The Qabóri Woqalate was a former Woqalate which ruled a vast swath of South Crona for over 1500 years. Most of the Woqalate's territory was acquired via rather tame but effective conquest of different and much smaller tribes throughout South Crona. At its peak, the Woqalate encompasses the areas of modern-day Tierrador, Ceylonia, Istrenya, Malentina, Asteria, Porlos, Ormatia, and the U.R. Provinces of Betlands and Veraise. Qabór was one of three major peer states throughout early-modern Crona, the other two being Zurgite Varshan and the North Songun Civilization. The Woqalate regularly conflicted with Varshan through medium-sized skirmishes and defenses against Varshani hunts along the border regions, with two instances of the skirmishes escalating into an all-out conflict; the Orixtal Crusade from 1650 to 1656, and (placeholder) in (placeholder years). Qabór had also seen some conflicts brew between the successor state of the North Songun Civilization, the Matokté Tashcanate, specifically over the areas of Istrenya.
The Woqalate was first formed as the Qabóri Nation's secession from the Abio Woqalate after the establishing of the Qabóri Qangreč in 62 AD. The first ruler designated as the Woqali was Aptanaía, who had been the matriarch of the Imperial House of Qwahakee. The breakaway woqalate would also directly challenge the Abio, sparking the Abio Wars, which lasted from 62 AD until the Qabóri victory at the Battle of Taisgol in 677 AD. Under rule by the House of Aisa'aia, Qabór would significantly expand its borders and immediate sphere of influence over the course of around five centuries. Qabór reached its peak under Qala'asi II in 1120, with a victory over the Kingdom of Porvaos in the Peninsular War of 1120. The Woqalate would be at its peak for over 100 years, though would slowly begin to intentionally reduce its span over the course of the next few centuries. In 1217, Sokalakee and Tchanteqanee were granted their independence, as two separate woqalates of their own under the suzerainty of Qabór. After Aster's expedition in the 1380s, the Woqalates of Soqweux were also granted independence under the same terms as Sokalakee's independence.
Qabór would have its sphere of influence challenged by many different peer states throughout the 14th-16th centuries, with competition between the Matokté Tashcanate over Istrenya, later with Burgundie, Alstin, and Faneria over different areas of southwest Crona, and with Cartadania over Ceylonia. Despite the reductions in territory and influence for Qabór, it had also opened several key gateways for international trade. Growing relations with Burgundie led to the creation of numerous overseas trade organizations, including the Qabóri Trade Company, Orixtal Trade Company, and South Cronan Trading Company throughout the 15th and 16th centuries. Qabór became one of the first independent Cronan peer states to trade internationally with Levantia, Sarpedon, and Kiravia. This had also resulted in Qabór becoming more Occidentalized around that same time, leading to increased tensions between them and Varshan. In the mid-to-late 1650s, the Orixtal Crusade had been fought between Qabór and Varshan. With the help of Occidental powers, the wars were a Qabóri victory, allowing the Woqalate to become an even more dominant peer state in Crona. In the early 1730s, growing discontent with the Qabóri oligarchy and their unjust ruling of the lower classes, revolutionary Aubo Šoqa began leading several demonstrations against the House of Aisa'aia. The Woqalate would eventually fall in 1733 and was split into eleven independent states.
Qabór's extent and endurance allowed it to last for over a millennium. The Woqalate's institutions and culture had left a lasting influence on the development of various political, economic, cultural, and law institutions throughout South Crona. Modern Abioic languages which were spoken all across the Woqalate evolved into various modern languages, including Qabóri (from Romance influences as well), Yapokee, Sokalakee, Soqweux, and Tchanteqanee. Once the Woqalate had adopted Levantine Catholicism as its state religion in the early 1400s, it shaped the religious makeup of South Crona in its entirety. Qabóri arts, such as literature, art, music, and architecture, had also been the main influence for modern South Cronan arts, even partially influencing the arts of the Alstinian Isles. Most institutions of South Crona evolved directly from the Qabóri Woqalate, with the majority of scholars recognizing the Tierradorian Woqalate as the direct successor state from Qabór, which is a role clearly defined in the Woqalate Charter, the official document of the Government of Tierrador.
History
Qangreč Established
The city of Qabór was one of the largest and most strategic cities in the Abio Woqalate. Despite this, tribal differences and conflicts between the Abio ruling house, House of Youkafee, which made up mostly of members from the Youkafee Nation, and the Qabóri Nation had led to instability throughout the Abio Woqalate's last years as a unified empire. One main catalyst was the limitation of only two representatives in the Abio Senate, which was uniform for all tribes in the Woqalate. However, the Qabóri believed they deserved more representation due to their massive population being nearly doubled of the second-most populous, the Youkafee Nation. In 62 AD, Under the leadership of Aptanaía, who had implemented herself as the first Woqali of Qabór, the Qabóri Nation established the Qangreč, meant to be the main advisory council of the Nation. Initially, this move did not bother the Abio Woqalate, as Abio Woqali To'otosi would allow the for the operations of the Qangreč, though she limited its jurisdiction to only the Qabóri Nation. While the Qangreč was recognized in Abioic Law, they still did not serve as the Qabóri's representation in the Abio Senate. Every attempt by the Qangreč to implement itself as another Abio legislative body was quickly turned down by the Senate.
The Qangreč gradually evolved from trying to increase the Qabóri's influence onto Abio institutions to functioning as an independent society under its own banner. Aptanaía declared the city of Qabór as the capital of the new Woqalate, along the same coastline as the Abio capital of Taisgol.
