The ''Arunid Empire'' was a powerful Fravarti-Zoroastrian empire in the [[Daria]] region of [[Audonia]] during Classical Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages(~372BC-884 CE), following the collapse of the [[Battganuur#Umaronid_Empire|Umaronid Empire]] of [[Daria]] in [[738]]CE and the [[Banner Wars]]. It dominated the trade networks of the [[Aab-e-Farus]] and its provinces stretched from modern day [[Kandara]] all the way to northern [[Battganuur]]. The state's founding background as part of a zealous religious movement led by the communitarian 4th Century prophet '''Fravarti''' led to later disastrous campaigns by its founding Padishah Aadesh [[Atur The Conqueror|The Conqueror]] to expropriate the lands of the ''Erezu'' class and to liquidate the ''Barsom Armies'' and directly centralize administration around the Crown. These campaigns, continuing under his successors, led to marked decline of Darian civilization, and its conquest by the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] after scarcely more than a century of existence.

Its origin, wartime capital, and powerbase was in what is now [[Pukhgundi]], where the vestiges of its legacy can still be most obviously seen. While it was a very cosmopolitan empire made up of thousands of ethnic groups, religions, and languages, the ruling clans were from the Bisht region from modern [[Pukhgundi]].
