The Kingdom of Seketan (Seketese: Rigal á Sécytanya) was a monarchy that existed in Seketan from the 9th century up until the Seketese Revolution. The kingdom as a recognizable polity reigned in Seketan during its medieval and early modern periods and endured as an institution until the Interwar period. It was at one point one of the most powerful states in the Nelborne and maintained its position as a middle power in Europe throughout most of its history.
The kingdom was proclaimed by Moress II of the Conils in 867, becoming the first King of Seketan and finalizing the Christianization of Seketan under the influence of Saint Gjenor and his legacy. The Noble Revolt of 1537 led King Fejer IV to establish the Hérvynsken and establish Seketan as one of the world's first parliamentary monarchies.
In 1765, with the death of Theo II and the ascension of Fjedor I, Seketan entered a personal union with the Kingdom of Alquiya. Fjedor IV and II in 1884 passed the Nelbec Imperial Acts, to which Alquiya and Seketan would become constituent countries under the Nelbec Empire.
