The State of Southern Bistonia (aka. Pietų Bistonijos Valstija) was the largest state in the Republic of Bistonia from the country's founding in the year of 1960 to the year of 2018 when it was split to several states in an agreement, and the state ceased to exist the following year. Known for its which extended throughout the state and holding Bistonia's second largest city, Mazoji, Southern Bistonia is known for most of these.
== History ==
In the years before 1020, the Serudians arrived along the banks of the Silavetra River in the Mazoji region, where they constructed settlements made out of the bones of hunted animals in the modern-day city of Mazoji. Not long after the Serudians arrived on the Mazoji Region, a tribal conflict between the Serudians and the Yagoi peoples, who were known as a powerful tribe prior to the Lithuanian exodus of Bistonia, occurred, and after a year long conflict, the Yagoi was defeated and forced to make peace with the Serudians, carrying the throne of being a ruthless tribe, the Serudians established a kingdom which expanded to encompass all of the Mazoji region, and began colonizing several territories.
=== Lithuanian migration ===
Prior to the year of 1270, the Kingdom of Serudiantu was slowly declining and on the brink of collapse, as noble families within the Mazoji Region would often wage constant civil wars against eachother in an attempt to claim the throne, with famines ravaging throughout Serudiantu. As the Lithuanians fled from the terror caused by a nomadic horde in the year of 1270, after their homeland was destroyed, they became a threat to the indigenous people, which prompted the Lithuanians to wage a bloody brutal conflict which had lasted decades which forced the Kingdom of Serudiantu to intervene as they ravaged the lands, and as a result the Serudians lost, forcing most of them to leave the Mazoji region as hordes of Lithuanian invaders scorched the city. The Mazoji region would remain uninhabited for over a century.
=== Bistonian Empire ===
After the Serudians had left, the Mazoji Region eventually came under the rule of the Bistonian Empire, which had solidified their control over the city. However, despite this, the Mazoji Region was cut off from the rest of the mainland, and had become an isolated part of the Bistonian Empire. During this period, the Lithuanians completely levelled entire settlements, and constructed a new town along the banks of the Silavetra River in the Mazoji Region, this town would later on be called Mazoji, which meant Small or Little in the Lithuanian language, as the town was small compared to other communities. The region in which Mazoji was located would be later on named after the town. Over the centuries, it grew from a small town to a rather decent one, with a new bridge constructed to connect to the southern part of Mazoji, and palaces which were owned by Bistonian emperors were constructed, including the latest one which was constructed under the order of Emperor Vilna IV. In the year of 1673, after the Crimson tribes had invaded the Bistonian Empire, the Mazoji region later on became a remnant kingdom called the Kingdom of Mazoji, along with the Kingdom of Farhorn Isle.
