Founded in the early 4th Century as a [[Volkiplemeni]] trading and fishing village, it progressively grew in size to the point where neighboring Volkiplemeni villages amalgamated into one village. The name of the newly combined villages was first recorded as ''Volkgoroda'' in the 6th Century, and makes reference to "many Volkiplemeni cities." It has been the capital of every Volkian state since the Grand Duchy of Volkia rose in 365.
