Forian Kingdom (Lithian: Zinmitz), officially the Sovereign Kingdom of the Four Swords (Lithian: Milavad Yeruv yZinmitz, Rudanian: Genyerû Zinmitz) was a sovereign state and a thalassocratic monarchy in maritime East Soltenna.
The kingdom was established in 1386 through incorporation of Forian Confederation's four city-states, that being Nataliya, Dukrone, Hagd, and Iáecla. Incorporated in a response to the growing Terminian Empire, the four constituent states established a central monarchy, consolidated and shared naval control of the Amiyant Sea, and prospected new Forian routes in the Gulf of Sharkunen. In its early years the Forian Kingdom prospered on the trade of salt, and in later years on trade of luxury goods and through accumulated wealth of Forian merchant dynasties.
