Kingdom of Enadia

The Kingdom of Enadia was a former nation located in the Enadian continent. It was founded in 181 BC, and ended in 1728 AD. It was one of the largest nations in the history of Tarra.

Etymology
The name Enadia comes from the ancient Enadii word, endna, meaning "trader".

Early History
The Kingdom of Enadia was founded in 181 BC, by a mix of Latrovii and Enadii, the remnants of the Enadii Trading Civilization. In the 150s BC, they conquered the Northurii tribe. In 4 AD, they began trading with the Kingdom of Illiricium. In the following years, the Vardii and Yawii established Khanates, and Enadia did not like that there were now other countries to compete with, and invaded them in 85 AD. However, the war proved long and brutal, so they came to a compromise, where the Enadii would annex part of their territory, but they would stay independent. In 455, they disagreed about trade rights with Illiricium, and conquered them in 466.

Invasion of the Horde
In 925, the horde of Geonan entered Enadia and started conquering. By 936, they had conquered the Vardii, Yawii, Cadii and Mosii Khanates, becoming the sole rival to Enadia. There would be multiple invasions, but they all resulted in stalemates.

Enadian Golden Age
During the Enadian Golden Age (936-1480), science and philosophy flourished, particularly in Illiricium. The artist Cephas Brechadanysta (who was also the Mosii Khan-in-exile) produced many great works of art during this time. Official coins would start being made in 1256, instead of pure gold. The Enadii also discovered the Vustanan islands, and conquered them.

Slow Decline
In the 1480s, the conquered peoples rebelled, but they were put down. After this, the Enadian Golden Age was over, and the kingdom would have a slow decline. There would be no new breakthroughs in science, philosophy, or art. It would lead to the revolutions of the 1720s.

The End
In 1714, Illiricium would rebel, and they won by 1720, giving them independence. This inspired nationalists, and after revolutions occured, the kingdom was overwhelmed, and it collapsed in 1728. It's successor state is West Latrovia.
