Geonan

The Horde of Geonan was a nation existing in Terra Dexter and Enadia from 864 to 2053. It's capital was Xol.

Etymology
Geonan never called themselves Geonan, they called themselves Xol. Geonan is Old Enadian for "great army."

The Beginning
In the 500s, the first records appear of 4 civilizations in the Xol Plateau, known as Xol, Henan, Suyxan, and Nazhrun. The most powerful was Xol, who was set apart from the rest by their idea of dominance and control. Eventually, the Xol chief Markopol took on the rest and united the Geonanians in 864. They then established an army and sent them westward. They found the kingdom of Speck-Menne, and annexed it in 868, forming the province of Spemenniw. When they found a mountain range, they refused to cross it and asked if they could go to the east instead. Furious, Markopol burned them all at the stake and created a New Army, only loyal to him. They crossed the mountains and encountered a civilization known as the Cadii Khanate. The Cadii, not ready for an invasion across the mountains, easily fell to the army, becoming the Province of Cadiw. They also encountered the Kingdom of Enadia in the north, but Markopol admired their culture and architechture and refused to attack. Instead, he chose to conquer a kingdom not far to the west, known as the Yawii Khanate. They recieved support from Enadia, but still fell to the superior Geonanian army. He then moved his forces to the neighbouring Vardii Khanate. To his surprise, he met a large Enadian army there, and the year 920 Battle of Hresta occured. While Geonan won, Markopol was killed, and his son Aranac succeeded him as chief.

Control
After the battle of Hresta, Geonan annexed the Vardii Khanate. They stayed with the land until 936, when they started a massive push westward and discovered the Mosii Khanate, which they quickly invaded. They then sent settlers to the conquered territories to make them purely Geonanian. There was never a lot of marriage between them though. In Mesiw, in fact, the Governor was under so much pressure that they made marrying Geonanians illegal. They then began asserting their control, founding a lot of cities. In Mesiw, they renamed Mechro to Markopolis. Aranac died in 967. In 1021, they went south and conquered Agnarida, along with their puppet state Speck-Mena, making the provinces of Hanitiw and Speckmeniw. All of the territories remained firmly in Geonanian control until the 1730s.

Collapse
In the 1730s, the Commonwealth of the Argimin wanted to end Geonanian influence in the region, and slowly occupied territory until they completely blocked off Enadia from Geonan. Nearbly Cadians soon revolted, and all the occupied people caught wind and also rebelled. Geonan then left Enadia completely, returning to Terra Dexter.

The End
For 300 years, the Geonanians began training their army for a full-fledged attack on Enadia. It came in the 2050s, where they crossed the mountains and reached Cadia in 2052. However, MossW soon dropped a nuclear bomb on the military base, and they occupied all of Geonan. They then broke apart the Horde into multiple successor states, with Enadia rapidly sending settlers there to leave behind the influence of Geonan forever.
