The Kingdom of Reynes is an early period of Reynesan history in which the city and surrounding territory were ruled by a monarchy. The majority of modern understanding of their time period comes from preserved secondary histories, namely from Senator Callipho Gellius's The Histories dated 120 BME and by Eligius Iovius incompleted works known as the History and Legend of Reynes which he stopped working on with of the end of his life in 21 ME. The kingdom's founding myth has it established in 834 BME near the Savio river on Carti Hill and the Kingdom period ends with the overthrow of the Reynesan monarchy during the Culling of the 101.
History
Arcehological evidence shows that human settlement around the city of Reynes had been ongoing since at least 1200 BME, however the mythical foundation of the Kingdom is given to be 834 BME, a date repeated in most historical references due to its importance in Reynesan Religion. In the mythical founding of the city is said to have been by its first king, Velthur Tarquinisa Valashna, who named the city after his beloved son, Reynes Velthurla Valashna was killed fighting a barbarian tribe in roughly 850 BME.
