Slavician History

Slavicland itself is only a 'recently' established nation, founded in 1936. However the states from which it was founded have existed since medieval times.

Medieval Times

The oldest founding state of Slavicland is that of Kargan, based in the remote northeastern corner of Slavicland, which now holds a border with the Serdica Combine. Kargan the state was founded by Wilhelm Kargan the II in 341 AD, and the founding of Slavicland began under his rule. His goal was to unite the various Slavician speaking lords, however, this was not embraced by the other lords and various groups of power in what is modern Slavicland. Kargan initiated a series of wars in an attempt to achieve his dream of a powerful nation under his banner, and his repeated attacks upon his neighbours led to the creation of multiple states to repel his advances, and in turn, each other's. The states of Vansity, Ronehark, Berthamane, Provosinad, and Serdicial were founded in various times between 371 and 391 AD, and quickly established themselves as powers in their own right, and the resulting tensions between the states would continue for several centuries.

War of Serdicial

Serdicial was easily the largest state in the territory in the late ninth century. With major gains in Kargan, Provosinad and Ronehark, Serdicial was threatening to establish hegemony in the Northeast. The army of Serdicial was easily large enough to overcome the combined forces of the remaining states. The states of Vansity, Ronehark, and Provosinad made an alliance and went to war in 899 AD, triggering the War of Serdicial.
