==History==
The land that is now the Grand Duchy of Elde was elevated to Ducal status in 1604 by the Monarch's Royal Council. The [[House of Chayka]] was on the Ducal Seat for 260 years before the Ducal Status was elevated again by the Monarch's Royal Council in 1864. At the time of elevation in rank among the other Member States of the United Kingdom of Ahrana to Grand Duchy, Elde was the only one to reach Grand Duchy, while others were either Dukedoms or Kingdoms. Elde was seen as a special area to the Ahranaian Imperial Crown due to the connections to the old times. The Dukes of Elde, however, had started to modernize the lands in the 1700s to help make the lands the crown jewel in the Ahranaian King's belt. The House of Chayka would rule the lands of Elde for another 41 years before the House of Elde would be placed on the Ducal Seat. The House of Elde would go on to rule the lands of Elde even after the Grand Duchy left the Union.

The land that is now the Grand Duchy of Elde was elevated to Ducal status in 1604 by the Monarch's Royal Council. The House of Chayka was on the Ducal Seat for 260 years before the Ducal Status was elevated again by the Monarch's Royal Council in 1864. At the time of elevation in rank among the other Member States of the United Kingdom of Ahrana to Grand Duchy, Elde was the only one to reach Grand Duchy, while others were either Dukedoms or Kingdoms. Elde was seen as a special area to the Ahranaian Imperial Crown due to the connections to the old times. The Dukes of Elde, however, had started to modernize the lands in the 1700s to help make the lands the crown jewel in the Ahranaian King's belt. The House of Chayka would rule the lands of Elde for another 41 years before the House of Elde would be placed on the Ducal Seat. The House of Elde would go on to rule the lands of Elde even after the Grand Duchy left the Union.

In 1912 the Nationalists came to power in the Government of Ahrana. Because of this change, the Grand Duchy of Elde and the Kingdom of Uppsund did not wish to remain a Member State of the United Kingdom of Ahrana while Nationalists held power again. Nationalists had gained power in the 1850s till the Monarch intervened and sacked that government in the name of Peace and Stability, however this time that would not be the case. In 5 June 1912 that the Nationalists declared the United Kingdom of Ahrana a Republic under the control of the Nationalist Government.

Since the independence of Elde the Government went on a rapid modernization effort to turn Elde into Modern Economy as well as Infrastructure and many other things, as the Ahrana went through wars and strife's and famines Elde was prospering. In the 1980s however the economy of Elde hit a crash and the entire system destabilized, aid came from Uppsund and Ahrana respectfully in hopes that everything would recover. It would take 12 years for the Grand Duchy to recover from the Market Crash of 1981. Since 1993 the Economy has gently met the demands that have been asked, and in 2002 it was announced by the Government that Elde had officially recovered and was on its way to beat what the economists thought was impossible.
