The Imperial Diamond Fund of Diadochia is a vast collection of gems, jewelry and natural nuggets, used to decorate the Jewels that adorn members of the Imperial family of Diadochia. The Fund dates back to 1670 when it was established by Emperor Eric III of Diadochia on the advice of his wife the Empress, to store diamonds that were not apart of the crown Jewels, but jewels that he wanted to pass on none the less. The Imperial Diamond Fund is commonly refered to as the second Crown Jewels, because like the crown jewels they are held by the state and are held in trust.
