At the heart of Realm of Historia lies a unique synthesis of heritage preservation, artistic innovation, and technological advancement. Our mission is to create a sustainable ecosystem where culture and technology coalesce, forming a bridge between the past and the future. This editorial explores not only the strategic partnerships that power our project but also the core benefits and features that define Realm of Historia's essence.

The Pillars of Realm of Historia

Preservation and Restoration with NGOs: Our endeavor to preserve cultural heritage is bolstered by partnerships with NGOs like BNORRAN and Europa Nostra. These collaborations enable us to channel a portion of each NFT sale towards the preservation and research of historical sites. BNORRAN, now the "Armenian Organization for Preservation of Historical Monuments," has been pivotal in restoring numerous cultural landmarks. As a member of Europa Nostra, it extends its preservation mission across Europe, advocating for the safeguarding of cultural heritage.

Europa Nostra, a pan-European network, reinforces our commitment by connecting us to a broader movement of heritage conservation, celebrating and protecting cultural heritage across more than 40 countries. Discover more about BNORRAN's affiliation with Europa Nostra here, and learn about The Cradle's board members here.

Empowering Artists with YBAF: Our connection with the local art community, particularly through collaborations with organizations like the Yerevan Biennial Art Foundation (YBAF), is vital. This partnership ensures that our NFTs are not just digital assets but are imbued with local cultural and artistic significance. YBAF's initiatives, such as A1 Art Space and Latitude Art Space, provide platforms for artists to showcase their creativity, further enriching the Armenian and global art scenes.
