The United States of Central Kafrica (USCK) is a Federal Presidential Republic located on the continent of Kafrica, founded in 2190 as a result of a referendum in 2188.

Etymology

Documented usage of the phrase "Central Kafrica" is derived from the Strelkan state of Middlekafrica, in order to distance the new budding republic from the oppressive Goverments of the 22nd and late 21st centuries, it was translated to the predominant local Koster language. The United States prefix of the nation's name is to denote the form of decentralized government.

History

This Article only serves to give a brief overview of the history of Central Kafrica, see the Main Article: History of Central Kafrica

Ancient Krome

Central Kafrica's history goes back to numerous Koster peoples, notably including the ancient Kromans who conquered the Kafraic Plain during the Bown Republic and ruled it for centuries during the Bown Empire.

Ancient Bown, a settlement on the Bown-Samwell plain, founded in 735 Before Kraken, was ruled for 325 years by a Kingdom which fell in 410 BK, with the creation of the Republic.

The Bown-Samwell plain was turned into a unified entity during Bownian expansion, the conquest of territories often to the expense of other Kafraic tribes, Comeri, Etisolani and Vocavii. A perminant association with most of the tribes and cities was formed, Bown began the conquest of modern day Grestin, giving the eternal city a buffer from invasions, further expanding into eastern Kafrica up to the river between Westray and Vocavium.

The Kroman Empire was among the largest ancient states, holding immense economic, political and military power over the ancient world.

Central Kafrica in the middle ages

Bordering the Holy Vocavian Empire, the region of Central Kafrica found itself fighting many decentralized border conflicts with itself and others outside the local region, with the memory of the old Bownian Empire still in the religious consciousness of the time, many civil wars were fought between local lords and their feudal overlords over joining the Empire. This is one of the factors in the Kafrican Schism in the 11th Century, where Rinn and Diosca would break away from the church in Windsteer, separating the eternal city of canfield from the political heartland.

Between the late 11th and early 15th centuries, the Holy Vocavian Empire would launch many crusades in the hope of returning the eternal city back under the empire's grip, however it would be pillaged and set aflame numerous times during this period, contributing to various mass famines in the region.

Lovatica

Lovatica was the first confederated state in the region known as Central Kafrica today, its economy was based on the price of the main crop, wheet. Documents from the former Lovatican Government which was seated in Bown show that Kerbals used Wheet as the nation's currency. Lovatica would collapse following a brief period of instability, where a Solarian Minmus native would take control of the government.

Krome

Following the collapse of Lovatica, Rachel Kerman would found the 2nd Kroman Republic, running her government from its inception to her eventual assassination in 2098. Krome was considered a regional power however its diplomatic actions and diplomatic prerogatives were that of a global power, this would eventually cause the Balkanization of Krome.
