'''Chrobonsk''', officially the '''Most Holy and Serene Tzardom of Chrobonsk''', is a Mixed Monarchist Tzardom in southern [[Sarpedon]]. It is neighbored by [[Caphiria]], [[Zeshinava]], and [[Aciria]]. It has been historically linked to Caphiria since the Bronze Age, and continues to be a supporter of the nation.

In prehistoric times, Chrobonsk was inhabited by a diverse group of ethnically indigenous Sarpedonic tribes that were in one way or another eradicated by the ancient Suratii Civilization. This civilization ended up collapsing due to what is speculated to be a mass famine. Out of the collapse of the original Suratii civilization, came the Suratii city states. These were largely mercantile peoples that gained their wealth from trading with Caphiria in antiquity.

The Suratii city states were made into a handful of tributary states under the first Caphiric, but the region broke out into over a hundred noble entities once the empire lost its administrative grasp. For over a hundred years these nobles were embroiled in a constant state of warfare, vying for power over one another. All with aims of uniting the region. This came to an end with the formation of the Tzardom itself when a royal marriage between the two most powerful noble houses combined the two to form a single kingdom with a ruling monarch. These were the houses Chrob and Onsk, respectively.

After the establishment of the monarchy Chrobonskian art and culture flourished, and the region become incredibly prosperous leading to the establishment of the University of Srimonsk. This age of stability set a precedent for the monarchy, and some historians speculate it is why it has survived for so long.

''The first settlements and city states were formed up and down the great river basin (placeholder name) that flows through the nation by the indigenous Sarpedonian tribes that we now ethnically know as the Suratii. While in the bronze age they were more than likely much more ethnically and culturally diverse to be lumped into one ethnic group, the Suratii eventually became more culturally and ethnically salient Though much is lost of these ancient cultures, it is known that their main source of income was trading wine and barley up and down the river.''

=== Suratii Kingdoms ===
=== Suratian Civilization ===
''The disjointed kingdoms of the region rarely had any interactions at all with foreign powers, with the exception of the fledgling Caphirian Republic, whose trade allowed the early city states to flourish into actual political entities.''
''The disjointed kingdoms of the region rarely had any interactions at all with foreign powers, with the exception of the fledgling Caphirian Republic, whose trade allowed the early city states to flourish into actual political entities.'' The Suratii kingdoms were largely mercantile in nature and relied on the river for trade with one another. Though there are some records that indicate that at least a few wars were waged between the kingdoms. Most of what historians have from this period come from oral tradition that was later put into writing. Ruins of temples have also been excavated closer to the riverbanks, filled with large bathing pools - suggesting that the river was at one point the subject of worship.

=== The Suratian City States ===
After the collapse of the Suratian civilization, a majority of the surviving Suratians conglomerated into the major cities at th time. These developed into a handful of city states who vied against one another for regional power, sometimes coalescing against larger threats such as Caphiria.  


Most of what historians have from this period come from oral tradition that was later put into writing. Ruins of temples have also been excavated closer to the riverbanks, filled with large bathing pools - suggesting that the river was at one point the subject of worship.
although there is evidence of inter city state military conflicts happening, there is a larger amount of archaeological evidence to suggest that their rivalries were benign and reflected more in trade relationships with Caphiria or larger non Sarpedonic powers. Some of these cities exist to this day, the most famous being Belgrisi, known in antiquity as “Beksiksi”.  


=== Breakaway states ===
=== The War of a Hundred Kingdoms ===
''What modern historians consider to be the beginning of Chrobonskian history would be the formation of the Breakaway Kingdoms. These were once nobles loyal to the Caphirian Empire who, in the midst of the chaos, decided to form their own kingdoms.'' Scholars estimate that as many as one hundred and fifty politically salient entities existed across the Chrobonskian provinces at this time. The largest conflict of this time period was known as the War of the Southern Coalition. Where a large group of nobles who feared House Chrob’s growing hegemony in the Northeastern region banded together to challenge its holdings. The war lasted ten years, and is the subject of the Chrobonskian novel “Steadfast Heart”.
