By 300 CE, the Germanic people had migrated into the central areas of modern Carna, establishing permanent settlements in the region. The south and southwestern coastal areas and the mountainous northern areas of modern Carna remained under the rule of the native people up until the collapse of Great Levantia in 500 CE. This saw the Ængles conquer much of modern Carna, developing a distinct Ænglo-Gaelic culture that laid the foundation of the language. In 881, the Kingdom of Carna was founded beginning more than a millennia of independent Carnish rule. Calls for reform in the late 18th century would see the Carnish monarchy relinquish significant power to an elected parliament. Carna would enter the Great War in 1935, fighting alongside their former rival of Urcea. As the war escalated, democratic elections were suspended and the Carnish monarchy retook significant power. In 1947, protests against the monarchy's growing power and the suspension of democratic elections escalated into a number of popular uprisings, culminating in the deposition of the Carnish monarchy in June of 1948.

Since the 2002 Forgaitherin election, the Social Labour Party (Carnish: Social Laubour Pairty, SLP) has remained the dominant party in the country's national legislature. Every president since the 2003 Carnish presidential election has also ran on an SLP ticket. This has lead to accusations that the Republic of Carna has become a. However, several investigations conducted by international organisations have found no evidence of election interference or tampering, and have concluded that Carnish elections remain free and fair. Critics of these accusations also argue that since the Social Labour Party has always held the Forgaitherin with the support of other parties (currently the Communist Party and the Green Party) that the Republic of Carna cannot truly be called a dominant-party state.
