+===== Early history =====
-Politically, Xornerian was a democracy, and for around a 100 years boasted a relatively high level of economic prosperity due to its location and natural resources. With time, however, the weakening quality of democracy and the growth of wealth inequality led to a number of riots, that eventually evolved into a civil war that ended up lasting for nearly a decade. The country was then subject to an aggressive conquest from [[Kareden]] armies, which, coupled with a betrayal from Yammoe, led to the country being conquered and becoming part of the [[mamkoon|Kingdom of Mamkoon]].
