Modern Verian history begins with the rise of the Kingdom of Àthia, formed from the unification of the County of Kèr Seanaire with the lesser Àthic city states. Under the semi-mythical King Alator à Seanaire, the Kingdom of Àthia conquered most of the Verian Isles, spreading what would eventually become [[w:Scottish Gaelic|Àthaic]], the modern language of Veria. Though Àthia eventually collapsed in the Àthic Strife upon the death of King Alator II, the Mòrrùn Kingdom rose from the conflict of the Strife, establishing itself as the first true predecessor to the modern Verian state. It was during the Mòrrùn Era that the Kingdom of Malainn was conquered and subjugated, marking it as one of the five principal kingdoms of the Verian Isles. The Mòrrùn Era ended with the partition of the kingdom between the three heirs of King Arlen V in 979.
 
The High Kingdom of Veria as it exists today was born in the aftermath of the [[Veria#Verian Consolidation Wars|Verian Consolidation Wars]], a series of military and religious conflicts spanning roughly the first half of the 14th century. By the conclusion of the Consolidation Wars, King Midir of Àthia held the crowns of all five kingdoms, and was crowned as the first High King of Veria. Under his rule the Verian Guilds came into formal power, and the exploration that would eventually lead to Verian colonialism began. The colonial period lasted from the 15th century to the early 20th, ending with the outbreak of the [[Great War]], and only briefly interrupted in the 18th century with the [[Veria#Guilder Revolt|Guilder Revolt of 1717]], which most historians mark as the origin of the contemporary Verian government.
