Rusana has seen human habitation since at least 4000 BC and has been a battleground for several regional powers including the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] and various Corummese dynasties. During the 16th and 17th centuries the unified Rusani state was battered by invasions from its more powerful neighbors, which caused it severe territorial losses and heavily curtailed its autonomy. As a crossroads of empires its population is composed of a Rusani majority but also is host to various minorities such as the Tauqi and Kassar people and Corummese muslims known as the Yue. Rusana's economy is small and relatively underdeveloped, relying primmarily on the export of raw materials, agricultural products and fishing.

With the Great Slavery Revolt on the western shores of [[Alshar]] the various colonial administrators had to make a choice as the revolt became a full-scale war, one that the Levantine colonists were losing badly. Would they cast their lot in with their fellow colonists, draining the defensive resources from their own colonies, ignore the plight of their brethren, try to balance both, or abandon their colonial ambitions altogether. The viceroy of Pyrithi Colony attempted to find a balance.

Starting in 1880 popular unrest, communal and religious violence and drought led to the eruption of violent revolts against the monarchies of Ghanim, Lakadu and Barpubad. Disaffected army units quickly deposed the ruling families, executing them in the case of the Lakadu. Street calls for unification quickly overtook any other proposal, with the borders seen as artificial constructs to keep the Rusani muslim nation weak, fragmented and vulnerable to external forces.  Ghanim's army commander, General Javad Spabod announced the creation of the Rusana Revolutionary Military Command that would include officers of all the three former militaries and act as an executive national body. The junta's first act was to formalize the unification of the three kingdoms into the Islamic Republic of Rusana.
