After [[Burgundie]] had been pushed out of Kandara the Kingdom of Santasi was reformed and controlled much of the coastal parts of modern-day Kandara. They spent the first 20 years working to consolidate their power and expand along the coast. A loose coalition of tribes in the interior and northern parts of the country more or less focused internally on their own realms but would if threatened by external forces, as they were by the Kingdom of Santasi in the 1840s, be able to band together against the common enemy and push them back out. By the 1860s many of these tribes had more or less fallen under the sway of Emir ibn Oua K'nda who eventually would create a unified state in [[1871]] called the Second Kandaran Caliphate. The Caliphate lasted until 1922 after which, through internal struggles, it fell to a more unified Kingdom of Kandara as it was called when combined with the Kingdom of Santasi. During this time life for the inhabitants of modern-day Kandara was mostly focused on small-scale sustenance farming and herding, with some communities along the coast being able to conduct trade across the i[[Middle seas region]]. There were no major exports of note during this period as there were no larger-scale mechanisms to ensure that there was enough supply to make it financially viable to export any particular commodity.
