== History ==
In 500 CE, the Tuwak Imamate was established after Imam Tuwak I settled with his family and subjects on the northeastern coast of modern day Fidakar. The area had a deep natural harbour and was surrounded by easily defensible hills. An iron age agricultural society thrived in the fertile and thickly forested territory of Tuwak.
To the northeast, about a 100 kilometres away, the Dominion of Exeter was founded in 521 CE by Dominator Exet I after his tribe, the Marionites, were evicted from Gahayal, then known as Rumaxud, to the northwest about 200 kilometres away. Exet I and his people conquered the small villages of the Tubarites who lived in the area of modern Exeter, which was named after him following his death in 534 CE. Exet I believed that his daughter Abaxaliya should succeed him as the Dominatrix, on the condition that she rule with a man not from Exeter as the new Dominator.
Abaxaliya sent a party to scout surrounding lands for a suitable husband and her party proposed marriage to Prince Nejad of Tuwak. He accepted the proposal and journeyed to Exeter to meet her for the first time on their wedding day. Abaxaliya was pleased with her scouts' choice of mate and Prince Nejad was declared the Dominator of Exeter and lived there.
Prince Nejad was elected by the Council of Imams to the Throne of Tuwak and thus became the Chief Imam of Tuwak, unifying the thrones of Tuwak and Exeter under the Tuwak dynasty. Tuwak and Exeter remained largely separate with Nejad's successors preferring to rule Tuwak from Exeter. They ruled through feudalism, with Tuwakite and Exetite Princes made Lords and allowed to raise armies and collect taxes from the vassals who lived on the land that the Dominator-Chief Imam granted.
In 621, Rahal of Tuwak-Exeter sought to control the flow of spices that were originating from Rumaxud, which the Dominators of Rumaxud charged increasingly high taxes for. Tuwak-Exeter sent an army to Rumaxud and conquered the Rumaxudite dynasty and renamed the area to Gahayal, after Rahal's mother. Rahal declared himself the Golden Dominator and renamed his realms, the Golden Dominion of Rahal. His successors consolidated rule over the different parts of the Dominion and established a central government with the seat in a city on the coast called Ubran which they built starting in the 650s.
The Rahalite dynasty expanded control of the northeast of modern Fidakar up to and included modern-day Tasselvalta, where they displaced and assimilated the pastoral and herder nomadic tribes, hunter gatherers and stone age agricultural hamlets that populated much of the area. Where they introduced the iron age innovations that they had inherited from the Rumaxud. The Rahalites largely remained within their borders after the struggle of crossing the Ubrahamahan River and conquering the lands on the other side proved too great. They were also shielded from the other nations across the river.

Under his rule, his relatives were placed in charge of the settlements surrounding the city of Ubran that he had conquered.
