### Prehistory

Archeological sites show that hominins likely arrived in Seksikkah around 500,000 years ago, with Humans appearing around 300,000 years ago.

### Pre Pharaonic Era

Little is known about the tribes that predate the Western and Eastern Seksikkahan Kingdoms, only that they originated around 5000 years ago. The Western and Eastern Kingdoms themselves formed from the conquest of various tribes around 3780 BC, and after centuries of war, rise, and decline, were unified by Pharaoh Setep around 3000 BC.

### First Pharaonic Era

The **First Pharaonic Era** was made up of 11 Dynasties, beginning around 3000 BC and ending around 1850 BC. The First Dynasty and Second Dynasty set the stage for the remaining dynasties of the era, where Seksikkahan art, language, and customs flourished. Around 1850, following the death of Pharaoh X, fell into chaos, allowing the Ouhtekhi Cult to gain control of Seksikkah.

### Ouhtekhi Era

The Ouhtekhi Era comprised of the Ouhtekhi Empire of Seksikkah, which lasted from 1850 BC to 607 BC. Established by Pharaoh Jehlol, the Ouhtekhi rule was initially met by much resistance from the Seksikkahan people, and an iron fisted rule known as the Period of Calamity lasted 48 years until Jehlol's death. Jehlol's young heir, Pharaoh Nase influenced by non-Ouhtekhi believing court tutors, reforming many of the policies considered heretical by Khiism, stabilizing the empire. Nase's reforms allowed the First Pharaonic Era's influence to remain strong even despite the Ouhtekhi's 1243 year rule. Following the disastrous Ouhtekhi Namaru War between the Ouhteki and the Third Namaruan Empire, both empires were left in chaos after the Battle of Hatmoust when both armies were devastated by a massive landslide, killing both Pharaoh Kahref and Ansarru Nadu II. In the turmoil following the war, Pharaoh X gained control of Seksikkah, establishing the Twelfth Dynasty.

### Second Pharaonic Era

The Second Pharaonic Era, beginning with the Twelfth Dynasty in 607 BC and ending with the Fifteenth Dynasty in 280 CE, was a revival of the original Seksikkahan Culture, and the complete surpression of the remnants of the Ouhtekhi Cult and eventual victory against the Late Ouhtekhi Empire. Containing the notable Pharaohs, X, X, and X, the era ended following the Holy Namaruan Invasion of Seksikkah in 280 CE, leading to centuries of Namaruan rule over Seksikkah.

### Namaruan Seksikkah Era

The Namaruan Seksikkah Era lasted over 500 years, through the rules of the Holy Namaruan Empire and Fourth Namaruan Empire. This era is notable for its mixing of Seksikkahan and Namaruan culture, art, and customs. With the death of Sarru X in 821 CE, and a succession crisis in the Namaruan Imperial Family, the Seksikkahan's revolted, forcing the Namaruan army out of Seksikkah and establishing the Eighteenth Dynasty.

### Third Pharaonic Era

The Third Pharaonic Era was the third continuous era of Pharaonic rule of Seksikkah, lasting 1028 years. After the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty's defeat in the X War, a 67 year period known as the Democratic Seksikkahan Era began.

### Democratic Seksikkahan Era

The first and only democratic government to rule Seksikkah, the Seksikkahan Republic began with the election of Prime Minister X, who served 20 years, rebuilding much of the war-torn Seksikkah. The following Prime Ministers were subject to much political corruption, causing a slow decline. With the republic's defeat in the X War, the elected government was overthrown in the Seksikkahan Coup of 1917 with General X proclaiming himself Pharaoh.

### Fourth Pharaonic Era

The Fourth Pharaonic Era began in 1917 and has lasted to modern day, with the Twenty-Sixth Dynasty currently ruling over Seksikkah.
