Carsella, officially the Federal Republic of Carsella, is a nation in south Thuadia, on the coastline of the Hagalaz Ocean, and it borders Torvon to the north. Before the arrival of the slavs in the 3rd century on the current Carsellan space, the area was home to established tribes from the east that took the name of Saciens, with a culture similar to the romance group. During the 3rd century, the migration of slavs happened throughout the Carsellan space, migrating from the north to the central region. The Romance cultures that once existed in those lands intermingled with the slavs to create the Carsi culture. In the central sea side region, slavs had a much heavier influence, thus creating the Kejteri culture, which is considered as a branch of the Carsi group with slightly more slavic roots, which is especially noticed in their language. The Slavic migration stopped at the Veghea river, where the pure romance culture remained untouched, leading to the genesis of the Esacians. In the 9th century, the Carsi and Kejteri established duchies that would dominate the region until the 13th century when the Kingdom of Carsella conquered all the Kejteri and Carsi duchies. During the 15th and 16th centuries the Kingdom of Esacia and the Kingdom of Carsella went through multiple large scale conflicts, as the Esacians mercilessly fought for their freedom. In 1598 the Esacian capital of Gregea fell to the Carsi infantry, marking the start of the "Great Carsellan Tsardom" period. This age lasted until 1879, when the Esacians got independence through the "War of 1877". In 1901 the downfall of the Carsellan tsardom was evident as the nation of Cercia got independece too with the help of Esacia in the "War of the two battles".

During the "Carsi-Ageragan" wars in 1947 the Carsellan Tsardom lost the territories of Kejden and Vodjaz. In 1947 the first Carsellan internal conflicts with the anti-tsarist partisans errupted, yet the rebels didn't have succes in fighting the monarchist armies. In 1970 the combined forces of UPF (United Partisan Front) took over the state and established the government that Carsella has to this day. Through 1971-1974 the Carsi pan-nationalist grew to the point that in 1973 through the 'Carsi Union' referendum Vodjaz reunited with Carsella, and in 1974, through a invadion with almost no opposition, Carsella regained the Kejteri territory. In 1978 the Republic of Carsella declared war on Ageraga for the purpose of reassembling the former lands of the Great Carsella Tsardom. In 1978 the conflict ends with the Carsi victory, establishing in 1980 the "Greater Carsella". In 2005, through multiple reforms regarding the separatism in Ageraga, the Federal Republic of Carsella came to be, as the Esacian region received more autonomy in their governance.

History

Prehistory

The space of Carsella was first inhabitedby in aproximately 20000 BC by migrating tribes from the east. Most of the tribes left in the following centruries, although some of them remained in the area, being named as "Saciens". The Saciens populated the northern, western and southern areas of the Carsellan space. The East-Central seaside region was sparsley populated by the Saciens due to the thick tropical forests that neutralized any attempt in trying to live in the zone, even though some historians would argue that Saciens were present in the region for a short period of time before they went back to the areas mentioned before. A few people, including historian Zota Gerge, believe that there was a meaningful presence of humans in the area, even finding evidence for a separate culture from the Saciens (the Pecregs) that would've inhabited the region and perhaps to have driven out the Saciens, this theory is very improbable.  The existance of the Saciens is affirmed in archeological sites like Keva Cave, Jert site and the most clear example: the Gerva site. Throughout the existance of the Saciens, they were never unified under a state, and neither did they establish any urban settlements (at least until the 5th century AD in the Esacian lands). The oldest known city in the current Carsi space was established by the Slavs in the 4th century, in aproximately 370-380 AD.

Reimagination of a Kiv made in 2009

While the Saciens did not establish any cities, by the time the slav migration happened in the 3rd century, some sort of establishments were made by the various decentralised tribes. These establishments were known as "Kivs". The Kivs were small settlments, believed to be of aroud 100-200 people, usually located on the two sides of a river, surrounded by fortifications of two walls made of logs. Usually a rudimentary wooden bridge would be placed over the river.

Antiquity

In the 3rd century AD, populations of slavs from the space of Torvon migrated south along the Sacien populated vallies. In various historical sources it is recollected that most of the slav populations migrated from the noble house of Zois from the Dolgi Zaliv region. These Slavs would go on to populate the lands of the Saciens south to the Veghea river and especially populate the central area of the Carsi space. These Slavs would intermingle with the Sacien peoples and eventually create the culture of the Crasi and the central branch of Kejteri. If the Slavs ever tried or stabilised in the southern current Esacian region is still debated amongst historians, with serious ammounts of proof backing both the intervention and the disinterest of the Slavs (it is to be noted that in multiple Carsi nationalist environments it is brought up as a fact that the migrating slavs were the ones that placed the building blocks for the Esacian states in the south, believing this to be the explanation for multiple cities with slavic names in Esacia). The exact limit of where the slavs stopped their migration to the west of the Carsi space is unknown as there is no historical source mentioning any specific borders or landmarks.

With the arrival of the slavs came the first established states in the region. These semi-tribal states would be under the rule of the Zois noble house, as it was held under their control in the 4th to the 5th centuries when they eventually retreated because of economic and political reasons combined with the constant attacks from the Esacians and the "free slavs". These states would be ruled by slavic cheifs, some part of the Zois house or other that held considerable influence in the region through rudimentary trade or prestige. Some important vassal states would be Vodjaz, Jedren, Grogui and Kervi, usually named after their rulers or their surroundings. Even though these semi-tribal states were under the house of Zois, it was common that these establishments would battle for supremacy over the region and to take the place as the most important vassal in the Carsi space, in the hopes that they would be awarded supremacy over the entire region. During these times would be the period for the first cities in the carsi space to be settled, as adventurers would scout for favourable places near rivers to build a establishment of their own. The homes inside these cities would most often be built out of sedimentary stones found on the seaside, usually stuck together with multiple layers of mud. With the appearance of the cities, the first temples for worshipping Staint Peter. These temples usually followed a standard of a grand central dome with a small opening in the middle and a small pond to let water form the rain fall in. This water would be later blessed by the preists and used in their practices. Around the dome would be four other separate rooms placed in the shape of a cross facing the east. These temples would usually not be that big, as most of the times the temples would be built last in the making of a new settlement, and so resources usually weren't enough for a grand church. After the 5th century, the Zois house retreated out of the lands due to the great expenses needed to protect the region from the constant attacks of the "free slavs" and the Esacians. Through their retreat, the cities in the Carsi area remained stateless, without much protection or a government figure that could rule them. A true independent state in the Carsi space would't come until the 9th century AD.
