The vast majority of the country is located contiguously in Template:Stratea, with the Template:Prussian-Polish Commonwealth being the nation's only land neighbor. Ancient groups of loosely-connected hunter-gatherer peoples had lived in the area that encompasses modern-day Gagium since 20,000 years ago, with a variety of native civilizations and empires existing up to the 16th century. Colonization primarily from XXCOUNTRY and to a lesser extent XXCOUNTRY2 began in the 16th century, but didn't pick up until the later half of the 17th century. After the colony of Gagium made a peaceful agreement with XXCOUNTRY, the nation became independent in 1822 under a loose confederation. A large portion of the current constitution was adapted in 1835 with the birth of the Kingdom and Commonwealths of Gagium.
Through several years of conquest and purchasing of colonial land, Gagium had acquired significant portions of northern CONTINENT by 1854. A brief power struggle between King Template:Dimitri Rodier (Who was widely seen as incompetent) and republican factions of the government resulted in the monarchy being weakened with the constitutional amendment of 1867, followed by the ban of slavery later the same year.
