The area that comprises Iganar has been inhabited by modern Felines for tens of thousands of years. The first inhabitants used stone and bone tools and wore loin cloths made from animal skins. They were hunters and gatherers who relied on the meat of fish and the herds of migratory antelopes, and foraged edible plants. A few thousand years ago, Felines began to domesticate animals such as cattle, sheep, horses, camels and goats for their meat and secondary products such as fur, pelts and milk. Additionally they also domesticated chickens and consumed their eggs. They also began to cultivate and selectively breed various grains and tubers so that they could increase their food consumption. This resulted in the formation of sedentary settlements built from wood, mud, grass and stone.
The people then began to use tools made from metals by being able to use wood and furnaces to create hot fires that enabled them to smelt and refine ores. The civilisations in the area were largely small tribes and city states that were often engaged in warfare against each other. With the advent of writing from the nations in [[Ashura]] and the codification of mythologies and laws by prominent writers and scholars such as [[Prophet Besmali]] and Lord Tiraz Mahal that today form the [[Writings of Paxism]], systems of government were established that led to the formation of larger Kingdoms that encompassed large areas.
In the area that makes up [[Zukaril]], was ruled by the Kingdom of Turhadek in the 2nd millenium BCE, arguably the oldest of the ancient kingdoms which was destroyed a few centuries later. The Sorceriocracy of Exkhanad was established some centuries later based on mystical traditions that incorporated [[Paxism]] with native traditions, astrology and sorcery. Parts of the western nations were absorbed by the Kingdom of Yehudah. Some eventually became independent of the Central [[Ufrata River]] Basin kingdoms such as a matriarchal polity called the Queendom of Zukaril. In the early 1st millenium CE, the Kingdom of Bakil again from the Central Ufrata River Basin invaded and subsumed the Kingdoms in the Iganar area, especially to the west and interior.
Kingdoms further to the east were absorbed into the expanded Kingdom of Bakil which is now known as [[Packilvania]] by the Iktan dynasty following attempts by [[Iktan the Devout]] to suppress the proliferation of a religious text known as the Haagemar which was commissioned by the Warmadite dynasty King Obed II of [[Bingol]]. Iganar remained an integral part of Packilvania for centuries until the Iktanite dynasty fell in the 12th century which gave rise to petty kingdoms that remained under the suzerainty of the [[Magisterium of Paxism]] which managed to remain in power based out of the city of [[Adrien]] and exercised control over the historic territories of the old Kingdom of Bakil. In the area comprising modern day Mekedesh, the Ruler of Tashkar, [[Ishak I]], defeated and conquered Bingol and began an expansion that saw Iganar become part of the reestablished Packilvania under the [[Zubraynite dynasty]]. In the late 13th century, the Zubraynite dynasty faced financial and political issues that gave rise to instability and resistance including from the feudal lords of Iganar who switched their allegiance to the more prosperous and militarily powerful Kingdom of Fidakar under the [[Demirite dynasty]] whose head, [[Saidun the Conqueror]] became the first [[Sultan of Packilvania]].
Iganar became a province that was increasingly governed by representatives of the central government in Bingol. It was one of the last parts of Packilvania to fall to the rule of the [[Packilvanian Communist Party]] during the First Packilvanian Civil War. Attempts to suppress religion by the government led by [[Gideon Muktan]] and its successors were largely unsuccessful. Despite the role of religion being circumscribed for thousands of years and the systemic termination and displacement of minority species and religious groups. Massive oil and gas deposits were discovered in the 20th century in addition to existing oil, gas and coal reserves that fuelled the Packilvanian economy. Around halfway through the Second Packilvanian Civil War, Iganar switched allegiance to the [[Carriers of Mercy]] which by that time ruled over Ashura, [[Shakar]] and [[Jumhurikesh]] and claimed to be the sole government of the country. It was the site of heavy fighting between the Communists and the Carriers, such that a nuclear attack on the town of Ashmayira prompted the collapse of the Communist government and the establishment of a theocratic absolute monarchy under the [[Bedonite dynasty]].
