The Third Kin War and the Age of Industry were significant events in the history of Fiannria/Culfra. The Third Kin War was a conflict with neighboring Faneria, which resulted in the loss of Fiannrian territory and the crippling of its military. This sparked a period of revanchism and national reconstruction, with a focus on building up the nation's industries and businesses. The relationship with the Holy Levantine Empire was strained during this time, but eventually a rapprochement was reached, leading to a period of economic growth and industrialization. Despite these developments, the issue of the hereditary nobility remained a contentious topic, with ongoing debates over their legal status and privileges.

===Commonwealth Gilded Age and Imperial Ambition===
===Commonwealth Gilded Age and Imperial Ambition===
The late 1800s saw a resurgence of Fiannria on the world stage, as the country sought to expand its influence through mercantile expeditions, gunboat diplomacy, and military adventurism. Fiannria established itself as a dominant force in the region through treaties and concession cities administered by the [[General Board of Commonwealth Concessions (GBCC)]]. However, this success did not reflect the growing division and tension within the country, as the wealth of the business elite contrasted with the poor conditions of the working class. This led to strikes, protests, and even street battles.

In 1891, the Fiannan Socialist Party candidate was elected President, but the party did not have a majority in the Tyn, forcing the President to select a Fiann Party Chancellor. This led to a hung government and moderate, diluted, and compromised policies. In the following decades, other third parties won the Presidency, leading to instability in the political system. This period saw the rise of various controversial policies, such as Socialism, Populism, Nationalism, Georgism, Distributism, and even Monarchism.

The early 1930s saw economic depression and political extremism in the Deric states, leading to the mobilization of nationalists and republicans. In an effort to support these movements and weaken southern Levantia, the Fiannan government began to secretly provide materials and volunteers to the cause. This support eventually led to the outbreak of war in the Derics in 1934. While reports suggested Caphiric involvement, the Fiannan government dismissed them. However, when Alshari states declared war on Burgundie and Faneria declared war on Fiannria, it became clear that there was more at play than just an uprising. The Fiannan government stopped supporting the Derian nationalists and made diplomatic overtures to Urcea and Burgundie in response to the wider conflict.

===The Second Great War- the Fifth Kin War ===
Amidst the Great Levantian War and with mounting losses and public disillusionment, the Fiannan government faced internal turmoil. Blaming the Commonwealth military's high command for the invasion's surprise, politicians and public figures were divided on the war's direction. Diplomatic efforts with Urcea were initiated without official approval, leading to an agreement to end support for the Deric rebellion and deploy colonial military forces to support Alsharian possessions in uproar. As the land war in Fiannria continued, a National Unity Party emerged, vowing to push all-out into the war effort and defend the nation. The Unity government made significant changes, seeking cooperation with Burgundy and Urcea and prioritizing military industrialization, conscription, and the replacement of the military high command. While the war in Fiannria saw ongoing bloodshed and inconclusive offensives, the Fiannan and Urcean forces showed resilience in pushing back Fanerian advances. The air theater, in particular, became a notable aspect of the conflict.

==Culture and Society==
==Culture and Society==
Fiannria has a rich and diverse culture, built upon a history of ancient peoples, migratory shifts, Christianization, the Holy Levantine Empire, and major intellectual and popular currents within the Occidental tradition. Unique among the states of Levantia, Fiannan culture and identity is built upon its subidentities, a diverse landscape of cultures where language, tradition, and culture vary greatly from one region to another. Only within the past few hundred years did any shared identity and culture develop, much of it celebrating its cosmopolitan traditions with a common identity found in shared religion, democratic traditions, and its history of intellectuals in both the arts and sciences.
