=== Kingdom of Lagdira ===
[[File:QueenIdun.jpeg|thumb|left|150px|Idun I, First Queen of Lagdira]]
The Kingdom of Lagdira was established by Jarlynja Idun Lagdirn who led the western fleet of the viking host that was led by Børre Fuglestad. Lagdirn’s forces eventually occupied western parts of Ny’Andrestopp in which she then proclaimed the Viking Kingdom of Lagdira on the 10th December 985, crowning herself as Queen. Often seen as one of the most brutal monarchs in the region’s history. With her treatment of enslaved kemonomimi being seen especially cruel, with it being recorded that if any of her personal thralls attempted to escape they would be beheaded and placed as examples in front of her palace. She would rule Lagdira until her death in 1035, reigning for over 50 years and having lived up until she was 85 years old.
Her dynasty would continue to rule Lagdira with an iron fist until the reign of Sigurd IV who ruled in between 1440 and 1485. Under Sigurd’s reign reforms were established that would see the establishment of a Council of Elders which was a council made up of local gothirs and jarls. Heavily decreasing the power of the monarch, ensuring most matters were decided by the council. His reign also saw the start of renewed trade between Lagdira and other Ulvrikian kingdoms, specifically between it and Novreheim. In which Lagdira traded its thralls for weapons and gold. Often seen as the start of the Thrall Trade. Though said trade would end in 1615, as the Lagdiran Succession Crisis abruptly ended it. The succession crisis was started as a result of a dispute of Idun VI's claim to the throne, started by the queen’s cousin Jarl Harald of Østbrygg. Arguing that by ancient Lagdiran law that none of mixed blood could claim the throne, in which arguing that the queen’s mother who was a Norgsveltian Princess would make the queen illegitimate to the throne. In which the crisis ended in a civil war between supporters of the queen and supporters of the jarl. Through support from [[Norgsveldet]] the queen’s forces were available to win against the Jarl’s, though cemented the Norgsveltian influence in Lagdira until the Gothiric Revolution in 1786.
=== First Gothiric Republic ===

==== Constitutional Conventions and Infighting ====
[[File:1798convention.jpeg|thumb|250px|Constitutional Convention of 1798, agreeing upon the fundemental principles of Gothiric Republicanism]]
When the first Gothiric Republic was declared in 1786 it immediately struggled with infighting between members of the Council of Elders and the Revolutionaries. In which the two factions disagreed on how the legislature was going to be formed. With revolutionaries arguing in favor of a legislature chosen directly by the people, while the Elders arguing in favor of a reestablishment of the Council of Elders but further power then what they enjoyed under the kingdom. While both sides were able to come into an agreement it took several constitutional conventions. With the Constitutional Convention of 1798, being the final convention after 12 years of attempting to come to an agreement. The convention agreed upon having a lower house called the Assembly which was made up mostly of the Revolutionaries while having an upper house called the Gothiric Council which was made up of the Elders. It has been largely agreed upon that the only reason Jarisven did not end up in a civil war during this time was because both factions were unified in their hatred of Gustafists who were still loyal to the exiled monarchy.

==== Rise of Darzism ====
[[File:PGP.jpeg|thumb|Deputy Leader of PGP speaking at a rally ]]
As Jarisven entered the 1920s it was faced with massive economic collapse as a result of its entering in the Great War. Oskar Wredde and his party attempted to paint the war as a victory with the nation regaining back the rogue territories of Egstlan and Nykuzniszna, despite those attempts the 1920 parliamentary election ended with a heavy loss for the GRP. In which GWP and AP would form a coalition government. With the rise of [[Hirdism]] in [[Hustreache]] the nation also faced terrorist attacks from the hirdist group NUNA. As a result political instability soon followed which the new government was ill prepared to handle. With the recently elected prime minister Eli Ørnidatur of the AP getting assassinated by the NUNA in 1922. The instability was seized upon by a Gothir named Oriv Darzisa who heavily criticized the establishment parties, be they left or right. Darzisa’s popularity among the public as a well liked member of the clergy and Jarisven society as a whole made the criticism extremely potent. So much so that in 1927 a pro-Darzisa party called the Popular Gothiric Party (PGP) was founded. Whose sole ideals were based around Populism, Patriotism and being Pro-Darzisa to be an alternative to the establishment parties. Though ironically not a founding member Darzisa did join the new party and was immediately placed as its new leader.

==== Early Period (1942-1950) ====
[[File:Darzisa.jpeg|thumb|200px|Oriv Darzisa, Theo-Fascist Dictator of Jarisven (1942-1996)]]
With the establishment of once more a new republic it meant once more a complete reform of institutional power. In which the position of prime minister was replaced with the High Minister which had complete executive power in the nation. In which the position was established so that Darzisa centralized as much power around himself. With the parliament being replaced with the National Council, a small legislature made up of Darzisa most loyal members of the PGP. Under this new republic the theo-fascist ideology of [[Darzism]] was established. One made of mixtures of Darzisa’s personal religious and political views. Despite the extreme changes of Jarisven it did not face heavy instability compared to previous republics. Mainly caused by the Cult of Personality surrounding Darzisa and the generous welfare benefits given to citizens during the first years. Though said benefits were concentrated on the urban Ulvriktru regions of the country. In 1948 Nykuzniszna and Egstlan regions faced extreme oppression from the government, with them being placed under direct control of the military. With forced labor camps called “Lokesleir” being established within the regions. Attempts to free prisoners of the labor camps by local Ny’Sænuri and Egstlan Militants was tried in 1949 but all attempts were brutally cracked down upon. With the Jarisven military using the heads of the militants as trophies, placing them at the camp's gates.
