History

The Founding

In the year 659, a group of explorers from a Phinbellan region wandered to modern-day Bandar Lama. To surprise, the explorers found gold and rare-looking species of Panthers all around the place. After days of exploring the area more, they decided to settle down and called their family and friends. They then named the area Bandar after many settled down.

The Mix

A while after the Phinbellan settled down in Bandar, a group of immigrants from central Eura found more land near modern-day Bandar Lama (Bandar), in which they found small villages with only a few people. They were invited to settle down. As the area gets more populated, people from Bandar reached out to them to make the area more populated, which they could make Bandar Bharu. In the end, they merged the land of immigrants from central Eura with Bandar and named the place Bandar Bharu.

The Baatharzi Empire

Zyrkistan only consisted of Bandar Bharu and other small areas surrounding it until the year 1738. During that year, The Baatharzis came to the ends of Bandar Bharu's smaller areas, in which they agreed with Bandar Bharu's government to help grow the place in exchange for gold. Afterwards, they found multiple lands that consist of modern-day Zyrkistan. Modern-day state Al Zuhur was a land filled with beautiful flower scenery surrounding it, hence the name Zuhur. After successfully helping Bandar Bharu expand, the two parties reached an agreement in 1869 to merge as one nation, Zyrkistan, with eight states and Bandar Bharu as the capital.
