John Matrouni besieges the city of Mesuesta, Chronicle of the Golden Horn, 9th century.

The Kaodsi (Messarian for "chaos") was a period in the history of the Mengriian Peninsula which lasted from 762 to 1507. The majority of the period was marked by warfare between the various states of the peninsula, including mainly the kingdoms of Ingria, Zyguria, Makhuria, Meretia and Odakhia, three incidents of the reestablishment of the Messarian Kingdom (only one of which was successful in permanently unifying the peninsula), and the Kuratid Invasion of 1210.

The beginning of the Kaodsi is usually placed marked at John I Matrouni's besieging of the Meretian city of Mesuesta in 762. John did so over the succession of the Meretian crown, which he had a claim to through his wife, Theodora of Metrokhi. [Placeholder]
