Etymology
History
Prehistory
Pre-Atsiq Empire
Prior to the Atsiq Empire, Kolikon was inhabited by various disparate chiefdoms and local rulers. According to folklore and oral tradition, the lands of Kolikon were subject to frequent peasant revolts and instability, with the nobility almost being overthrown in X’s War. As a result, in the 600s CE the Confederation of Kolikon would arise, a decentralized nation made to maintain and protect the power structures of the local nobility. This confederation would be lead by an elected Duchess(?), who would act as a mediator for the various noble clans. With newfound alliances between the nobility, the Confederation would go on to crush the rising tide of peasant revolts and would gradually incorporate more clans into the Confederation.
