Following the [[Revolution of 1733]] and the the ratifying of the Tierrador Charter, the Tierradorian Empire was formally dissolved and the nation was an morphed into two new nations, the Tierradorian Confederate Republic, with Aubo Šoqa serving as president, and the Western Republic, which governed over the regions of [[Tulangia]], [[Ulunkheria]], [[Alcosky]], [[Qazrogzo]], and [[Undursky]]. Little changed procedurally as while the Tierrador Charter stated that the nation was a union of seventeen independent regions with the same rights as a sovereign nation, only three of the seventeen regions possessed said powers and rights. The [[Republic of Auqali and Sonaxa (1727–1910)|Auqali Republic]] was not technically considered part of the Tierradorian Confederation, rather a full sovereign, independent nation, with its own military and political interests. The other two regions, [[Arrecife Republic (1803–1892|Arrecife]] and Bogocía were considered semi-independent, however still governed from central government. The central government, while in theory did not possess much power, still acted as an authoritarian regime and attempted to suppress many laws and ideas coined by the regions. However, these endeavors were never successful.

The Tierradorian Confederation was considered weak and unstable, and the Tierrador Charter and its contents were not considered a true frame of government. The central government had no true power over the regions, leading regions like Auqali and Arrecife to declare themselves independent without any real resistance from the central government. The leader of the Confederation was appointed by the governors of the regions, and had no true power, either, serving as a figurehead for the entire nation and was only consulted to for international relations, therefore expressing fact that there was no true need for a leader in Taisgol. This form of government continued on for about 60 years until 1796, when Robert Derša, the governor of the Las Rozas Region, attempted to declare the Region independent, as he felt that the Confederation was holding his region back from prosperity. This was met with an unusual response, the fourteen other regions united to send their regional militias to Las Rozas to ”dissuade” Derša from declaring independence. Eventually, this led to the [[First Beaver War]], which lasted from 1796 to 1823.

This form of government continued on for about 60 years until 1796, when Tesío Takosenia, the governor of the Las Rozas Region, attempted to declare the Region independent, as he felt that the Confederation was holding his region back from prosperity. This was met with an unusual response, the fourteen other regions united to send their regional militias to Las Rozas to ”dissuade” Takosenia from declaring independence. Eventually, this would begin the Takosenic Era of Tierrador, which also began with the [[Takosenic-Kostiric Wars]].


During the First Beaver War, Derša sent his militia to Aracadó and Polelu, completely overwhelming their armies and annexing them both in 1797. After that, the militia was sent towards Taisgol, as he believed that if he could take over the city, it was possible for him to overtake the entire nation and dissolve the confederation. In December of 1797, Taisgol was invaded by Las Rozas. The invasion did not last long, as the newly expanded Las Rozas militia was able to overwhelm and destabilize the Taisgol Army in a matter of weeks. After the militia entered the city and Taisgol was annexed by Las Rozas, Robert Derša relocated the new base of operations to Taisgol and formally dissolved the Tierradorian Confederation, creating the Union of Las Rozas in its place. Following that, he received the Tierrador Charter and burned it in front of the Palacio de Prosperidad, signaling a new movement in the history of the nation. The rest of the regions eventually joined the union either by coercion or full military force, except for the three independent regions. Alóqal and Opharez, however, possessing an advantage in being separated from the Union by the independent Arrecife, opted to not join the Union, and even with coercion and threats of military force, Derša was aware of Arrecife not allowing an invasion of the Western Regions through their land. The only way for an Invasion of Alóqal was for Derša’s militia to travel around the Porvaos Region, which, while possible, was extremely difficult in terms of logistics.

As the nation was entering the second stage of the First Beaver War, the Tierradorian population steadily grew increasingly more apathetic towards the Derša-led republic. The delaying of the inevitable war with Alóqal led many Tierradorians to question the credibility of his leadership, and despite the many threats made against dissidents by the Imperial Army, the Tierradorian people began demonstrations within the streets of many Tierradorian cities, most notably Taisgol. Eventually, on September 16, 1805, Derša made the decision to sacrifice the extra resources of traveling around Porvaos in order to reach the Alóqal Region, and launched a full-scale invasion of the independent nation. The invasion did not last long, as the significantly more technologically-advanced Imperial Army quickly crushed the Alóqali defenses. On October 2, 1805, Alóqal and Opharez were admitted into the Tierradorian Republic as the ninth and tenth regions of the nation. Following the invasion of both regions, it allowed for Robert Derša to cement his status as the dictator of the Tierradorian Republic. However, his reign would not last as he would die in 1811 from an unknown illness. His successor, Mathew Qonerma, would become the next autocratic leader of Tierrador. Though his reign lasted longer than his predecessor, Qonerma's time in office was also short-lived. Growing disparity within the newly-founded regions of the Tierradorian Republic, as most of the funding from the federal government was based off of what the regions could contribute, whereas most regions were not able to produce many resources deemed valuable by Qonerma's government. Not only this, but the growing disagreements with the Kingdom of Bogocía along with the Republic of Auqali, two regions that were regarded as crucial to the survival of the Qonerma-led Tierrador, only sped up the eventual fall of the Republic. On May 9, 1823, the [[Qabóri Guard]], the ''de facto'' military force of the former Qabóri Woqalate, stormed the Palace of Prosperity in Taisgol. This began the Revolution of 1823, which lasted until August of the same year, and resulted in the death of Mathew Qonerma, the fall of the Tierradorian Republic, and the end of the first Beaver War.  
As the nation was entering the middle stage of the Takosenic-Kostiric Wars, the Tierradorian population steadily grew increasingly more apathetic towards Takosenia’s republic. The delaying of the inevitable war with Alóqal led many Tierradorians to question the credibility of his leadership, and despite the many threats made against dissidents by the Imperial Army, the Tierradorian people began demonstrations within the streets of many Tierradorian cities, most notably Taisgol. Eventually, on September 16, 1805, Takosenia made the decision to sacrifice the extra resources of traveling around Porvaos in order to reach the Alóqal Region, and launched a full-scale invasion of the independent nation. The invasion did not last long, as the significantly more technologically-advanced Imperial Army quickly crushed the Alóqali defenses.

Following the invasion of both regions, it allowed for Tesío Takosenia to cement his status as the dictator of the Tierradorian Republic. However, his reign would not last as he would die in 1811 from an unknown illness. His successor, Aphío Kostiri, would become the next autocratic leader of Tierrador. Though his reign lasted longer than his predecessor, Kostiri’s time in office was also short-lived. Growing disparity within the newly-founded regions of the Tierradorian Republic, as most of the funding from the federal government was based off of what the regions could contribute, whereas most regions were not able to produce many resources deemed valuable by Kostiri’s government. Not only this, but the growing disagreements with the Kingdom of Bogocía along with the Republic of Auqali, two regions that were regarded as crucial to the survival of the Kostiri-led Tierrador, only sped up the eventual fall of the Republic. On May 9, 1823, the [[Qabóri Guard]], the ''de facto'' military force of the former Qabóri Woqalate, stormed the Palace of Prosperity in Taisgol. This began the Revolution of 1823, which lasted until August of the same year, and resulted in the death of Aphío Kostiri, the fall of the Tierradorian Republic, and the end of the Takosenic-Kostiric Wars.  


Following the Revolution of 1823, the Qabóri Guard declared the return of Imperial Qabór. Qavlan I, a senior member of the Qabóri Guard and the matriarch of the Havqanoq Dynasty, implemented herself as the Woqala of the newly-reformed Woqalate. Qavlan I began her reign by invading, conquering, and admitting the Kingdom of Bogocía back into the Qabóri Woqalate. She would then also implement various policies of devolution, which included the return of the historical '''Qoyalets''' (provinces) of the Qabóri Woqalate, though as a second-tier subdivision, below the regions. Following the death of Qavlan I in 1831, many revisions to the Woqalate Charter took place, which saw the introduction of many modern bureaucratic institutions, including Imperial and Tribunal Courts, the Qangreč, and the Tribunal Executive Offices. This was referred to as the [[Second Qabóri Reformation]] and shaped the Woqalate into what it is now. The Havqanoq also opened up the Woqalate to international relations and trade, along with the conquering of many island colonies. The biggest impact of this era would be the heightened positive relationship with fellow Cronan power [[Alstin]]. Much of modern-day Tierradorian culture and way of life has a large amount of Alstinian influence, especially within the eestern regions, due to their close proximity to the nation. Diplomatic relations began in 1849 when newly-coronated Woqala Saqula II visited [[Alstin (City)|Alstin City]], and met with the Alstinian Parliament to propose a free trade deal. Qabór also began relations with [[Arcerion]] and [[Kiravia]]. While the Havqanoq Dynasty were well-respected by the international community, the people of the Qabóri Woqalate did not respond positively to the various policies from the Havqanoq. In 1867, members of the Qabóri Guard mutinied against Woqala Qavlan II, exiling her to the independent dominion of Lakawachee, where she lived out the rest of her life. The Second Beaver War was fought between sympathizers of the Havqanoq Dynasty and the newly-founded Woqelee Dynasty, who claimed to fight for the people of the Woqalate. The war was one of the bloodiest conflicts in Tierradorian history, and it lasted from 1867 to 1874, and resulted in the House of Havqanoq being overthrown, and the implementation of the Tierradorian Woqalate, with its capital based in Taisgol rather than Qabór.
