== Etymology ==
The name of the state derivers from White Croatia - a region roughly corresponding to the modern borders of Chrobatia - from which part of the White Croats emigrated to the Balkan Peninsula. The remaining population of the tribe would keep close ties with the neighbouring Inkamians, with cultural differences between the two gradually fading away. A unified identity between them emerged around the 11th century, however the historical name of the land has been maintained since.
== History ==
Due to its location on the Inkamian-Polish border, the region has been subject to several disputes between the two kingdoms. Originally established as the within the Seniorate Province of the Polish Crown, it was conquered by Přemyslav of Tešin - the first king of Inkami. Thanks to its location on the Vistula river, the town of Sudomir (modern-day Sudomirce) has quickly emerged as an important trade center. It has also served as a key fort in various Polish-Inkamian conflicts. 
Following the partitions of Poland, the region has experienced a wave of Polish immigrants, which significantly influenced regional culture. Around the same time, Chrobatia has began its industrialisation, with cities of Řešov and Tarnov emerging as two other important population centers to the south of Sudomirce.
Modern borders of the region have been confirmed by the 1948 Inkamian Constitution.
