The '''Messisorian Kingdom''' was an [[Ancient Istroyan civilization|Ancient Istroyan]] polity in [[Sarpedon]] during Antiquity. Considered to have been established with the establishment of permanent hegemony of the city of Messisoria over the island of [[Herciana]] in the 1140s BC, the Messisorian Kingdom was a major power in the ancient Istroyan world and an early rival of [[Caphiria]]'s for dominance of northern [[Sarpedon]]. Coming to encompass most of modern [[Thessia]] and [[Halfway]] as well as Herciana, the Kingdom was rich and experienced its peak (called the "Messisorian Empire" by historians) around 850-600 BC, when its center of power gradually shifted from the island of Herciana to the mainland parts of the Kingdom. The Kingdom was gradually pushed back by [[Caphiria]] and destroyed in 198 BC. | The '''Messisorian Kingdom''' was an [[Ancient Istroyan civilization|Ancient Istroyan]] polity in [[Sarpedon]] during Antiquity.

The Messisorian Kingdom was the first major polity in northeastern Sarpedon and was responsible for the proliferation of Istroyan civilization in the region. During its existence, the Messisorians inflicted severe defeats on increasingly organized [[Sarpic people|Sarpic]] tribes, driving them back and weakening them for later conquest by [[Caphiria]]. The Messisorians would have a lasting legacy in the minds of Istroyan people on Sarpedon, and [[Veltorina]] would claim direct discent from the Messisorians upon its independence in [[1782]]. | The Messisorian Kingdom was the first major polity in northeastern Sarpedon and was responsible for the proliferation of Istroyan civilization in the region.
