Sakuran Crisis
The Sakuran Crisis unfolded as a territorial conflict over an island archipelago nestled in the Osterium Sea within Rathnir. The Sakuran insurgency lead by Duscv on the island of Iremithia, it was viewed as a provocative act by the then-dominant Aesperium Neida. The disputed lands belonged to an obscure islander nation, lost to the cannals of time, which was once a vassal of Aesperium Neida, compelling the empire to intervene. The crisis resulted in the fall of Sakura in Rathnir, yet for Florandia, it marked the dawn of a new era.

Aftermath of the Crisis
The collapse of the Sakuran Khanate wrought devastation upon Sakura, creating internal strife as its people were rendered nomads without a homeland. This crisis sparked a rebellion against the Duscv leader, who lacked concrete plans for resettlement and competency needed to do soo. The dissenting faction, known as the "Florandians," emerged as a historical milestone, marking their stance for a better future during this pivotal moment in history of Florandia.

First Expedition
Initially, the Florandian expedition began as a band of nomads venturing into the eastern reaches of Rathnir, with standout eras including the Sparwood Squating and Azerfjord Squating after the exile from Nostra Terra. Each squatting era concluded in ultimate exile from the lands, making it a relatively uneventful period. However, as the age of squatting reached its end, it instilled a newfound courage in the Florandian people to unite and embark on the "Second Expedition."

The Grand Expedition
The Grand Expedition, a pivotal chapter following the first expedition's final exile from Azerfjord, became the hallmark of Florandian resilience. Venturing into the newly discovered lands of Eldham, the second expedition was driven by an unwavering determination to ensure the survival and prosperity of Florandians at all costs. Their primary objective was to claim uncolonized territories in the Phoros continent, a venture that proved highly successful. As the explorers concluded their journey, they founded the city of "Fort Scarlet Dawn," the fifth settlement in Eldham, marking the inception of a Golden Age for Florandia.

The Phoros Era
Following the success of the Grand Expedition, Florandia basked in a newfound prominence, experiencing early stages of the kingdom marked by generosity and prosperity. The flourishing state was evident in various projects and the formal transformation of settlements into thriving cities, most notable of them was the city of New Yoake, Frankenlandt, and the first capital Fort Scarlet Down. Kyborg, the commander of both expeditions, was rightfully declared the First King of Florandia, leveraging his influence in Bardonia to secure funds for the kingdom's initial development of the mainland, the developement of the Western Territories would mean future but that changed drasticly. Despite the overall growth and prosperity, an impending storm loomed on the horizon, signaling an imminent challenge for the kingdom.

Secession of New Yoake
After the successfulsuccessful colonization of the Western Territories, Florandia's development on the mainland stalled due to the suspension of funding from Bardonia, which particularly affected the stability of the Western Territories. Due to financial constraints, New Yoake was orismally a modest settlement in a frozen enclave, founded by Oldman Pablo, Lg of Eldam. Faced with a lack of external funding, New Yoake achieved self-sufficiency through the dedicated efforts of its city council and grsmall ew from a hamlet to a prosperous town. As the settlement changed, a Council of Truth was formed, and eventually Newyoake separated from Florandia due to perceived government inaction at a critical time.

Storm on the Horizon
Ater the initial success of the kingdom, a wave of prosperity lured a notorious pirate group known as 'The Barborosa Pirates.' While no initial battles were recorded, the looming threat they posed was palpable. The Barborosa Pirates issued an ultimatum, aiming to transform Florandia into a pirate utopia, spelling the demise of the state. Faced with an unavoidable crisis, King Kyborg made the difficult decision to initiate a mass resettlement, acknowledging Florandia's inability to withstand the impending danger. The new challenge unfolded, with numerous settlements abandoned, families shattered, all sacrificed for the survival of the Florandian people. The new land's of the kingdom was targetted, Astios was ou

The Great Voyage to the West
As Florandia faced the Barborosa Pirate threat and made the decision to depart the Phoros continent, a new chapter unfolded with the kingdom, embarking on a challenging voyage to find a new place to call home. Despite a reduced expedition force, with approximately one-third of the population opting to stay in New Yoake, the relocation of the entire kingdom proved to be a daunting task. This monumental decision meant leaving behind the fruits of hard-fought victories, a sacrifice not uncommon in the nation's history. The year-long process of full relocation concluded with Florandia settling on the continent of Astios, primarily establishing itself in the Highlands of Darian Mountains. To anchor this new chapter, a capital was established—Aurora—serving as the headquarters and symbol of resilience in the face of adversity.
