The Kingdom of Adwinia (Hesurian: Königreich Aduhern) was a sovereign state and Mascyllary kingdom that succeeded the powerful Duchy of Adwinia with the merger of the Duchy of Phalagay in 1710 and continued to play a major role in Mascyllary politics until 1923. After the Treaty of Karlsburg that formalized the unification of both states, Albert I of Adwinia was proclaimed King in Breisgau on 1 August 1710. The territorial extent of Adwinia encompassed the Duchy of Adwinia, numerous secularised territories, the Bishopric of Großbeeren and parts of Gotia and Mernia. While the kingdom was federal in theory, Adwinia and the Sohlnar monarchy dominated its policies and ruled throughout its existence.
With a gradual interest in expansionism and imperialism, combined with the ambitions to unify Mascylla under Adwinish rule, it sought to contain its main rival, the Kingdom of Aldia through much of the 18th century after it had ended political cooperation with the weakening Cuthish Empire. Escalating actions by both parties ultimately culminated into the War of the Five Kings which was a decisive blow to the Adwinian monarchy, being forced to resign from its power status and surrendering its sovereignty to the Mascyllary Kingdom in 1793. It continued to exist until 1923, when its last king Theodor VII was forced to abdicate and seek exile in Valimia following pressure by the Mascyllary Revolution after the Great War. With the establishment of the short-lived Adwinian Republic and finally State of Adwinia under the Crowned Republic of Mascylla, Adwinia was organized at last into a parliamentary democracy.
