Starting from the 10th century and throughout the rest of Endertopian history, a large number of foreign immigrants made their way here. The bulk of them had come from Cryria.
Notably, part of the elves that left Cryria due to war and similar reasons ended up crossing the strait and spreading themselves across the western ends of Nito and Ifer. Similarly, some of the nekomimis who fled their homeland founded themselves gravitating towards the
Historians estimated that some 70,000 [[Cryria|Cryrian]] elves and nekomimis emigrated to Nito and Ifer in the 10th and 11th century. The arrivals also brought about distinct twists and some Cryrian flavors in Endertopian culture and languages.
=== The First Endertopian War ===
==== The Spark ====
In the spring of 1072, a group of Endrian loggers were captured when they were caught logging in Nito territories. They would later be executed. Some small-scale conflicts would quickly spiral out of control. With this a war between Endria and Nito sprang into action. The Kingdom of Endria scored some initial success in battles, but it quickly devolved into a standstill when fights pushed on to the northern Skywynne Mountains. Still, frequent rather small scale fights were somewhat common in the area, wearing down both party as time dragged on. In addition, naval blockade set up by Nito, aided by their supply of wood and experienced nekomimi sailors, made reinforcement particularly difficult for Endria.
====
After multiple failed Endrian attempts to seize the strategically important Kiwo Valley, King Morleylan of Ifer decided to capitalize on this conflict and led his army eastward. Within just a few weeks, Morleylan's army has made significant advancement across the open
==== Union
This surprise move shocked both Endria and Ifer, the former under big trouble and the latter fearing the over-empowering of Ifer should they control the vast lands of Endria. In the fall of 1096, Prince Lukane Lethmian of Endria led a small force and set off for Nito's capital to negotiate on behalf of his kingdom. The two kingdoms had common ground, and the talks were fruitful.

Over the course of the next centuries, more elves and nekomimis arrived in Endria and the lands of the Lethmians. The balance of power gradually shifted to the west. In 1436, the Kingdom army rolled up to the Lethmians' doorstep, this marked the beginning of the Redemption War of the Lethmian to retake their throne.
The Church of Endria stayed mostly out of this conflict and left it up to the two royal families to sort themselves out. The Lethmian army, with the help of the local

The period of time following the Redemption War was a time of relative stability for the Kingdom. Under the rule of the Lethmians, the relationship between the human, elven, and nekomimi populations remained largely stable but increasingly precarious. While Endria was not directly involved in the Northern Containment War, it would drastically alter its course of history. The Endertopian Church, collaborating with the Cryrians, initiated a coup on Nov 17, 1835 in what is now considered the start of the Second Endertopian War.
King Leopold Lethmian was able to escape his palace and flee westwards with his Loyalist. In the western major city of Eyjafyalland, revolts and fighting occured between the Loyalist and the Church. Within days, revolts have spread to all three states of Endria. In December of the same year, after fierce fighting along the way, Leopold arrived in the fortification in Eyjafyalland.
Throughout 1827, the army led by the Church of Endertopias, supported by the Cryrian and the Elven Dissention, a partisan group against the Royal rules. Made substantial gains in the south. Resistance turned into small scale skirmishes that, while losses bloody and results inconclusive, tied down a vast number of the Church's unit. With the south at a standstill, the Church sought to march northwards. In Mar 3, 1828, after a series of advancements in the west part of the Kingdom, the Church organized the 1st and 3rd Armies in a large attack on the important citadel. Should the city fall, the Loyalist would be forced into the northern mountain ranges, where their hopes of reorganizing are slim. The Battle of the North saw just over three months of fighting and was the largest and most decisive battle of the war. On Jun 9, after multiple failed attempts to break through, a counterattack was successful, and the Church Armies retreated after having sustained considerable damage.
====
After the defeat at Eyjafyalland, the faith of the Church Army and the Elven Dissention was shook greatly. The now reformed Endrian Army sought to exploit this. King Leopold's diplomatic mission was a success, and the Elven Dissention would announce their dissolution in Jan 1829, some of its former fighters joining the ranks of the Loyalist Endrian Army. With the loss at the North, withdrawal of the elves' help, and Cryria's increasing turmoil in the greater Northern Containment War, the fighting abilities of the Church led armies were greatly diminished.
The following years would see the Loyalist slowly pushing back. The Endrian Army would take the northeast in 1831, and on July 4th, 1833, the Battle of Starynwale sealed the deal with a loyalist victory.
==== The Proclamation of the Federation ====
On July 28th, 1833, two simultaneous addresses to the public were made. King Leopold at Palace Lily in the capital Starynwale and Queen Charlotte at the Castle of Eyjafyalland, now rechristened Palace Patchouly.
=== Modern Era ===
After the conclusion of the Second Endertopian War, King Leopold was reported to have had enough and been considering abdicating. After much deliberations, a compromise was made. King Leopold Lethmian would abdicate and retire from his throne, the Kingdom of Endria would be succeeded by the new Federation of Endertopias with Leopold serving as the first Prime Minister and temporarily appointing the first members of the Enderhalls. After the transitional period, Leopold would go on to resign from politics and become the new head of the Endertopian Church. The Lethmian family would remain a household name and in control of the Church and -- to a lesser degree -- politics.

Line 102 ⟶ 104:
Endertopias is a Federal Parliamentary Republic. Despite that, the powers of the monarch of the Kingdom of Endria is still somewhat present in the form of the Endertopian Church of Ademar (ECA), headed by previous royalties, namely the Lethmian. Two of Endertopias' constituencies, the Crowned Republic of Iferia and the Northern Counties, are both Constitutional Monarchies. This has led some people to suggest that the leader of the ECA, chosen in an internal voting process, functions as a ceremonial leader of Endertopias, a union of monarchies, therefore the country could also be viewed as a Federal Monarchy.
While constituencies have their own parliaments, the Enderhalls is the legislative body of the Federation and possesses the power to overrule certain regional laws. The Enderhalls consists of two houses, the Hallowl (Hall of the Sky) and the Hallerth (Hall of the Land). The Hallowl contains 36 seats evenly divided between
The lower chamber, Hallerth, consists of 651 seats. The method of election varies, states of New Endria including Starynwale elect a total of 414 seats by instant-runoff voting; the Northern Counties elect 130 seats with plurality block voting, while Iferia fills 107 seats with proportional representation. Members of the Hallerth are elected to four-year terms, including the Prime Minister, elected within the Hallerth by instant-runoff voting. No-trust votes have not yet happened in Enderhalls' history.

=== Military ===
Main article (WIP): [[Endertopian Armed Forces]]
The Endertopian Military, also ceremonially called the Komirian Army after the mystical strategist Komi, comprises the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and the Eclipse Special Tactics. Endertopias' Komirian Army currently has just over 125,000 active personnel, with roughly 250,000 in reserve. A three-month basic military training is compulsory, though it can be replaced by other social work. The majority of personnel is voluntary and professional.▼
▲The Endertopian
Endertopias imports most of its arm from aboard, with Cryria again being a major supplier. The Federation has also developed weapons and technologies in-house, focusing on relatively simple and effective equipment for asymmetrical warfare, especially missiles and projectiles.
Line 137 ⟶ 141:
===Religion===
Endertopias has no official religion and government operations are by law separate from religions. Ademarism was first brought in by Asendavian immigrants and cemented later by Cryrians. The Endertopian Church of Ademar is headed by Osterik Lethmian, a member of the former Endrian royalty. Other polytheistic religions of elves are widely practised especially in Iferia. There is also an increasing part of irreligious population.
