## History

In the late Middle Ages, the Oxani experienced centuries of prosperity and growth thanks to the old Empire. An Empire driven by spiritual leaders. But over time, the old Empire became decadent and with a series of famines and plagues, reduced the population to around half of what it was before the calamities. Along with depopulation, as well came social unrest and endemic warfare for territorial expansion. Kudania an opposing kingdom, experienced serious peasant uprisings at the same time. The world of Ok'san was in chaos. Finaly the Empire has fallen.

### Kingom of Kudania

   Kudania was a large and powerful state on the Uburian Peninsula during the **Middle Ages**. Its name comes from the host of kudia (castles) constructed in the region. It began in the 9th century as the **County of Kudania** (*Xutapi ze Kudia*), an eastern frontier lordship of the Kingdom of Okania.

From the first half of the 9th century until the middle of the century, in which it came to be paid more closer attention to, its administration and defense by the monarchs of Okania - due the increased incursions from the Emirate of Enegua. The Kingdom of Okania gave independence to the **County of Kudania** and became a separate kingdom to face the Emirates of Enegua. This was the beginning of the **Kingdom of Kudania**. Since it was not in the sense of the old emperor, kudania was always an oposition of the old empire.

### The Great War

After the fall of the old empire, Ok'san has been divided into hundreds of city-states. The city-states were splited into followers of the old Empire, who defended spiritual ethics, with the goal of creating a new empire according to ancient traditions, to rebuild the old order. On the other hand, we had city-states governed by technocrats who believed that the world could only be united through technological enlightenment. Both sides tried with violence to enforce their goal, that's how the world was covered in war for 500 years.

While the technocrats enjoyed the industrial revolution, on the side of the spiritualists, the dark ages still prevailed, they had every kind of technology forbidden. Of course that meant that the technocrats got the upper hand in the world. They finally won the war and established a new world order; the technocratic dictatorship.
