'''Cadenzan Kamalbia''' ([[Khadenz language|Khadenz]]: ''Khamalb'') was a {{wp|self-governing colony|self-governing dependency}} of the [[Cadenza|Maritime Republic of Cadenza]] between 1618 and 1814 and a [[earldoms of Cadenza|Cadenzan earldom]] from 1620. It consisted of the former territory of Exponential Kamalbia, which was sold to Cadenza as part of the Peace of Portus Regalis that concluded the [[War of the Magpie and the Dragon]]. For almost two centuries it was the main source of diamonds and other mineral wealth for the Cadenzan empire. The earldom was occupied by [[Berique|Beriquois]] forces during the [[Bernadottic Wars]] and was ceded in 1814.

==History==
Prior to becoming a Cadenzan territory, southern Kamalbia had been a possession of the [[Empire of Exponent|Exponential Empire]]. In 1615, during the War of the Magpie and the Dragon, its capital was [[Siege of Castrum Tiberium|attacked and seized]] by an army under [[Tariq Kimepra]], who went on to occupy the rest of the province. Exponent attempted and failed to dislodge the occupying force, and the territory was consequently sold as part of the Treaty of Portus Regalis in 1618. The capital, Ialica, was rebuilt as the city of Tyúregar. In 1620, the Earls Council voted to co-opt Admiral Kimepra as earl of Kamalbia and established the colony as a self-governing dependency.

In 1622, diamonds were discovered in Kamalbia, leading to an influx of mainly Cadenzan settlers. Tyúregar quickly grew to become a major port as the terminus for Cadenzan treasure ship routes.

[[Jakúba Kimepra]] undertook a series of administrative reforms upon his accession to the earldom. He authorised a map-making commission in 1790 which found the highest point in Kamalbia and named it [[Mount Kimepra]] in his honour. While Kamalbia was a Cadenzan possession, Mount Kimepra was the country's tallest mountain.
