The two Kingdoms period began to come to an end towards the end of the 13th century and the dawn of the {{wp|Little Ice Age}}. The severe climatological effects are thought to have lead to the major wave of crop failures affecting both Kingdoms, which lead to the weakening of both. In [[1324]], the first [[Quetzenkel|Quetzen]] sailors began to arrive on the north shore of the Nysdra. Though disunified, the major maritime city states of Quetzenkel were far more prosperous and powerful than the Venua'tino on account of Quetzenkel's fertile farmland and strategic trading location. Through economic means, the two major cities and other coastal settlements of Venua'tino soon became dependencies on the Quetzen maritime powers as crop imports gave the Quetzen significant power over Venua'tino. Beginning in the 1440s, the city states began campaigns of military subjugation, establishing the first trans-Nysdra colonial system. Both [[Shenendehowa Bay]] and [[Skaneateles]] became subordinate to Quetzen city states, a status that would continue for the next three centuries. The rise of [[Quetzenkel#History|Archchief Quetzen I]] lead to the destruction or subjugation of many of the Quetzen maritime powers. Local notables in the Venua'tino coastal settlements reestablished native rule over the course of the 1640s and began a series of violent internecine wars that devestated the region.

===Modern period===
As [[Varshan]] fell into significant internal disarray with the end of the [[Varshan#Yun-harle_dynasty|Yun-harle dynasty]], the Polar Captaincy collapsed as Varshani forces withdrew in [[1964]]. Most major world powers expressed concern regarding the lack of central authority and social organization in Venua'tino following the withdraw. In [[1967]], the entire region was made into a mandate by the [[League of Nations]] with the express purpose of ensuring political stability, organizing distinct and self-sufficient states, developing infrastructure, and providing for humanitarian concerns in the region. The League-established Commission for Venua'tino'pouri'tino'nui was set up in [[Shenendehowa Bay]] to administer the territory. Although never considered part of Venua'tino proper due to its distance from the [[Nysdra]], the remaining "stateless northern territories" which were sometimes included with Venua'tino were split off into the [[East Arctic Mandate]] under [[Kiravia|Kiravian]] supervision. Control over the mandate initially rotated between several designees before this system was revised in [[1974]]. Under the influence of [[Urcea]], the Mandate was permanently assigned to Urcean supervision under the justification that its presence in nearby [[New Harren]] made it the closest permanent member of the [[League of Nations Security Council]]. Urcea would begin an intermittent forty decade process of economic development and attempted state creation.
===Mandate established===
As [[Crona]] descended into chaos during and after the [[War of the Northern Confederation]], major world powers began to feel extreme concern regarding the lack of central authority and social organization in Venua'tino in the 2010s. In [[2017]], [[Urcea]] managed to have the entire region assigned to it as a mandate by the [[League of Nations]] with the express purpose of ensuring political stability, organizing distinct and self-sufficient states, developing infrastructure, and providing for humanitarian concerns in the region. The League-established Commission for Venua'tino'pouri'tino'nui was set up in [[Shenendehowa Bay]] to administer the territory. Although never considered part of Venua'tino proper due to its distance from the [[Nysdra]], the remaining "stateless northern territories" which were sometimes included with Venua'tino were split off into the [[East Arctic Mandate]] under [[Kiravia|Kiravian]] supervision.


In [[2018]], the region was bisected by the creation of the [[International Nature Preserve]] in the sparsely populated central region of Venua'tino. The bisection divided the territory into Western Venua'tino and Eastern Venua'tino, which both remained under the purview of the League Commission but under now seperate departments. The creation of the Preserve also precipitated the compensated relocation of the few tribes and peoples living within its boundaries, leading to the growth of small settlements in the remaining Mandate territory into moderate sized cities in the Mandate interior. These cities, an unprecedented development in the history of Venua'tino, created an opportunity for cultural exchange as well as cultural tensions. These new cities also required major investment into infrastructure by [[Urcea]], which began in earnest with the construction of highway networks throughout both Eastern and Western Venua'tino. In [[2018]], [[Quicksilver Industries]] arranged a [[international charter city]] treaty with [[Shenendehowa Bay]], removing it from the territory.
