While the current state of Zaclaria has only existed for about two centuries, its history stretches back over two millennia. The region of the [[Mahabis Governorate]] is the site of the ancient Diwaisa civilization, famed since antiquity for its pearl fisheries, which were considered the best in the world. As a whole, the area of Zaclaria has been home to successive civilisations since the 3rd millennium BC. Zaclaria was founded in 247 BC as a city-state and the [[Sultanate of Zaclaria]] was created in the 6th century. The Sultanate was conquered by [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] in the 9th century until the [[Zaclarian Revolution]] in the 11th century, leading to the creation of the Emirate state which ruled for approximately 7 centuries and two dynasties. The Emirate collapsed in the late 18th century during the violent [[Ümmidre Revolution]]. In the early 19th century, Zaclaria was conquered and made into a province by the [[Imperium of Caphiria]]. This period lasted over a century until 1943 where Zaclaria, being led by the [[Al-Fassara Dynasty]], was given its independence and became a [[Crowned Protectorate]] of Caphiria. | While the current state of Zaclaria has only existed for about two centuries, its history stretches back over two millennia.
