History

The Podrusan Empire began with the unification of hundreds of clans and tribes under the peerless leadership of Sill Saleh of Fidas, who earned himself the title of Kubwasill, or Megasill, as it is known in Aetian and Ghiskan. His coronation as the one to lead all Podrusans was quickly rebuked by the people of the then-occupied northern region of Isgodon. The Isgodoni people grew defiant with every passing decade and soon, and their "rebellion" was an ill portent for the blossoming Podrusan Empire.   Nevertheless, Kubwasill Saleh would lead the rest of the Empire well, and he was beloved by the people. He was succeeded by his son Saleh II and thus cemented a royal line many still cling to. The Podrusan peoples soon entered a golden age as their merchant ships ferried goods east and west along Barakon. Eventually many foreign powers came to know of the prominent Podrusan culture. The Podrusan Empire perpetuated the significant invention of self-absorbing and self-filtering water skins as well as unique weaponry like the ikakalaka.   In 179 AR, a great rebellion rose up against the Podrusan Empire and proclaimed a new rival domain called Fasjades, centered in the city of Izat. The rise of Fasjades was one of the rare civil wars between the Podrusan people, and resulted in the new Kingdom's independence and the loss of title of Kubwasill for the Podrusan royalty.   In 190 AR, Podrusa had a brief revival under Sillissa Riska I. The warrior queen mustered a formidable and highly mobile army to fight back against the neighboring powers of Linsan, Monha, and Fasjades that threatened Podursan borders. However, her passing in 226 AR saw a continuation of the decline. Her nephew and successor King Jerem was the last to reign. The Podrusan Empire gradually lost regional power over the surrounding areas until their final demise to the Zahretian Caliphate in 252 AR.   The Podrusan Empire in 220 AR
