New Makyan Empire

"'FOR MAKY'S GLORY!' -Maky shortly after reforming into the New Makyan Empire"The New Makyan Empire is a nation based around the Makyna River. It is the current incarnation of the Makyan nation, becoming the 7th Kingdom and 2nd Empire in this culture's history.

Formation and War with Kurkar
After the Third Maky Kingdom gained independence from Oppia in 178, an era of peace and reconstruction set in on the new nation. However, this merely lasted 7 years. In 185, Kurkar invaded Maky to take food. A large faction of the Makyan government realized the only chance for their nation to defeat Kurkar and to remain independent from foreign powers is to reform the nation into an empire like the First Makyan Empire, staging a coup and taking control of the country. The New Makyan Empire defeated the invasion force from Kurkar and forced them out of their nation. They continued fighting, invading Kurkar and forcing the nation's people to flee, burning down all the settlements of Kurkar.

Annexation of Dyri and Vaximor
After winning the war, The Makyan Empire focussed on diplomacy. It peacefully annexed Vaximor and Dyri in 191, in exchange for preserving their cultures and promising a strong, united empire. This created the Vaximor Autonomous Region and the Dyri Autonomous Region.

Expansion West
In 193, Maky decided to take revenge on the Oppians for their conquest and subsequent occupation of the Makyan nation for so long. As their first step, Maky invaded and conquered a small Oppian state to their west, further expanding their coastline. The next step in the imperial expansion was taken in the year 200, when Maky used Bavatis to invade and annex Thalmoria.

Maky was relatively quiet for the next 10 years, while tacitly spreading its influence into neighboring countries and sending spies all around the Gomic. In 210, Queen Ceona of Maky managed to convince Ratonasha I of Moxon into marrying his crown prince Paro to the sister of the Makyan king, Talova, in order that their son would become the heir to both the Makyan and Maxan thrones.
