'''c. 2000 BCE-1000 BCE''' - existence of a civilization on Antharian ground, which was reconstructed between 1850 and [Great War] to what is now the Mardoumakh language and culture, from inscriptions found and various South Slevic toponyms in the area, which the hypothetical Mardoumakh language is a substrate of.

'''800 BCE''' - earliest findings of Moorsh (ancestor of Iviran culture, probably having migrated there?) presence in the Borrogan plain (today in Antharia).

'''c. 500 BCE''' - first confirmed Hellanesian presence in the region (around what is now Nikopal, Antharia). Hellanesians were nomadic people, their presence having been confirmed in various places throughout southern Uletha. Unclear how they crossed the Mediterranean Sea (legendary ancient bridge?).

'''200 BCE''' - first confirmed contact between Hellanesians in the Iviran region and mainland Hellanesia via maritime route.

'''150 BCE''' - Hellanesia colonizes Iviran coast, under the name Antharia (origin of the name unclear, theories during the Romanish Renaissance mentioned an Antharious to have lead Hellanesian nomads to what is now Antharia, but theory can't be confirmed)

'''182 CE '''- Antharia gains political independence from mainland Hellanesia, becoming one of the first kingdoms in Uletha. Kingdom stretches along the Iviran coast, as well as the coast south of the Kiran river. Capital in Shistri (now Histria). The kingdom was subdivided into 16 "dominions", centered around the 16 metropalin Shistri (Histria, Antharia), Peia (Montemassena, Montemassena), Basilopal (Victoria, Demirhan Empire), Alexandraia (Iskenderya, Demirhan Empire), Bubliane (Bubliannay, Antharia), Argitte (Ardeshehir, Demirhan Empire), Plaka (location unknown, Antharia/Niscavo), Tiras (Chyr, Chara Republic), Skain (Ascay, Antharia), Nesklavo (Niskavo, Niscavo), Erolgi (Porterez, Qennes), Shaltai (Zarechye, Chara Republic), Lazarem (Lazurnyi, Chara Republic), Asperis (Aperis, Demirhan Empire), Terian (Troyan, Chara Republic), Krunas (Dovganiouq, Antharia)

'''930 CE''' - port of Yaffa (now Yapha, Iviron) is founded between the Antharian palin Peia and Tyras by Garlian merchants seeking to establish own trading hubs near Hellanesian trade routes. The port is situated on a small strip of coast, initially rented from Hellanesians in exchange for a third of incoming and outgoing goods from the territory. Clashes with Osnianit Sur due to proximity to the Sur city of Dukash. First presence of Christicism in the Iviran coast region.

"küçük" = small and eg./an.

'''2016''' - Union plans between Antharia and Iviron put on hold due to Transmarmatia conflict.

==Discussion==
Decided to publish the draft from my notes with the more elaborated history around the territories I own, after I noticed somebody changed names of towns in the border region of Chara republic to Iviron - can these name changed be discussed first? I mentioned before that this area is of historical relevance to Antharia and Iviron.

Anybody feel free to contest any of the bullet points i mentioned here, I'd be happy to see people also adding historical events regarding Iviran Coast territories they work/ collaborate on.

Note: I left out any mention of Kartledgians, as I intend to remove elements of Georgian from Antharia --[[User:Stjur|Stjur]] ([[User talk:Stjur|talk]]) 10:09, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
