Ari Empire

The Ari Empire (or Aree / 1 - 303 A.D. [1 - 303 D.E.]) was a empire that lasted for 303 years and would be the largest empire in history, spanning from western Vonoss to the eastern parts along the Vonnosian Sea. The Arian Time was created because of it.

History
In the Kingdom of Arkya, Aeron I the Great had died in 13 B.E. Aeron had 2 heirs from 2 wives, Aeron II and Davron I. This started the Arkyan Civil War. In the end, Aeron II won and had Davron exiled to a small island. At 1 B.E., Aeron invaded the nearby kingdoms of Saeriya and Normia, and formed the Ari Empire. In 2 D.E., the city of Bengaloss was built on the Adrianic Sea. The name comes from Old Arian Benga, sea, and Aloss, city (the Sea City). But in 15 D.E., Aeron II died and his son Aeron III took power. Aeron soon expanded the empire for 43 years from 16 - 59 D.E. He would die later in 62 D.E. His son, Aeron IV would lead the empire to its largest through 92 years from the age of 9 (65 - 157 D.E.) His grandson, Aeron V would only invade a small portion of land and after Aeron V, the empire would collapse for the next 80 years.

Civil War
In 293 D.E., King Baeron VI would die without an heir, and his cousins would fight for the crown. His first- cousin was Eron X of the House of Aleka, and his second-cousin was Naeron III of the House of Naevron. Their dispute soon became a civil war that even went outside of the empire's borders into the Northern Tribes. The 2 sides attacked each other and even neutral cities. By 302 D.E., Naeron won, but was killed by his guard, Ser Daev of Maegresh. After Naeron's death, the empire finally collapsed in 303 D.E.
