300:
K'aavjo kingdom founded; empire begins expanding out from East K'aavjo

988:
In an effort to industrialise, Rljada converts large sections of the steppe to agricultural regions, displacing some nomads and pushing them into agricultural professions. Varada quickly denounces that and sets up more robust trade deals with Rljada to discourage it.
989:
Rljada is still unstable and shaky on its feet, so Varadan agents take the opportunity to kick the Kyhke government out. Rljada is a bit put out by this but it takes the opportunity to set up a multi-party system to avoid a single party gaining too much power again. At this point a lot of Rljadans are getting weary of their baby sibling meddling in their internal affairs.
