Much of Tavari history has been influenced by Akronism, especially as the proportion of Akronists among the population grew larger over time. Most of Tavaris’ overseas territories were originally established by Akronists seeking to spread their faith to the outside world. Akronists established a settlement in [[Metrati Anar]] in 1501 and would eventually become a majority in the territory. [[Rodoka]] was also settled initially by Akronists as well.
In the 17th and early 18th century, Tavaris fought several wars with the Bana, its neighbor to the east, as they competed for influence in the region. When Tavaris attempted to establish a colony, known as the Emerald Coast, in what is now [[Ni-Rao|North Ni-Rao]] in 1668, a major war erupted between Tavaris on one side and both Bana and Ni-Rao on the other. The area had been part of Ni-Rao previously, but had been effectively abandoned after a series of pandemics and military defeats caused the Raonites to withdraw from the region. Bana saw the Emerald Coast as a major provocation, as it amounted to Tavari territory directly bordering theirs, and the Raonites treated the colony as an invasion of their own territory despite having withdrawn. The Emerald Coast War was fought between 1670-1683. Eastern Tavaris was occupied by Bana for several years, but Tavaris was able to outlast its opponents and, after a major mobilization in which all able-bodied adult citizens were conscripted into the military, Tavaris was victorious. Tavaris would later cede the Emerald Coast back to Ni-Rao in 1803 under a treaty agreement that mandated Ni-Rao to continue to allow Akronist missionary activity in the country and to guarantee religious freedom.
The decisive Tavari victory in the Emerald Coast War established Tavaris as the predominant power in the region. However, it also caused severe economic and infrastructural damage, and Tavari colonial efforts slowed as a result. Beginning in the late 18th century, Tavaris began a focused effort to “modernize” the country so it was closer in technological and economic power to the leading countries of the world.

In the current day, Tavaris is a multi-party system in which coalition governments are common, especially since the dawn of the 21st century. The current government, however, is comprised of just one party, after the Democratic National Party (DNP) won a majority in the election on February 10th, 2021. The current leader of the Democratic National Party is [[Žarís Nevran Alandar]], who assumed that position on the 18th of February 2021 when her predecessor was elected International Forum Secretary-General.

===Political geography===
Tavaris is divided into
Areas of Tavaris that are not provinces are administered differently. Metrati Anar and the Isles of Kanor are referred to by a term that translates into Staynish roughly as “Unprovinced Territory.” The Tavari term is ''Nomanerís Ítaktanerísa'', but the Staynish acronym “UPT” is used most commonly. UPTs have an appointed Administrator who is responsible for the day-to-day governance of the territory. Residents of UPTs also elect an Assembly that acts as a legislature, though the Administrator has the power of veto.
