=Etymology=
The term "Balistria" and "Balistrian" come from the ancient word referring to those who inhabited the island. "Balis" is the name of the island, "-ria" or "-ia" means "from the area; from the region" (Balistria means "those who are from Balis)
=History=
The history of Balistria is typically divided into three distinct periods: The Ancient Elven Balistria, The rise of Urisine Balistria, and modern Balistria. The history of the Kingdom of Balistria ends with their annexation by ALksearia following their defeat in the [[Balistrian Coalition War]]
==Early Inhabitants==
The Earliest inhabitants of modern-Balistria was comprised of Alkari Elves and Ursines living in the region. In ancient Balistria, both the Ursines and the Elves lived together in relative harmony. Groups of communities were formed around the idea of trading between the tribes. These tribes lasted until the rise of the first city-state near modern day Ouroborous. It was from here where the first term "Balistrian" was used to refer to those who came from the island. The island would remain in small city-states or small provinces until the Impalazen Empire came in and conquered the island.
==Age of Ursines==▼
==Formation of the Kingdom==
[Will need to consult Sammy to further develop this part of their history. Also might have the Kingdom be formed at another time. for now this section is a WIP and will be for a while]
==The Rise of the Ursines (1450-1590)==
After the collapse of the Impalaza Union, the first natural Balistrian King was an Elf from Ouroborous.
==Operation Elven Fall and the Aftermath(1590-1620)==
==Fall of the Kingdom==
This Kingdom finally ended after it was annexed by Alksearia after the end of the [[Balistrian Coalition War]].
=Government=
The government of Balistria is comprised of a bicameral system. The upper house, the Council of Viziers, forms the government while the lower house, the Chamber of Deputies, handles most internal policies. The Office of the Grand Vizier is superior to the legislature
