'''Caphirian Reconquest (500 - 1485):''' This period witnessed the ascendancy of Catholic Kosali nobles who established feudal systems, leveraging monasteries and bishoprics to consolidate power. These Kosali leaders, characterized as partially Caphirianized, defended against Ladri, Rati, Losa, and Rastri incursions. The Treaty of Agrila in 954 divided Pelaxia into Castrillón and Agrilan territories. The Santialche dynasty's 12th-century rise led to the establishment of cities like Alimoche, Fatides, and Barcegas. Concurrently, the Castrillóns expanded their influence, absorbing southern territories and forming alliances. The Montian Confederacy emerged as a political entity during this time, uniting various provinces under its banner. The 14th century witnessed a shift from feudalism to late medieval politics, with the Castrillóns vying against Agrila and Sebardoba for control. Battles and alliances reshaped the geopolitical landscape. In 1469, Consul Mauhtémoc Castrillón's involvement in the Termia region led to conflicts, including pivotal battles like Alcoy and Jumilla. The fall of Tristán Castrillón in 1477, in which the Montian Confederacy played a role, marked a turning point, signaling the decline of the Castrillón dynasty and the realignment of power dynamics in the region. | '''Caphirian Reconquest (500 - 1485):''' This period witnessed the ascendancy of Catholic Kosali nobles who established feudal systems, leveraging monasteries and bishoprics to consolidate power.

'''Great Caphiravian Kingdom of Pelaxia (1485 - 1618)''': Marked by the Union of Termia in 1485, Pelaxia's history saw the rise of the De Pardo dynasty through a marriage alliance between Reginaldo Castrillón and Jerónimo De Pardo. This union aimed to create a unified state governed by Albalitorian law, supported by the Montian Confederacy. The Jeronimian period fostered a blend of feudal and mercantile dynamics, with the Cortes Regium of 1516 shifting legislative power to the Corte General, initiating the "Golden Liberty" era characterized by aristocratic rule.

The dynasty's reign from 1686 to 1802 was a prosperous era of cultural growth. Economically, Pelaxia relied on agricultural production through serfdom, diverging from Levantia's emerging capitalist trends. The 16th-century agricultural trade boom, coupled with peasant labor, fueled a profitable folwark economy. Mining and metallurgy thrived, contributing to commercial advancement. Exports via Albalitor, a prominent trade hub, maintained positive trade balances. Other towns like Agrila, Montia, and Fegona participated in transit and exports, with Albalitor's prominence driving its wealth and autonomy. | ||
'''Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth and the Pelaxian Empire (1618 - 1795):''' The establishment of the Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth in 1618 through the Union of Alahuela followed the Great Schism of 1615 and the subsequent dissolution of the Southern Provinces. Notably, Pelaxia emerged as the dominant partner in the union, with its ruler ascending as the crowned Emperor of the federative monarchy. The Commonwealth's distinctive political structure featured a system of checks on monarchical power, exemplified by the Concilii Regii legislature controlled by the nobility. This innovative approach foreshadowed principles of modern democracy and constitutional monarchy. Ethnically diverse and religiously tolerant, the Commonwealth safeguarded religious freedom through the Albalitor Confederation Act of 1673. While Catholicism held the status of the "dominant religion" according to the 1791 Constitution, freedom of religion was maintained. However, the Commonwealth faced partitions due to the First Partition in 1772 and the Second Partition in 1793, ultimately leading to its dissolution through the Third Partition in 1795. | '''Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth and the Pelaxian Empire (1618 - 1795):''' The establishment of the Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth in 1618 through the Union of Alahuela followed the Great Schism of 1615 and the subsequent dissolution of the Southern Provinces.
