Various Ladanic tribes have inhabited the Northwestern parts of Estere since classical antiquity, particularly in the [[Westesterian Lowlands]]. The first incursions of Ladanians into Eastern Estere and the [[Tiburnian Empire]] started happening around 2BC. The major migrations of Ladanians, which were one of the causes for the fall of the Western Tiburnian Empire, started in early 4th century. The {{wp|South Slavs|White Ladanian tribes}} formed many small regional states from which later emerged the three main historical White Ladanian states - [[Kaikavia]], [[Miakia]] and [[Ledavia]]. By the 6th century a cult stemming from the {{wp|Slavic paganism|Ladanian Folk Religion}} became prominent among White Ladanian states, and was soon accepted by many other Ladanian rulers in order to battle the influence of the West and [[Trinitarianism]] which most of the Ladanian lords despised. By the 8th century this cult became the Vsobogist religion and quickly spread throughout other Ladanic lands. This caused a division between the White Ladanians among which the Kaikavians and Miakians are Vsobogists and the Ledavians are followers of the Trinitarian faith . This division was the cause of many religious wars, and still has an influence on Beloladanian politics. | ||
The Ladanian states have endured throughout the ages sociopolitical collapse and numerous invasions, but by the 10th century, numerous rival duchies and maritime city states and voivodeships, rose to great prosperity. Beginning in the 11th century [[Zhupa Confederation]] was formed which was a loose confederation of White Ladanian states. The number of these states gradually declined as the [[Miakian Kingdom]], [[Ledavian Banate]] and the [[Kaikavian Voivodeship]] rose to prominence and absorbed other small states. This centralisation of power in the confederation caused numerous conflicts including the [[Great Beloladanian War]] which effectively ended the confederation in 16th century.

Beloladania (Beloladanian: Белоладанија), officially the Republic of Beloladania (Beloladanian: Република Белоладанија) is a sovereign state in southwest Estere, located on the planet of Eordus. It borders Ithalia to the north and Thessalia to the south. The capital Belo Brdo is one of the largest cities in Southwestern Estere. Beloladania has around 20 million people living in it, most of which are adherents to the Orthodox Vsobogism, but there are also significant populations of Trinitarianists and Bogumil Vsobogists respectively. The official language of the country is Beloladanian but people also speak Kaikavian and the South Miakian dialect.
Inhabited since the Old Stone Age, the territory of modern-day Beloladania faced Ladanic migrations to the Southwestern Estere between the third and fourth centuries, establishing several regional states during the early Middle Ages. Various Ladanic tribes have inhabited the Northwestern parts of Estere since classical antiquity, particularly in the Westesterian Lowlands. The first incursions of Ladanians into Eastern Estere and the Tiburnian Empire started happening around 2BC. The major migrations of Ladanians, which were one of the causes for the fall of the Western Tiburnian Empire, started in early 4th century. The White Ladanian tribes formed many small regional states from which later emerged the three main historical White Ladanian states - Kaikavia, Miakia and Ledavia. By the 6th century a cult stemming from the Ladanian Folk Religion became prominent among White Ladanian states, and was soon accepted by many other Ladanian rulers in order to battle the influence of the West and Trinitarianism which most of the Ladanian lords despised. By the 8th century this cult became the Vsobogist religion and quickly spread throughout other Ladanic lands. This caused a division between the White Ladanians among which the Kaikavians and Miakians are Vsobogists and the Ledavians are followers of the Trinitarian faith . This division was the cause of many religious wars, and still has an influence on Beloladanian politics.
The Ladanian states have endured throughout the ages sociopolitical collapse and numerous invasions, but by the 10th century, numerous rival duchies and maritime city states and voivodeships, rose to great prosperity. Beginning in the 11th century Zhupa Confederation was formed which was a loose confederation of White Ladanian states. The number of these states gradually declined as the Miakian Kingdom, Ledavian Banate and the Kaikavian Voivodeship rose to prominence and absorbed other small states. This centralisation of power in the confederation caused numerous conflicts including the Great Beloladanian War which effectively ended the confederation in 16th century. The war ended in a peace treaty which guaranteed sovereignty to Miakia, Ledavia and Kaikavia and was meant to make their borders permanent.
The spread of Pan-Ladanian ideas caused the Beloladanian Spring which was key in the forming of the current Beloladanian state. The Beloladanian spring caused a coup in Miakia which later on became the core of the Beloladanian Unification Movement. In 1825 the Pan-Ladanian organisations made a revolution in Kaikavia, the Miakian army supported this effort and entered Kaikavia to help the Pan-Ladanian revolutionaries. These events are better known as the Bloodless Revolution as not a single person was injured during it, instead the Kaikavian army greeted the Miakian one as brothers. The Woiwode of Kaikavia abdicated his throne and the Kaikavian parliament voted to unify with Miakia thus making the Miak-Kaikavian Kingdom. The newly created kingdom was the corner stone of the future Beloladanian unification, this of course was seen as a threat in the East, in Ledavia which started a war with Miak-Kaikavia known as The Beloladanian War of Unification. In 1848, the Kingdom of Beloladania was proclaimed, dominated by Miakia.
Etymology
The name Beloladania is a composite word made up of belo and Ladania. The Ladanic word belo means 'white' while Ladania denotes the 'land of the Ladanic peoples'. Therefore a translation would be White Ladania which denotes that it is the land of the southern Ladanians - The White Ladanians.
History
Medieval times
