'''Tretrid''' ([[w:Old English|Tretridian]]: ᚦᚱᛖᚾᛁᚪ, ''Þrenia''), officially known as the '''Kingdom of Tretrid''', is a nation located in southern [[Novaris]]. It is
Tretrid's history dates back to the Threnian Kingdom of antiquity, which lasted roughly from the 1st century BCE to the Tore Eruption of 512, after which resulting famine tore the polity apart, leading to its utter collapse and much of its territory fragmenting into smaller, more isolated city-states. The following centuries were characterized by infighting among these city-states, as well as the rise and fall of Westrice, which was situated north of formerly Threnian lands.
The arrival of Ulvrikian settlers from the east in the 11th century lead to a chain of mass migration and ensuing turmoil, followed by the rapid consolidation of Tretrid into three kingdoms, a state that would last for about 200 years until Ælfric I unified the peninsula and proclaimed the creation of the Kingdom of Tretrid in 1256. Over the next two centuries, Tretrid would expand into Dallacquan lands and gain more and more power in Novaris. This expansionism reached its peak in the 15th century with the establishment of [[Tretridian West Novaris]]. After the [[War of the Tretridian Succession]], in which Tretridian West Novaris was partitioned by [[Norgsveldet]] and Asendavia, Tretrid maintained a colony in the form of [[Tretridian Nordenpunto]], and later established [[Transnalpia]] as a means to easier access Nordenpunto. However, in 1981 [[Nordenpunto]] gained independence, seemingly marking an end to the Tretridian Colonial Empire. However, Tretrid still has [[Transnalpia]] as a dependency.
Tretrid has historically been one of the premier powers of Novaris, which would often brought it into conflict with other nations. Indeed, the first 4 centuries of the unified Tretrid's history was largely characterized by its power struggles with Dallacqua, though this largely ended as Dallacqua declined. During the 18th century, Tretrid fought a war with [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalria]] and waged multiple wars against Norgsveldet. However, the rise of [[Arkalarius]] as a regional power in Novaris and later as a great power brought it into direct conflict with Tretrid, starting in the early 19th century. This rivalry resulted in the countries taking opposing sides in the [[Great War]] and eventually culminated in the Novaran Cold War that pervaded much of the 20th century. The collapse of the [[Arkian Confederation]] and the resulting [[Arkian Civil War]] ended the Novaran Cold War in Tretrid's favor. However, the rise and fall of [[Karolingia]], among other things, have reignited tensions between Tretrid and Arkalarius, enough to the point where most agree that the Karolingian crisis marked the start of a Second Novaran Cold War.
