Line 72: − Settlers arrived in modern day Baydor as early as 30000 B.C., but the modern population originates from Dolfik migration to the South. − The region of Baydor use to be inhabited by lorbic tribes up in till the Baydorian invasions from 446-500 when the Baydorian tribes united into a cohesive group. After the invasions the Baydorian tribes settled down and formed separate states. These Pegan would come to an end around 1000ad when one of the northern most duchies turned to Christianity, forming the Grand dutchy of Baydor. The grand dutchy would try and spread Christianity to the other duchies in the area and absorbing them into the realm. While they would have some success, by 1150 it became apparent that it would need to change its strategy and get help. Thus a holy order was formed, the lorbic knight's, who came mostly from Dolfikland to help the crusade. By 1274 western andolia was under christian rule with the grand duchy greatly expanding it territory, however lands got from the lorbic knights would become the Lorbic order a theocratic state who refused to bow to the king of Baydor. This result in the Baydorian- lorbic war in 1511. − − The 1600 would be a golden age for the Grand dutchy of Baydor and see the rise to a minor great power. − 1720's The grand dutchy of Baydor is defeated after the great western war. In the wake of the defeat counties and duchy's began to figh the king for control of the grand dutchy, however no one power could win resulting in the formation of dozens of dutchy's across the former "empire" − In the 1800 The lorbic region was made up of a dozen independent nations. Due to north Lorbic plane being the only why Dolfik and Anderian army's could engage each other, both empires tied to increases there influence in the region to swing the balance of power in the continent in their favour. − − − − By the early 1900's, Baydor was unified as the Grand Duchy of Baydor, a constituent of the Dolfik crown. Rule by a foreign power led to notable partisan influence, in the form of the BLA ([[Baydor Liberation Army]]), as well as the socialist-leaning LRA ([[Lorbic Republican Army]]). Baydor played a significant strategic role in the [[Great War]], used by Dolfikland to launch its invasion of [[Anderia]] in 1918. As the war became more of a stalemate and support for the war was began to fade the BLA and LRA began to increase in popularity. The LRA was most popular in the West Baydor where as the BLA where more popular in the north due to there support of prince Leopold. In 1926 the allies launched one of the largest amphibious assault's in history with the invasion of west Baydor. The Allies had coordinated there attack with the LRA who had sabotaged local defences before the landing's. The Baydorian and Dolfik army tried to contain the beach head but they soon Brooke out and had liberated West Baydor. This was a disaster and had dashed any hope for Dolfikland's victory in the war, it was during this last year of the war where some of the largest battles of the war took place as tanks maneuvered across the north lorbic low lands. In late 1927 the union of Baydor was formed but due to members of the norther aristocracy disliking the egalitarian views from the west as well as disagreements between the BLA and LRA, the union failed and split up into the Republic of West Baydor and the Commonwealth of Baydor by 1928. The commonwealth in theory was a democracy but most the power was in the hands of the Noble houses. This new nation was very unstable due to issues between the ethnically lorbic nobles and ethnically Dolfik onces, as well as this radical socialist who use to be members in the LRA where preparing for a socialist revolt. 1930 the revolt happened and after 3 months of bloody fighting the socialist republic of Baydor was formed. However this republic was ultimately doomed due to defeats at the hand of Dolfikland in border disputes as well as a growing famine. Prince Leopold 2nd who was critical of the socialist manged to unite the Baydorian and the Dolfik nobles to help defeat a common enemy, further more Leopold was already popular with members of the BLA and the peasants. In June 1932 a series of riots in the major cities began and the BLA lead by Leopold began it's counter revolution and eventually they stormed the capital building in Portstone, this lead to the communist forces declaring the end of the Socialist Peoples Republic of Baydor. After the end of the communist regime the 2nd Commonwealth of Baydor was set up with Prince Leopold being elected prime minister. Communist Anderia who supported the communist regiem in Baydor decladed war due to the collapse of the socialist republic, however the Anderians where defeated in the famous battle of Kasculava. Eventually after a successful referendum to restore the monarchy Prime Minister Prince Leopold became King Leopold 2nd. King Leopold would remain Prime minister till he died in 1956. Leopold's rein is seen as time of peace and independence form Dolfikland, because of this people in Baydor today often glories this period by calling it a golden era. Despite this reputation the nation in this period of time was still recovering from the war and poverty was still a big issue. Massive instability Followed the death of King Leopold 2nd as ethnic tensions what Leopold had relived had sparked up again with in the nobility. While this was happening, the Dolfikland economic miracle was in full swing, because Baydors despite economic situation as well as members in the goverment wanting to use Dolfikland to increases there influence, Baydor ended up joining the Meanwealth ( a Dolfik controlled economic block). Baydor joining the Mean wealth in the 60's was seen by some people as a return of Dolfikland's imperialism and because of this the LRA and BLA returned and began to take part in terrorist activities. The LRA soon became more influential than the BLA due to working with anti-Dolfik terror groups in Suroig as well as getting support from communist Anderia who wanted to explort the revolution. The BLA and the LRA worked to gather but as of the late 70's and 80's they became enemies and they would some times work with the goverment and Dolfikland to fight one another. In the 90's the national league − formed as a mostly far right group who would fight members of the LRA, due to believing that the BLA was not doing enough to counter communism most members of the BLA joined the league. This all accumulated in the 2006 battle of Dansberg when communist LRA members declared a socialist − republic, in response the league took up arms and battled the communist, whilst this happened the government gave weapons to the league. After the battle anti-Dolfik violence began to die down and a period of relative peace began. In 2009 senior members of the league decided to run in politics' as so created there own political party, the Nationalist Workers party (the NWP). The NWP still had ties with the league and as a result members of the league would attack anti NWP politicians. In 2021 the NWP candidate Jacob Hutman became prime minister.
