In the early modern period, [[Kiravia]] militarily subjugated the Netanic state but did not establish economic overlordship or settler colonies beyond the immediate coastal littral, which became [[Porfiria]]; accordingly, the arrival of the colonial era changed very little beyond becoming part of Porfírian colonial claims. In the place of the old monarchy, the eight social tribes established the Hukon League, which eventually became the official representative of indigenous people in the territory claimed by Kiravia; it concluded the Treaty of Vittēmur in [[1773]], which created a line beyond which [[Occidental]]s could not settle. The Vittēmur line eventually became a jurisdictional boundary between the colonial Porfírian government and the Hukon League, and today forms Netansett's southern border. During the 19th century, the Hukon League would begin social and political integration of its various constituent elements while also gradually gaining further autonomy from the Porfírian colonial government. | In the early modern period, [[Kiravia]] militarily subjugated the Netanic state but did not establish economic overlordship or settler colonies beyond the immediate coastal littral, which became [[Porfiria]]; accordingly, the arrival of the colonial era changed very little beyond becoming part of Porfírian colonial claims.

In the 18th century, the Netanic people began to grow {{wp|tobacco}}, {{wp|indigo}}, and other cash crops originally present in the [[Occident]], remaining mostly isolated but funding the state and small economy with highly controlled cash crop exports. | In the 18th century, the Netanic people began to grow {{wp|tobacco}}, {{wp|indigo}}, and other cash crops originally present in the [[Occident]], remaining mostly isolated but funding the state and small economy with highly controlled cash crop exports. This era of Netansett is known primarily as the "export society", wherein the Netanic people managed to maintain independence by becoming a reliable provider of goods to the global market; in turn, the society and state gradually transformed to support this economic model. In the 19th century, the pre-modern Netanic confederated state was reformed into a centralized state. The Netanic people voluntarily receded from isolation and joined the [[League of Nations]] in the 1950s. After the [[Algosh coup|fall of the Northern Confederation]], the Netanic people resumed their centuries-long skirmishing with [[Algoquona]], the new Algosh state. Within this context, the Netanic found new allies in the [[Occident]]. | ||
Throughout the 2010s, the Netanic state began a rapid period of military and infrastructure modernization while importing Occidental government advisors and cultural materials. It participated in the [[Final War of the Deluge]], fighting against Algoquona and receiving territory at the conclusion of the war. Foreign investment has led Netansett to possess one of the world's fastest growing economies. The economic growth has largely outpaced social and political reform, leading to significant domestic political unrest since [[2010]], with limited efforts towards democratic reform made to improve Occidental ties. Observers have noted a growing {{wp|middle class}} becoming increasingly disillusioned with the traditional ruling cliques and planter aristocracy that once held firm control over Netanic society. | |||
