The House of Oshar is a Zarasaist Vaniuan imperial dynasty originating from the Golden Steppes, northern Vaniua in the late 13th century CE. It is one of the largest and most historically significant royal houses in Vaniua. It is composed of the descendants of Şî Óşar, founder of the Great Horde and conqueror of Eastern Vaniua (c. 1289-1657). It is most notable for its rapid expansion to Eastern Vaniu after the conquest of the Khanate of Qomandi and the fall of the Kalkali Khanate (700-1220). Its gradual expansion to the east led to a large influx of demographic changes which are still seen today.
The House of Oshar has gone through four phases: The Great Horde (c. 1289-1657), known for being a Golden age for Vaniua, the Koman kingdoms (1657-1811), marked by continuous infighting and armed conflicts, the Imperial unification on 15 January 1811, which led to the proclamation of the Imperial State and the unification of Komania and the overthrow of the Mishayan and Basher regimes (1811-1880)(1880-1958) accordingly, leading to a stage of political instability in the Koman state.
Etymology
The name Oshar comes from its founder Şî Óşar who founded the newly proclaimed Great Horde in 1289. Today the name Óşar is carried by its descendants whom can claim royal heritage only through paternal lineage.
