**Toor** /tʊər/ was an early [[tarnaria|Tarnarian]] civilization that existed for three centuries at the end of the first and beginning of the second revolution. It became exceedingly wealthy due to its discovery, development and commercialization of mining.

===== Etymology =====

"Toor" means "warrant" or rather "warrant granted through vision" in Jabi, and reflects the justification that many Tarnarian dynasties and clans have traditionally put forth for their rule. Based on the theology of [[Xaewoon]], a Toor is a warrant to lead people, because the ruler has special insight about the right path (the Xaewoon).

The Dolysoh dynasty, that had founded and ruled Toor for most of its existence, placed much greater emphasis on the religious justification than the ruling families of [[Asdoh]] or [[Barud]] in the south.

After the downfall of Toor in the end of the 1st CSR, [[Gened]] referred to [[Moroh|Mōroh]] as "the true Toor". With the establishment of [[Stogen]] in the 2nd CSR, nomadic kingdoms of Tarnaria began to refer to their kingdoms as toors.

===== History =====

Toor was established at the end of the 18th century of the first revolution by Sopoh Dolysoh. Over the course of the next century, the Dolysoh dynasty has expanded Toor, eventually subjugating [[Laeooy Coast]] and the area which today is known as [[Commonground]], while continuing to fight for its integrity against the Negy, the Oaleed and the Baruds in the south and the tribes from [[Teamatian]] in the west.

The rule of Dolysoh was overtaken by the Tōrmoh clan in the beginning of the second revolution, and [[King Tōrmoh]] managed to finally defeat the Negy and displace Oaleed to the south of Mantar hill.

The state of Toor came to an end circa 75 SR when [[Keetoh]] and [[Gened]] started the serf uprising and established Commonground in 72 SR, which eventually led to the secession of [[Gaskal]] and [[Deeras]] and the economic and political downfall of Toor's capital [[Chusoh]].

Toor was succeeded by the Five Kingdoms of [[Mōroh]].
