History

Prehistory

Ancient History

Roughly within the area which is modern day Timeria, ten clans were spread throughout the area and were loosely united through a warrior system. Before being united, the clans fought amongst each other for control and would raid nearby neighbors. In some cases, clans would work together to raid merchants on the Bezdekia Road. Much of the fighting was between the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan. Both clans fought for control over what is now the Forever and Ryxyns Coast regions of present-day Timeria.

Post-Classical History

During this time many Timerian began to foster a sense of unity and the Merian Unity formed between the southern tribes of the Meria region. Following this many tribes in Timeria stopped warring with each other and the spread of cultures and commerce began. From 772-797 is considered to be a transitional period prior to the rule of King Jordan.

King Jordan is considered to be the founder of Timeria and one of the greatest political figures in history. Unlike many royals King Jordan was not born into royalty and worked his way up. In Timeria warriors were considered the highest socioeconomic class and Jordan had rose to be the top warrior within all of Timeria. Jordan married the daughter of a powerful Chief of the Senju clan, this created a union between the two clans and ended long term fighting between the two. Soon after the two clans formed a peace other surrounding clans followed suit, including the clans from Meria.

Modern History

Early in the modern era, many foundations of modern Timerian society were formed. Many had expected the union to fall apart after the death of King Jordan, but the nation had continued to progress with relative avoidance of political instability. Most of the Timerian growth was uninterrupted as many developing nations and fledgling empires were focused in East Adula and Euronia. However, in 1830, Timerian naval power participated in coalition activities at the helm of the Barretoan Wars and assisted in battling Skithan imperial fleets in the Emmiria Sea.

In 1951, Timeria committed support to the Allied Forces in the World War in the form of supplies and small detachments of fighter squadrons. Across Timeria production increased and manufacturers worked to meet the demands of the allied forces. Dragonwater became the production capital as the city produced over 1/4th of all exports. Dragon Manufacturing led other manufacturing through its groundbreaking manufacturing methods and efficiency

In 1978, Timeria joined the Coalition of Crown Albatross.

21st Century

On May 6th, 2011, Timeria became a founding member of the Trans Adula Fair Commerce Accord, an economic alliance that incentivized international cooperation in Adula.

Geography

Timeria is located in Adula, bordered by the Albarine Sea to the east, Azil, Kantoalina, and Somodi along its western border, Artegana to the north, and Austrolis in the south.
