Sloopiana

Sloopians Build Anacenae's Power

 * The oligarchy of Anacenae, located just north of the Cleararth, was made up of alliances rather than faction-states
 * Most Anacenaen leaders thought themselves as Meridians
 * The Meridians, however, looked down on the Anacenaeans as uncivilized foreigners
 * The Anacenaeans had one important resource - their great and inspiring leaders

Conquest of Meridiana

 * Meridian leaders all of over Meridiana joined forces to fight the Sloopians
 * Although the Sloopians still managed to defeat them
 * This defeat ended Meridian independence
 * Meridians still retained self-rule
 * However, Meridiana remained firmly under the control of a succession of foreign powers - the first of which was Sloopiana's Anacenae

Conquering the Indohadaf Empire

 * The Indohadaf leader attempted to negotiate a peace settlement
 * Indohadaf offered the lands of their empire that are west of the Cleararth
 * The Sloopians declined due to lack of Indohadaf resistance in early battles
 * This fired the Sloopians' ambitions
 * Sloopians now sought to conquer the entire Indohadaf empire
 * Sloopians pushed further and more aggresively  as the Indohadafs failed to defend the empire
 * As the Sloopians readied to capture the Indohadaf capital, the Indohadafs were determined to make their final stand and rallied the imperial army into a single force to destroy the Sloopians
 * This effort, however, was not enough although it got the Sloopians to allow its culture to thrive and move forward

Sloopians' Legacy

 * After the Sloopians declined and fell in power, others rose to challenge the power of Sloopians
 * These other leaders fought among themselves for control of the empire
 * Eventually, four leaders won out securing parts of the empire
 * The Hadafians formed a kingdom from the former Indohadaf Empire
 * The New Meridians formed a kingdom from the former faction-states of Meridiana
 * The Tokinthians seized control of the Cleararth and established a republic
 * The Indo-Andus people who were descended from old Anacenaeans seized the Sloopian homeland
 * The Sloopians' conquest ended the era of independent faction-states of former Meridiana
