History

Origins

On 30-10 1795 TT Kadar, a Karinian, announced to his tribal groups that he had foresight powers and could drive back the Andu Kur during their next large-scale attack. To some this marked the beginning of the Akarian identity.

The Andu Kur launched a full-on invasion of Kadar's forces on 26-4 1791 TT. On 11-7, 1787 TT Kadar's forces managed to route what was left of the Andu Kur and capture the Andu city of Kanda. Kadar and the leaders of his various tribal allies remained at the ruins of the city for ten days. On that tenth day when no Andu forces arrived, they declared the war over and began discussing what to do next. It was three days after that on 24-7 1787 TT that the Akarinian Confederation was established with Kadar as its first leader. The term "Akarinian" was derived from Kadar's tribal groups which were the Amarken and the Arkaran.
