The nomadic Qübüji people known as the [[Coburii people|Coburii]] migrated to modern-day Coburia after a series of earthquakes in their homeland, displacing the local [[Andikte people|Andior]] people. After several centuries of disunity, the Coburii were united under the [[Third Kingdom of Qübüj|Kingdom of Qübüj]], later conquering much of the surrounding regions before collapsing in the mid-8th century. [[Fourth Kingdom of Qübüj|Qübüj]] would be reunited in 803 under [[Agyöš III Mallányi|King Agyöš III Mallányi]].

[[Fourth Kingdom of Qübüj|Qübüj]] would be reunited in 803 under [[Agyöš III Mallányi|King Agyöš III Mallányi]]. Qübüj was briefly among the powers of Alshar until its steady decline after the [[Maqhös Wars]] in the early 13th century. Qübüj would remain completely independent until the late 19th century, after [[Obüngyóróč II Algáracöwönt|King Obüngyóróč II Algáracöwönt]] submitted to XXX dependency, though Qübüj was never formally integrated into XXX. After the decline of the XXX empire, Qübüj would regain complete independence, though public opinion of the monarchy was shattered. In early 1975, following a [[Any-Göqhur Riots|series of anti-monarchist riots]], a [[Qübu Republican Front|pro-democracy revolution]] led by [[Garáš Aföčny]] began. [[Ógóngü I Algáracöwönt|King Ógóngü Algáracöwönt]] [[Statement of Exile of Ógóngü I Algáracöwönt|submitted]] to the revolutionary demands in August, and was exiled to [[XXX]]. | ||
A [[The Republican Senate of the Republic of Qübüj|legislature]] was established by the revolutionary leader [[Úbor Ranya]] in 1979, which quickly voted Aföčny into power. However, Aföčny has since dismantled and weakened the legislature and [[Ranyaism|Ranyaist]] democracy established in Coburia, and is a de facto autocrat. Coburia ranks poorly in economic equality, quality of life, and GDP per capita, and has undergone several economic collapses in recent years. Coburia has ample mineral and fossil fuel reserves, but its mining industry collapsed after the banning of [[Wikipedia:Asbestos|asbestos]] in many neighboring nations, asbestos having been Coburia's primary export. | A [[The Republican Senate of the Republic of Qübüj|legislature]] was established by the revolutionary leader [[Úbor Ranya]] in 1979, which quickly voted Aföčny into power.

Under the reign of [[Bány Rünǵ IV Mallányi|Bány IV]], Qübüj would undergo a reformation of its military, leaving a pair of generals in control of each of the kingdom's various outposts and forts, and building academies for the training of soldiers. Mining in Cápány and trade in iron and copper was greatly encouraged, and the Qübüji Royal Armories were established in Any-Gakhtá. The Qübüji military was among one of the most powerful in the world, and Bány's famous [[Gögujidíky]] cavalry were among the few equestrian warriors trained to fight exclusively in the mountainous eastern regions of the kingdom, resulting in huge western territorial gains throughout the mid-11th century. | Under the reign of [[Bány Rünǵ IV Mallányi|Bány IV]], Qübüj would undergo a reformation of its military, leaving a pair of generals in control of each of the kingdom's various outposts and forts, and building academies for the training of soldiers.

Throughout the expansion of Qübüj, there was a massive influx of missionaries who accompanied foreign traders. These missionaries came in frequent conflict with native Baigá leaders, and religious violence between converts and the Qübüji was common. Tensions came to a head in 1084, when [[Agyöš VI Mallányi|King Agyöš VI]] declared war against several powerful neighboring [[ | Throughout the expansion of Qübüj, there was a massive influx of missionaries who accompanied foreign traders. These missionaries came in frequent conflict with native Baigá leaders, and religious violence between converts and the Qübüji was common. Tensions came to a head in 1084, when [[Agyöš VI Mallányi|King Agyöš VI]] declared war against several powerful neighboring [[Wikipedia:Buddhism|Buddhist]] nations, beginning the Maqhös Wars. Agyöš suffered a series of defeats along Qübüj's western borders, leading up to the [[Siege of Qhátőgy]] in 1102, where Agyöš met his death and Qübüj suffered significant losses. By the time of his son [[Cúgy I Mallányi|Cúgy]]'s accession to the throne, the majority of Cápány had been captured, and various revolts had broken out among local leaders seeking the removal of the king. Cúgy would be deposed in summer of 1104, and Qübüj suffered massive territorial losses at the end of the war. The regions of Cápány and [[Arǵöm]] had completely gone outside Mallányi control, and the Kingdom of Aröc would be dissolved soon after the Qübüji loss. The strife caused by the war led to the exile of [[Agyöš VII Mallányi|King Agyöš VII]] and the House of Mallányi in 1107, and the coronation of King Ülgye [[House of Llűnǵ|Llűnǵ]], one of Agyöš VI's former generals, later that year. | ||

There was significantly less popular support behind the Llűnǵ dynasty than the Mallányis, and the Qübüji ideal of [[Agyia]] posed great risks to the Llűnǵs' legitimacy, and the ''[[Wikipedia:Divus|divus]]'' status of many Mallányi leaders incited a number of anti-Llűnǵ uprisings, particularly among the landowning military elite and religious leaders. A number of border regions and wealthy trade posts would break off from Qübüj, causing the kingdom to lose much of its Golden Age fortifications. The [[Baigá Revolt of 1116|revolt of 1116]] marked the official end of the Coburian Golden Age, after Ülgye's loss of the historic stronghold at Fárőc. | There was significantly less popular support behind the Llűnǵ dynasty than the Mallányis, and the Qübüji ideal of [[Agyia]] posed great risks to the Llűnǵs' legitimacy, and the ''[[Wikipedia:Divus|divus]]'' status of many Mallányi leaders incited a number of anti-Llűnǵ uprisings, particularly among the landowning military elite and religious leaders.

Qübüj under the Llűnǵs saw a massive reduction in its trade, and Ülgye's successors [[Agyöš VIII Llűnǵ|Agyöš VIII]] and [[Donű I Llűnǵ|Donű]] pursued many autarkic and isolationist policies, leading to the [[150 Years of Silence]]. At the close of the 13th century, the [[Agyöš X Llűnǵ|King Agyöš X]] ended Qübüj's isolation with his reformation of the Gögujidíky and reconstruction of many of the kingdom's forts. In 1308, Agyöš [[Fifteen Years' War|invaded]] Cápány and the [[Ganöp]] region of southern Coburia. By 1324, the plurality of the surrounding kingdoms had been recaptured, but at great cost. Losses among the soldiers were high, and the once-feared Gögujidíky had been placed under the command of inexperienced commanders. After Agyöš's death in 1332, most of the territory he seized would be lost again. | Qübüj under the Llűnǵs saw a massive reduction in its trade, and Ülgye's successors [[Agyöš VIII Llűnǵ|Agyöš VIII]] and [[Donű I Llűnǵ|Donű]] pursued many autarkic and isolationist policies, leading to the [[150 Years of Silence]].

In 1339, several neighboring groups, including the [[Kingdom of Bárgy]] and [[XXX]], organised retaliation against Qübüj on account of the Kingdom's expansionism. By autumn of that year, Bárgyiy troops had gathered along Qübüj's eastern borders, and [[War of Any-Fašge|war]] was declared in September. | |||
