The Culmian Kingdom (Culmian: Kulmiyana rājya) was the government of most of the Culmia region and parts of what is now the Soltenish interior for a period spanning from 1700 until its dissolution by the Parsos in 1941. For much of its history the kingdom functioned as an absolute monarchy until 1891 where a Royal Council was established, at which point it became a constitutional monarchy until its final years.
The Culmian tribes that inhabited parts of modern Culmia and Soltenia came into conflict with the initial Canterian colonists as early as 1675, but not all interactions were violent. Colonists frequently intervened in inter-tribal conflicts. However, following the beginning of the unification wars by the Almaran Kingdom (1695-1712), several of the larger tribes worried about conflict with the increasingly powerful Almarans. Chief Nanda Kishor of the Nanda tribe successfully convinced most of the other tribes to join the Nanda with himself as King, forming the Culmian Kingdom.
In its initial years, the strength of the unified kingdom in the mostly uninhabited interior combined with the increased importance of trade successfully prevented the Almaran Kingdom from annexing the tribal territories, instead focusing on maintaining order in its newly occupied territories. This would initially lend support and credibility to the new kingdom, leading several of the nonaffiliated tribes to choose to join the kingdom. The kingdom would be further consolidated as time went on. In 1891, the establishment of the Royal Council transformed the kingdom to a constitutional monarchy.
The Parsos-led Union of Socialist Soltenish Republics invaded the kingdom in 1940, quickly overruning much of its forces and adding significant swaths of territory to Ariacalda. The last king, Nanda Pun II would flee and lead a guerilla resistance to the Soltenish occupation. On 1 December, 1941 Nanda Pun II would be captured by Soltenish forces. Ten days later, on 11 December, he would be executed and the Culmian Socialist Republic would be proclaimed.
