== History ==
==== Founding Era ====
In the early afternoon on April 17th, 2024, Vyani Gerat-Olea announced the creation of the Kingdom of Mydharii. The people of the area including some natives and settlers from Exousia rejoiced as their home had been given international recognition as their own country. Vyani established the town of Vyanium and made Ryver en Olea and Wize en Olea as his two second in commands. The Government Vyani created was entirely comprised of settlers, the local native population were given little say as to how the land was governed.
The new settlers in the territory from Exousia clashed with the local native populations. However, both people groups decided that they needed to work together in order to live out in the harsh mountains where they settled. The word of Voclari was spread to the natives, many of whom converted to the religion from ancient Eldham. The Mydharii settler faction was split between two religions, in the majority there was the Voclarists and the Makerists. Both sides clashed but eventually decided to work together because they had similar values and a similar attitude towards the natives. 
There was work to be done to uphold this brand-new nation, many issues had arisen fairly early in the nation's history. One of the said issues was their neighbors, settlers from Rathnir, called Seraphis they had made territorial claims that intersected with Mydharii's claims, thus tensions rose and eventually exploded into skirmishes along the borders, even extending into towns, the Seraphis forces even managed to injure a high-ranking government member Waffle who was rendered comatose. Tensions, however seemed to calm down when it looked like all-out war was brewing, this was because Sonderia, Seraphis's overlord nation stepped in and calmed things down, Warband, the leader of Sonderia didn't want war with Mydharii because he had become good friends with its leadership and wanted to maintain good relations. 
This good relationship led to Sonderia letting Mydharii invade Seraphis if they wished, Warband promising to not get involved. Wize hearing about this rallied an army with Ryver, both of them entered the city to find it abandoned, Seraphis had been tipped off that Mydharii was going to launch, and invasion and they had fled, leaving most of their possessions, the weak and sick were left behind, the Mydharii armed forces culled them all and stole their valuables, planting their flag on the rough soil, and thus ended Seraphis.
==== The Provisional Government Era ====
With King Vyani Gerat-Olea's continuing decline in health he declared a provisional government to be headed by Ryver, with his second in command being Wize. The both of them had to act quickly as the nation's stability was declining after the annexation of Seraphis. The first thing both had done was to move the capital city to Voclaria, this was done to centralize the government as the city was much larger and could sustain a larger government, it was also centrally located. Ryver then established Voclarianism as the official religion of Mydharii, which earned him the support from the majority faction in Mydharii, earned the respect of neighboring nations Sonderia and Maecenia who were Voclarist nations themselves. This moved isolated the Makerists in the nation but that was a small price to pay for the support of the majority, upper-class faction that would support his future plans. 
After the move to become a Voclarist centered nation the Makerists in the government as well as inactive members were culled from the government, while newer more productive members were promoted in their place. With the government in a clean slate Wize began reforms in order to stabilize Mydharii industry, he centralized the industry in Voclaria the capital. With the government stabilized and the minorities suppressed or killed it was time to militarize the nation. Ryver and Wize rallied troops and began sacking local cities in the area to assert dominance and steal resources, killing scores of people to test out their new power. 
After the show of power, they established regional dominance with their allies Sonderia and Maecenia, they a regional alliance called "The Pact of Iron." With foreign affairs settled, Mydharii started to refocus on domestic affairs, namely the economy, Mydharii had begun to prosper once again since its first inception. 
==== The Era of Tiberium ====
Just as Mydharii was prospering Vyani Gerat-Olea had unfortunately succumbed to an unknown illness. The passing of Vyani brough instability to the nation, combined with Sahriya annexing their neighbors namely Maecenia tensions rose quickly. The other free nations of Tiberia decided it was time to form a union to combat the rise of Beepeck, Corry, and Sahriya who were slowly annexing the region. Mydharii was invited to join this union called Tiberium which they had quickly accepted for stability. This action had pulled Mydharii into the Great Northern War against Sahriya and her allies.
Mydharii supplied gear and supplies for the war effort which revived Mydharii's industry once again, they also had a hand with the liberation of Maecenia. However, Wize quickly understood what he had done-his son Milos was leading on the other side of the war which brought him great pain, but he still persisted for his nation and his friends. With the continent steeped in war and all of Tiberium mobilizing victory was assured, Sahriya and her allies had lost. Sahriya to avoid further damage integrated into Solge and Milos would go with them. With the war over the union quickly fell apart. The war is steeped in controversy, with foul play being accused of both sides, while Mydharii's involvement was minimal their impact was still felt. With the war now over and Mydharii's independence secured they began to militarize once again.

==== Faith ====
Mydharii is split in two religious groups that dominate the country. On one hand the Voclarists celebrating Voclarianism and on the other hand Makerists celebrating Makerism. The Voclarianism faith has been the original faith since Mydharii's inception, stemming from the original settlers from Exousia many of whom had Aristii ancestry, coming from the colony of Yurki after the Aristii civil war. However, Makerists still made up a good number of Mydharii's population stemming from when Exousia was a part of Veskalide. The native population had their own faith prior to the settlers from Exousia, but this was pushed completely out of existence during the provisional government era due to Wize's policy of forced conversion.
When Voclarianism was declared the official religion of Mydharii work was done to build a sanctum for Saint Zar, the patron saint who founded Aristios, he was the father of Murdius the original founder of Exousia. Cities were renamed after important symbols from the religion, for instance Jaggia was named after the Saint Jaggy, and Sera was renamed to Voclaria after Voclari.

==== Fashion ====
Being located high in altitude in a very harsh mountain range goat fur and wool coats are used to weather the harsh temperature. The natives of the land have mastered the art of weaving coats and tents, so their expertise was needed early on for survival. Once the settlements got more established trading was the main method of clothing, this is where robes weaved with gold and silk came in style for the wealthy elite. The Mydharii fashion scene heavily changed depending on what was in style in neighboring nations like Sonderia and Maecenia.
