Originally before their unification the Distanic confederacy were 3 separate nations, The Kingdom of Diastin which was the largest of the 3, The Republic of Bosnaria and the Gerantric Republic. After centuries of being separate the 3 separate powers and with growing relations, heightened senses of united nationalism and the diplomatic prosess of their king, the 3 powers were unified under the banner of Distan and their king, Cyneheard Aðalsteinn in the year 1482, signifying both the Commonwealth of Distan and causing the first recorded age of prosperity for the new nation.

During the First golden age the fledgling commonwealth made great strides in the industrial and agriculteral aspects as well as in the fields of science. During this time increased urbanisation lead to many new cities and great construction efforts such as the dam and reservoir in Hartanien and the many roads leading between the growing cities. In addition thanks to strides in medicine, the new unity the nation had and the optimism of the future the population experienced a boom which allowed for the unparalleled growth that was experienced in this age.
