The Hexarchy (六邦之治, rjuk-prong-tje-'ljegh) was a period in Themiclesian history from the 3rd c. BCE to 265 CE, defined by the rule of and intermittent warfare between six states in the heartland of modern-day Themiclesia. It follows the earlier Hecatihecosiarchy (百二十邦之治) and ends with unification under the Tsjins state in 265. This era saw the earliest centralization of political power in Themiclesia, and, borrowing extensively from Menghe, many later institutions were first introduced in this period; it is often thought of as an experimental and formative period of Themiclesian politics. The earliest received histories of Themiclesia date to this period.
