The history of the region of Swinas as a whole can be loosely traced back to 300 BCE, when nomads began settling in Eastern Swinas and ancient religions began starting in Western Swinas. In the early history of Swinas, the desertpeople were different from the plainspeople. The desertpeople were indigenous Swish, whilst those in the plains came from other areas. The desertpeople believed in different gods and spoke a different language than the plainspeople. One empire from the plains from 150 BCE, the Cristataen Empire, would wish to unite the plains and conquer the desert afterwards. Aries Sabinus, the Emperor of the Cristataen Empire, would raise 4 legions for the conquest of the plains. The Cristataen Empire was the most centralized empire in the plains, and they were able to conquer the plains easily, using new ways of war which had never been seen before by the plainspeople, and building upon the innovations of other tribes in the plains to make new innovations. | The history of the region of Swinas as a whole can be loosely traced back to 300 BCE, when nomads began settling in Eastern Swinas and ancient religions began starting in Western Swinas.

History
Rise of the Swish People
The history of the region of Swinas as a whole can be loosely traced back to 300 BCE, when nomads began settling in Eastern Swinas and ancient religions began starting in Western Swinas. In the early history of Swinas, the desertpeople were different from the plainspeople. The desertpeople were indigenous Swish, whilst those in the plains came from other areas. The desertpeople believed in different gods and spoke a different language than the plainspeople. One empire from the plains from 150 BCE, the Cristataen Empire, would wish to unite the plains and conquer the desert afterwards. Aries Sabinus, the Emperor of the Cristataen Empire, would raise 4 legions for the conquest of the plains. The Cristataen Empire was the most centralized empire in the plains, and they were able to conquer the plains easily, using new ways of war which had never been seen before by the plainspeople, and building upon the innovations of other tribes in the plains to make new innovations.
The conquest of the Swish Plains would be completed, and the Cristataen Empire would next use their legions to invade the Swish Desert, which was much larger than the plains. The desertpeople would also put up a fierce fight, as they opposed the plainspeople, who they saw as the enemy. After much struggle, however, much of the Swish Desert would be conquered by the Cristataen Empire, and would go on to influence much of modern Swish Culture. Eventually, a succession crisis would lead to the collapse of the empire in 24 CE, and would see the rise of new nations and organizations. Many city-states would be created, who would be united under Swish Leagues. One of these leagues, the Crestan League, would be led by the city of Capcres.
Capcres would organize the Pan-Crestan Conference, in which all of the city-states of the League would meet in Capcres. The envoy of Capcres would begin to discuss plans of further centralization, as the Firinan League would begin showing hostility to the Crestan League. After the conference, Capcres would gain further control of the league, as all of the city-states of the league agreed to become feudatories of Capcres. Following this, Capcres would declare war on the Firinan League and would lay siege to the city which led the league. Following this, a fierce battle would occur. The Firinan League would attempt to use shock action tactics to convince the Crestans that they had a large army than they did, and the Crestans themselves used Single Envelopment tactics, which surprised the enemy and led to a Crestan Victory. The rest of the Firinan League would surrender to the Crestan League, and they would be integrated into the Crestan League, before eventually the whole league was integrated into Capcres.
After this, Capcres culture would also begin to influence the rest of Swinas, as they were a regional power within Swinas. However, the Capcres hegemony would fade away and their territories would be reduced by other nations in Swinas. As communication technology became better, and due to the Cristataen Empire, the divide between the plainspeople and desertpeople was slowly disappearing. Because of this, desertpeople and plainspeople culture was also integrating with each other, creating a unique blend which altogether shaped modern-day Swish culture.

Modern Swish History
By the 1400's, the Kingdom of Swinas was a prosperous kingdom which was caught up to the world technologically and culturally. However, the King of Swinas still held absolute power over Swinas, and by the mid-to-late 1500's, many found this an issue. The King's Son, Alberico Rosiello, would be the darling of the Swish People, and many would support his populist ideas. His father, who was still king, believed that his power should remain absolute, and was not willing to transfer some of his power to the people. So, Prince Rosiello along with the people would enter the King's Palace and force the King to transfer his power to his son, who would then go on to make reforms to the monarchy and transfer some of his power to the people. In 1564, the Kingdom of Swinas transitioned from a Absolute to Constitutional Monarchy, and a senate was established with 100 seats, and people could vote on who to elect into it, and they passed legislation.
The transition would be received well by the Swish People, but by 1643, a new King named King Oscuro II would seek to consolidate his power, and he would begin using the military to repel certain legislation from the senate from being passed. The people, not in favor of this, would revolt, and the King would abdicate. In order to prevent a new King from taking too much power, the Kingdom of Swinas would transform into the Federal Republic of Swinas. The Senate was given greater power, and the powers of the king would be shared by two people who were the First and Second Consuls. The provinces were established, and this system has been in place for 400 years with little change.
