During the 8th through 14th century the country slowly began to centralize more into a state. The different families and clans slowly began to decrease in number but after the fall of House "Metal" in 1395, the clans stagnated as any move against one another would break the balance of power that existed. This all changed thanks to the [[Wasi King]] in 1458. He was a member of House "Light". The [[Wasi King]] proposed that all the houses form together and create the country of [[Canespa]]. A country that could withstand the forces of any neighboring land. The houses were convinced by both by the Wasi King's legendary speaking skills and the looming threat of colonizers in the area. For the next 300 years [[Canespa]] would almost totally remove itself from the world. | During the 8th through 14th century the country slowly began to centralize more into a state.
