===Pre-Riamese Swinas===
The Kingdom of Swinas was officially established in 1276 AD, but the history of the territories inside of Swinas date far back. We begin with the Yetubans, who founded an empire spanning through much of Northern Swinas. Their ethnic origin appears to be Nordinselli, but shared Swinnic Culture influence due to the areas they conquered. After a series of conflicts against the native tribal nations against the Yetubans, they would retreat to the North-East of Swinas, but leaving behind remnants of their culture.
Before the arrival of the Riamese colonizers, the deserts of South Swinas were controlled by the Kawhaibia Dynasty, an indigenous tribe with a rich history and culture. The Kawhaibia people had developed unique methods of survival and adaptation to the harsh desert environment, and had built a prosperous civilization. The last emperor of the Kawhaibia Dynasty was Emperor Annikki, who, according to local accounts, politely handed the Riamese the crown and walked away. This act of peaceful surrender allowed for a relatively smooth transition of power and allowed the Kawhaibia people to maintain a significant degree of autonomy and cultural preservation under the rule of the Riamese colonizers. Today, the legacy of the Kawhaibia Dynasty continues to play an important role in the cultural identity of South Swinas and its people.
 
One of these remnants was a city state know at the time as Kirchena. Kirchena was a mainly Swinnic City-State, but inherited some of the Nordinselli Culture left behind by the Yetuban Empire. Kirchena originally inherited a more Feudal Hierarchy of Government and Civilization, and would have 7 Kings. The first King, who was also the founder of Kirchena, was


=== Independence ===
== Military ==
'''The Unitary Republic of Swinas''', wasn't always a unitary republic. It was a colony of '''Riamo''', until 1915 when Riamo began releasing many of its colonies. Upon receiving independence, the country had a referendum on what political system they should use. It was decided that the country would be a Federal Republic. This system was chosen because it would ensure that the different regions of the country would have some degree of autonomy and representation in the government. However, the country's political system was not set in stone and it was possible for the country to change its system at any time if the citizens deemed it necessary. In fact, the country eventually decided to change the system and became a unitary republic, as it is today.
The Swinnic Military has been an integral part of the nation since the Duchy of Cresta's inception. Today, the Swinnic Military has 3 branches; the Swinnic Ground Forces, the Swinnic Air Force, the Swinnic Navy. Each branch usually has sub-divisions within it, such as the Swinnic Air Force, which has a Bomber, Close Air Support, Para-Trooper, and Fighter sub-division. The Swinnic Ground Forces include an Artillery, Tank, Anti-Air, and Infantry sub-division. The Swinnic Navy includes the Coast Guard, Naval Air, and Marine sub-division. The main Swinnic Navy is what you would expect from a navy. The Swinnic Military also contains a special forces division, the Spezialeinheiten.

=== Amelia Norris ===
The politics of the Kingdom of Swinas is largely defined by two major political parties; them being the Swinnic Liberal Movement, and the Swinnic Nationalist Movement, each with their own goals and visions of how the country should operate. The Swinnic Liberal Movement is a movement based on the idea of Liberalism, whereas the Swinnic Nationalist Movement has a more nationalist and conservative outlook on Swinas.
During the elections of 2021, Amelia Norris, a Unitary Politician, ran for president of the formerly Federal Republic of Swinas. She campaigned on a platform of unity and modernization, emphasizing her commitment to improving the lives of all citizens and fostering a sense of national pride. Her campaign was fierce and competitive, as she faced several strong candidates from different political parties. Despite this, Amelia Norris emerged victorious, winning a majority of the votes in the election. With her victory, she became the 3rd woman to become president of Swinas. Her win was seen as a significant milestone in the country's political history, as it demonstrated the increasing participation and influence of women in the political sphere. Her presidency was marked by a number of significant reforms and achievements in areas such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure development, as well as uniting all the Swish provinces into one singular state.
 
===Swish Socialist Party===
Since 2016, there has been a significant increase in socialists in the government in Swinas. This trend is reflected in the growing popularity of socialist policies and ideas among the population, as well as the increased representation of socialists in local and national elections. In 2019, a socialist candidate even ran for president, though they were greatly outnumbered in support by other candidates from other parties. Despite this, the socialist candidate still managed to secure a significant number of votes, demonstrating the growing support for socialist ideas in the country. This trend has continued to evolve and the socialist party has become more influential in the government, and it is expected that in the future, the socialist party will continue to gain more support.

=== Swish Ram and Buckling===
Gold was the common currency in Swinas until 1788, when the absolute monarchy system would be abolished, and many would call for further modernization. So, the first Prime Minister of Swinas would call for the creation of an official common currency. The Swinnic Ram would be created as the paper currency of Swinas, and the Swinnic Buckling would be the metal currency of Swinas. Both were backed by gold.
For a brief period of time after independence in 1915, Swinas kept the Riamese Currency. Though with help from the Riamese created the Swish Ram, named after Swinas' old goat religion.
After establishing its own currency, Swinas also establishing the Swish Buckling, for the paying of non-dollar increments.

===North Swinas===
Swinas contains 2 major rivers, them being the Dandora and the Kishwara. The Dandora is located in the north of Swinas and borders the Talsar Sea. The Kishwara, meanwhile, would be located at the West of Swinas, bordering the Parthenean Coast. These two rivers would be where the Duchy of Cresta (which would go on to unify Swinas), and the Duchy of Wheaton would be founded.
North Swinas is a region known for its temperate climate and diverse landscape. It serves as a major agricultural hub for the country, producing a variety of crops and livestock. The region is also home to Goatford, the capital and largest city of Swinas, as well as many smaller towns and villages that offer a unique glimpse into the culture and way of life of the residents. North Swinas plays a crucial role in the economic and cultural development of the country and is an important destination for both tourists and residents alike.
