While the current state of Zaclaria has only existed for about two centuries, its history stretches back over two millennia. The region of the [[Mahabis Governorate]] is the site of the ancient Diwaisa civilization, famed since antiquity for its pearl fisheries, which were considered the best in the world. As a whole, the area of Zaclaria has been home to successive civilisations since the 3rd millennium BC. Zaclaria was founded in 247 BC as a city-state and the [[Sultanate of Zaclaria]] was created in the 6th century. The Sultanate was conquered by [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]] in the 9th century until the [[Zaclarian Revolution]] in the 11th century, leading to the creation of the Emirate state which ruled for approximately 7 centuries and two dynasties. The Emirate collapsed in the late 18th century during the violent [[Ümmidre Revolution]]. In the early 19th century, Zaclaria was conquered and made into a province by the [[Imperium of Caphiria]]. This period lasted over a century until 1943 | While the current state of Zaclaria has only existed for about two centuries, its history stretches back over two millennia.

The start of the 11th century saw the Oduniyyad Caliphate begin to decline as it dealt with several incidents: the rise of Shia Islam forced the Caliphate to deal with several campaigns and conflicts, the First Crusades were launched by the Levantine Catholic Church, and colonialism, sectarianism and infighting contributed to open rebellion which in turn dismantled the Caliphate and ultimately fractured it into separate, smaller states. The region of al-Kurush was able to take advantage of the disorganization at the start, waging its war for independence in 1085. After a relatively short conflict, the Caliphate seceded and al-Kurush was given its independence in 1089, primarily so that the Caliphate could focus its attention on more significant matters. | The start of the 11th century saw the Oduniyyad Caliphate begin to decline as it dealt with several incidents: the rise of Shia Islam forced the Caliphate to deal with several campaigns and conflicts, the First Crusades were launched by the Levantine Catholic Church, and colonialism, sectarianism and infighting contributed to open rebellion which in turn dismantled the Caliphate and ultimately fractured it into separate, smaller states.
