"The river flows and flows, yet its stones remain unruffled. Withal, Stoinia is one such rock."—Stoinian proverb
Etymology
The word Stoinian is derived from the Latin word pillars (Latin: stoae). During the unification of Stoinia under the Kingdom of Sirania, a widespread integration campaign was propagated to unite the various Tolosan successor ethnicities. Framing them all as fellow pillage-dwellers or children of pillars to unite the previously warring states under one banner.
History
Prehistory
Little is known of the prehistory within Stoinian lands. It was filled with many different hunter-gatherer tribes until the arrival of the Proto-Tolosan ethnic group which came from northern lands. Although cities were founded, none held any considerable dominion beyond their walls.
Tolosan Republic
Roughly 1.000 BCE, such a city came to prominence. Tolosa was the first city of marble and wealth within Stoinian lands. They began to expand their influence through trade and commerce, spiralling themselves and their neighbouring cities into the iron age. With this change, Tolosa formed a trade Republic ruled over by the wealthy families. As the wealth of the Tolosan Republic increased, so did their ambitions. The Tolosans began to found colonies and conquer neighbouring cities in the name of their Republic. This Republic would then stand firmly as the most dominant power within the current Stoinian lands, forging alliances and pacts with the trading powers of the Mediterranean sea. Most notable with proto-Sedunnic Duric
Middle ages
The Stoinian middle ages began when the city of Tolosa was raised to the ground by the migrating proto-Ezervulgish people in 427 CE. This nomadic tribe were so ruthless in their conquest that all the Tolosan infrastructure was destroyed and brought the different Tolosan cities into a dark age. The remaining cities built their own kingdoms and fought against each other over food and land. A few clans however decided to settle in the north eastern corner of the Varcathian mountains, creating an enclave in the homogenous Tolosan lands. The cities too were transformed as did the culture of their peoples. Many cities too converted from the Tolosan Sun deity to Christianity as their new faith. However, these cities would be reunited under one banner roughly 800 years after the fall of Tolosa.
Unification
King Alexandru of Sinaia would become the first Sinaian King that would be granted the opportunity to unite all the Stoinian Kingdoms. It would take his entire lifetime to complete the task through warfare and realpolitik. Through hard work and a campaign of roughly twenty years, Alexandru reformed the different kingdoms into a new kingdom called Stoinia. Proclaiming a new Kingdom and all its people reborn in 1.222 CE, the Kingdom of Stoinia was founded and began consolidating and rebuilding itself on the south-western parts of the Bailtemmic continent. Becoming a close and trusting ally of Sedunn for much of its history.
Exploration age
Colonial era
Elbonian Wars
Szégyőr War
Ten years after Peter I's War, the Ezervulgish King Peter II grew up with the Sedunnic victory and saw the despair it brought to his country. Wishing to reaffirm Ezervulgy as a dominant power despite its recent defeat by his father's hand, he decided that the key to Ezervulgish industrialization was through the conquest of industrialized Stoinian lands. With the Szégyőr enclave from old, Peter II set out to campaign against the Stoinians under a pan-Ezervulgish ideology. Thus war was declared in 1896. The war was mostly fought in the region between the Olt and Milcov rivers. After multiple years of fighting, the Stoinians were able to repel the Ezervulgish invasion. The war remains a catalyst for Stoinian-Ezervulgish tension.
Red Calamity
In the early half of the 20th century, communism arose in the South Pacific. A new promise had seemingly grown with the Stoinian people when the communist party had gained substantial support. Growing bolder as the largest party, the party fell under radical leadership which began to call to depose the King and form a Socialist Republic. However, the King won public support and averted the outbreak of a civil war by exiling the communist politicians. However, these politicians would instead make their way to the eastern parts of Sallodesia and instigate a communist rebellion. Wishing to make amends, Stoinia recognized the young Sallodesian state and actively helped to repress the communist rebellion.
