Kordynian Historical Eras

The history of the Empire of Kordowyn is typically divided into four eras: the Clan Era, Acrenian Era, Arthwrian Era, and the unofficially named 'Modern Era.'
== Clan Era (??? - 0 KOR) ==
It's currently unknown when the Clan Era began, however it's believed to be somewhere between 600 and 1000 years before the arrival of the Acrenians to Kordowyn.
The Clan Era earns its name from the Kordynian Clans, who were the ruling families of Kordowyn prior to the adoption of modern feudalism. The Clan Era is marked by constant feuds between the Clans, and very little information.
== Acrenian Era (0 KOR - 93 KOR) ==
The Acrenian Era began with the arrival of the Acrenians, and earns its name from the basically complete control they held over Kordowyn during the era. 
The Acrenian Era saw the rapid modernization of the Kordynian state and culture, as well as most of the unification of most of Kordowyn. The Acrenian Era came to a sudden end in 93 KOR, when Duke Arthwr II dissolved the Acrenian Church, and in later years replaced Acrenian advisers with Kordynian ones, leading to a significant drop in Acrenian influence.
== Arthwrian Era (93 KOR - 244 KOR) ==
The Arthwrian Era is named as such after the first and the last rulers during the era, Arthwr II and Arthwr III. The Arthwrian Era is noted for staunch absolutism and basically constant warfare, as Kordowyn rapidly grew to become the dominant power in the New World. 
The Arthwrian Era ended in 244 KOR, shortly after the Great War, when Emperor Arthwr III passed away suddenly. 
== Modern Era (244 KOR - ) ==
The Modern Era is unofficial, as the Imperial Scholar's Society's Historical Association maintains that the current era won't be named until enough change has occurred that it is deemed to have ended.
The Modern Era has seen rapid innovation and a massive shift in politics towards socialism and liberalism.
