Etymology
The origin of the name of Beatavic comes from the word Beatóvïc used by tribes in what is now Beatavic to describe the area they settled in. The meaning remains disputed however most sources claim it means Temperate Mountainside
History
Prehistory
The oldest traces of human life in what is now Beatavic date from approximately 800,000 years ago. For over 2000 years, the inhabitants were confronted with harsh weather conditions as inhabitants settled in what is now northern Neskauhólmur along with living a Nomadic hunter-gatherer life.
Areas of Beatavic independent of Outas control were referred to as Magna Beatavici. Modern scholars sometimes refer to the Magna Beatavici as Free Beatavic or Beatavic Barbaricum. As parts of Outas social engineering efforts, large numbers of Beatavicians were settled within Outas territory in order to prevent revolts by resident tribes.
Empire of Beatavic
The Kingdoms of Acdian and Artaskan tribes held varying degrees of control over the Beatavician expanse from 500-982 AD, with constant warfares plaguing the region. In 1012, Florentijn Stuiverman began his conquest of The Kingdom of Artaska and established the Beatavician empire. After conquering southern Artaska and northern Acdia, Florentijn Stuiverman would conquer Acdia and slaughtered the populous, approximately 1/5 of Acdia's population were killed in what is known as the Great Acdia Slaughter.
In 1102, Korneel Fijnewever conquered the Kingdom of Birnir, but was pushed back in 583.
Constantio Empire
In 1599, Constantio invaded Beatavic and swiftly conquered it under Justano II, who had previously led a brutal conquest of neighboring Cechena. Beatavic remained a vestige for the Constantioan empire for more than 200 years, as Constantioans made use of Beatavician innovations in road-making, aqueduct construction, and adopted some cultural elements like cuisines, music, and art.
Independence
Beatavic War of Independence
In 1820, as the Great Nortuan War was breaking out across territories of the Constantioan Empire, rebellious factions in Beatavic declared independence from Constantio and began to wage a guerilla conflict against imperial forces. In the process of the conflict, a prominent general named -insert name- annexed the southeastern shoreline region of Gadyural, giving Beatavic direct access to the Sotoa Sea. Imperial forces withdrew fully from Beatavic on January 5th, 1822
Shortly after establishing a government, the Constitution of Beatavic, and a permanent capital city in Gran Telea, Nije-Twilhaar Hengelaar, a former merchant and rebel fighter, won the 1824 Beatavic prime ministeral election in a landslide.
In 1863 while Prime Minister Naud Essen was riding his horse, he was fatally stabbed by an assailant, marking the the first assassination of a Beatavician prime minister.
