The Principality of Truřov was among the most prominent realms in what would become Volonia during the medieval period, and it was ruled by the Odobricci, also sometimes referred to as the "''Truřovids''". The Odobriccis were a Caphiro-Slavic dynasty whose ancestors had been settled as foederati subjects of the Imperium and had been given Imperial princesses and offices, things which gave them legitimacy both during the existence of the [[Caphiria#The_Second_Imperium|Second Imperium]] as well as after its fall. In the wake of the collapse of the Second Imperium, the Odobriccis established a wide network of clients among former Caphirian controlled cities in modern Volonia in addition to Slavic principalities to its south. In [[1203]], the Truřovids waged a major campaign of domination of the modern Caphirian south, including the modern provinces of [[Ranaella]] and [[Isuriana]] which would last until 1215. Although these regions had been never closely integrated into the Second Imperium, the Truřovid control from the southern coast through the central flatlands made it the emergent power in central [[Sarpedon]], one that had a degree of Imperial-descendant legitimacy. | The Principality of Truřov was among the most prominent realms in what would become Volonia during the medieval period, and it was ruled by the Odobricci, also sometimes referred to as the "''Truřovids''".

In [[1283]], Prince Șerossaccir Odobricci took the city of [[Venceia]] following a long campaign against the Venceian Republic. Rather than destroy the city, Șerossaccir Odobricci induced the [[Senate of Caphiria|Senate]] to recognize him as ''Augustus'' and proclaim his formal adoption by the last recognized [[Imperator]] of the Second Imperium. Șerossaccir assumed the responsibilities of Imperator, moving his court to Venceia and adopting Caphiric, rather than Slavic, laws and customs for his court. The newly formed [[Caphiria#The_Third_Imperium|Third Imperium]] would nonetheless have significant political and cultural Slavic influence. Due to the conquests, most of the lands of what would become Volonia was integrated into the Third Imperium, beginning eight centuries of Caphirian rule over the region. Due to being the home region of the Odobriccis, the lands around Truřov would receive significant benefits and Imperial favoritism for the next two centuries. | In [[1283]], Prince [[Șerossaccir Odobricci]] took the city of [[Venceia]] following a long campaign against the Venceian Republic.
