How the name of the tribe and of the collective came to be is shrouded in mystery and legend. Regardless of the city’s name though, seeing as how Besaid was the center of the nation, and the center of the former empire, which once engulfed the nation; it was thought that the nation was the great, or grander, region whose center was Besaid. Thus, the nation was given the name of Grand Besaid by Dynasty and the other founding fathers of the nation.

Founding of Besaid and the Besaidian Empire


Besaid was founded some three thousand years ago by seeking to worship God without being persecuted. The Besaidian people, being under constant invasion from their neighbors, built massive by combing their unique crafts together in order to protect them and allow them to prosper in their city. These walls lead to great prosperity and the making of a, an that would stretch across most of the eastern world. As an empire, Besaid was a center of and  prosperity; its constant expansions caused it to be the largest and most powerful empire in the entire world. After flourishing for well over two-thousand years, the empire slowly shark into a mere regional nation, being only steps away from being a.

Conquest of the Coalition of Nations and Eperyllian Occupation
After millennia of power and might, the Besaidian Empire was weak. This weakness was seen as an opportunity by its long time enemies, who banded together to form a coalition of nations which was able to conquer the wilting Besaidian Empire.

This coalition of nations was very unorganized and quarreled amongst its self constantly. This allowed for a large, neighboring empire to swoop in and take control of Besaid and the surrounding areas which are now Grand Besaid. For a few hundred years, the Empire of Eperyllia occupied the city of Besaid, and the it would later be  of. While the began out as easy and fine, it quickly escalated to become a nightmare for the Besaidian People. This helped lead to Besaidian session.

Early in the War
The Grand Besaidian War for Independence took started out with the Empire of Eperyllia oppressing the people of Grand Besaid and later issuing the New Act of the Besaidian Providence which caused further oppression and tyranny. As the people of Grand Besaid began to protest and rebel against the act and the Eperyllian Empire in general, violence started to break out. Immediately Dynasty and other early Grand Besaidian leaders issued a declaration of independence.

The Battle of Besaid
Not long after Grand Besaid’s declaration of independence, Eperyllia sent a large numer of forces to besiege the city of Besaid in hopes that it would cause the revolution to come to a halt. The Besaidians, however, came up with an ingenious system of tunnels that allowed for supplies and men to get around the Eperyllian forces without them knowing. While this proved useful for negating the siege, it didn’t help them to physically fight the Eperyllians. During the siege, wave after wave of Grand Besaidian artillery and infantry were launched against Eperyllian forces without much success. Both sides were sustaining heavy casualties, but the Grand Besaidians were taking far more casualties. Dynasty and Norman Isable, after seeing this over and over, devised a plan to create a force that would surely prove victorious.

The two founded the Knights of Besaid, an elite military force to combat the Eperyllians. During the Battle of Besaid, the Knights of Besaid acquired and trained some 1,750 highly elite members for combat. These “Knights” managed to push the Eperyllian forces far out of the city, and even across their own border, in a mere matter of days. The Knights of Besaid not only used their brutal skills and strength to fight, but also their cunning strategy and knowledge of traps and terrain warfare. These "Knights" were so well known for their protection and loyalty to Besaid and Grand Besaid as a whole, that they were officially proclaimed "The Protectors of Grand Besaid". This title would help to establish their three specific modern duties: the protection of Grand Besaid, the guarding of dignitaries, and the performance of difficult and elite tasks. Not only did the battle play a major role in the founding of the Knights of Besaid, but it also gave the rebellion a useful tool for recruiting efforts, using the attack to show Eperyllian cruelty, and the victory to show Grand Besaidian strength.

The Rebellion's New Direction
Soon after the attack on Besaid, the first leaders organized a transitional revolutionary government and begin to organize the military forces of the emerging nation. At first, the military forces had outdated equipment and little training. As such, many of the early battles of the Grand Besaidian War for Independence ended in defeats for the Grand Besaidians. As battle after losing battle was fought, many began to question Dynasty's leadership and the rebellion itself. Almost as soon as Dynasty's leadership was questioned and his popularity plumitted, foreign funds were finally granted by several nations through loans and aid; loans and aid that Dynasty had been working tirelessly to secure.

These new funds allowed for Grand Besaid to revitalize its armed forces; some nations even aided Grand Besaid with weapons and training equipment, both of which were in short supply. For the next four years the war seemed as though it would never end with both sides pushing into each other's territory, before losing their newly captured territory and having the other side push into their core territory. All the while, Eperyllia continued to push for the surrendering of all Grand Besaidian forces, promising to spare the lives of the soldiers who surrendered. Their ploy was largely unsuccessful.

A New Plan
Soon, the government of Grand Besaid was finally able to develop a plan which would allow them to be able to take over the capital of Eperyllia, Odeusaga, by it. The plan called for a straight march and assualt upon some of the most fortified areas in all of the Eperyllian Empire, followed by an attack from three different directions. The plan was approved by the provisional Senate of Grand Besaid after only two days of deliberation.

After a few victories, and a restored confidence in both Dynasty and the rebellion, the plan was ready to be put into action. Luckily for the Grand Besaidians, a typhoon slammed into the region that they were about to attack, devastating many of the Eperyllian encampments, forts, and reinforcements. This allowed the Grand Besaidian forces to easily conquer many of the obstacles that had faced it, marching all but twenty of the two-thousand miles to the Capital of Eperyllia with little resistance.

With twenty miles to go, one of the last battles of the war broke out, the Battle of Uda. The battle lasted for a mere three hours, and was a quick victory for Grand Besaidian forces. After the battle had ended, the Grand Besaidians continued their march to Odeusaga, only stopping upon reaching the city's walls. The siege and various planned attacks were implemented and left the city in ruins after only two months. The emperor of Eperyllia, facing certain defeat, agreed to recognize Grand Besaidian independence and pay for the.

The Counter Strike
After a mere six months of peace, the Empire of Eperyllia attempted to take Grand Besaid back under its control and sent forces across Grand Besaid’s border. Within hours, the forces were crushed and Grand Besaid sent their forces across the Eperyllian border, eventually conquering Eperyllia, and making it part of Grand Besaid. This operation was to be known as the Counter Strike.

First Republic

 * Main articles: First Republic of Grand Besaid

Not long after Grand Besaid gained its independence, it had to create a permanent government. After long deliberations, and lengthy planning, it was decided that Grand Besaid would become a republic with many direct democratic systems, and that it would keep an ancient tradition, the Democratic Assembly.

The First Republic consisted of a Triumvirate, a House of Chancellors, and a House of Delegates for an executive branch. The Triumvirate, headed by the non-voting Supreme Chancellor was the reactionary sector of the executive branch, reacting to problems and crises. The House of Delegates was in charge of appointments, and the House of Chancellors was a combined elected executive and cabinet.

A Supreme Court, a House of the Judiciary, and a Council of the Judiciary made up the judicial branch of the First Republic.

The Legislature of the First Republic consisted of a Senate, a House of Representatitves, and a National Council. The House of Representatives was meant to represent the people, the Senate was supposed to represent the states, and the National Council was supposed to represent the entire nation. One of the major problems with the legislature, was the difficulty for anything to pass all three houses in the same form.

The first republic was seen as a rather weak republic, having little power and much confusion. It came about mostly because of people's fears of a strong, powerful central government.

Economic Boom and the Banker Push
Soon after the independence of Grand Besaid, a huge wave of sprawled in from all over the world, and the  of Grand Besaid expanded vastly on its own. The combination of these two factors lead to Grand Besaid having a tremendously large population that began to increase exponentially. This great and very constant increase allowed Grand Besaid to accumulate tons of and expand its  before  hit, thus allowing its economy to exponentially increase.

The combination of the and  allowed Grand Besaid to begin producing  at unfathomable rates, and create advanced  not previously seen. The careers of, , and boomed the greatest, though every field saw a great increase. As well, this time saw an increasing amount of and ; this not only helped to meet the spiritual needs of the growing population of Grand Besaid but it also helped to spread their faith of.

This economic boom coincided with Grand Besaid’s Banker Push, which began on October 5, 2009 as sponsored by the Mostly Harmless Alliance. It ended roughly 20 days later and allowed Grand Besaid to not only Purchase a Stock Market, its first wonder, but also increase and greatly develop its and technology. This, on top of its previous economic expansion, would lead to a future chapter, known as the Technological Empire.

Civil War
Grand Besaid was founded with a very democratic government, probably being one of the closest things to a that could have functioned in the world during the time of the. A large faction, commonly known as Democrats, wanted to revive this democracy of old. After the Banker Push had ended, and Grand Besaid became a stable economic powerhouse, there was a great dispute as to how Grand Besaid should be. Roughly half of the population wanted to keep the current republic, roughly a quarter wanted a new republic, and roughly another quarter wanted a form of. The debate soon raged into protests from the Democrats, as the nation became more and more divided. Prejudice and quarrels broke out between the groups, and the Democrats were determined to escalate the violence. The Democrats began trying to take over public building in the state of Oyen, and before long, the two sides, the Republicans and the Democrats, split the nation in two as war broke out between them.



The Civil War was fought between the erroneously named North-Eastern Grand Besaid, who really controlled the north and northwestern areas of Grand Besaid, and South-Western Grand Besaid, who really controlled the south and southeastern areas of Grand Besaid. The Civil war started out as a standoff between two sides using {{wikipedia|trench warfare}}, eventually turning in to a {{wikipedia|navy|naval war}}, and finally a war of mixed strategy, leading to the eventual victory of North-Eastern Grand Besaid by the besieging of the capital of South-Western Grand Besaid, followed by the declaration of surrender by South-Western Grand Besaid. Grand Besaid was once again {{wikipedia|unity|unified}} under the old republic, and economic prosperity soared even higher. All of the former South-Western Grand Besaid was rebuilt and became stronger than it ever was before the war; a declaration of common {{wikipedia|history}} preserved the {{wikipedia|ruins|old ruins}} and {{wikipedia|landmarks}} in the region during the war.

Monarchial Conquests
Known to be the down point in Grand Besaid's history, the Monarchial Conquests were a time when Grand Besaid was at war with its self, and became split into seven main. The first faction was those who supported the first and current republic and wanted it to remain. The second faction was those who supported reviving democracy as in the first civil war. The third faction was those who supported the creation of a new and better republic. The fourth faction was those who supported becoming a theocracy. The fifth faction was those who supported Mussio Temberalguigh as king, and were primarily in the eastern areas of Grand Besaid. The sixth faction was those who supported Oubbousi Buechanhan as king, and were primarily in the southern areas of Grand Besaid. The seventh faction were those who supported Nommaai Nueamaninia as king, and were primarily in the central and central western portions of Grand Besaid. Strangely, throughout the conflict Dynasty remained in power, being able to influence each so much so as to allow him to rule each  and faction.

Together, the six other factions were able to outlaw the practice and support of direct democracy, thus angering the democratic faction and causing them to split into the two republican factions. After rising tensions, King Oubbousi and King Nommaai went to war over the Central and Northern territories of Grand Besaid. King Oubbousi immediately sent a barrage of units up to attack Nommaai's territory. Nommaai, in retaliation, sent his most elite unit, the Royal Guard, assisted by his Royal Marines. The battle lasted a mere seven hours, and concluded with Nommaai being victorious.

Upon hearing the news of his loss, Oubbousi sent his own Royal Guard and Royal Marines into the fray; he managed to barely defeat Nommaai's fatigued forces, preventing them from finishing the they were building on their newly conquered lands. This would prove to be Oubbosi's only victory during the war. Nommaai then launched a grand push, which would eventually end up causing Oubbosi’s defeat, though only after a great deal of resistance. After conquering Oubbosi’s former kingdom, Nommaai appointed him governor over the region, a move that would allow him to have enough trust to make a great compromise with the north. The compromise called for the heavily republican north to join his kingdom in return for peace and a heavily republican legislature and judiciary.

Mussio Temberalguigh realized that this was his best chance at victory over Nommaai, he soon lead a fully-fledged attack against Nommaai’s kingdom, the offensive would last four months and leave him mere miles from Nommaai’s capital. Upon the end of the offensive, Mussio’s kingdom was so weakened and strained that it only took Nommaai a mere week to claim victory, and the entire nation with it; after his victory he proclaimed himself co-ruler of Grand Besaid alongside Dynasty.

Second Republic


After an extremely short co-rule, Nommaai realized that it would be best to restore the republican form of government. However, both Nommaai and Dynasty knew that the original first republic would no longer work, and that a stronger new republic was needed.

Soon after, they called for a constitutional convention and invited all sorts of from past and current officials and  to catholic clergy and small business owners. The major problem was as to how to maintain, life, and under this new system. They were also fearful that a new, more powerful might end up causing the fall of their.

They resolved that they would model their republic after the previous with some changes. First, they wanted to shrink the down to. Second, they wanted to create an efficient, but not single executive system. Finally, they wanted to make the less.

The Second Republic consisted of a High Council, a Ministerial Council, a Senate, a Supreme Court, an Advisory Committee and a Democratic Assembly.

The system was an excellent compromise between the groups of republicans and the democrats. Not only did it leave many of the direct democratic elements in tact, but it also made a much stronger, central republican government. The second republic also set the foundations for the of Grand Besaid.

Technological Empire
After Grand Besaid's banker push and modernization, and along with its second republic, it was in a position for something new. The new government, with the advice of Dynasty, came up with the project idea of turning Grand Besaid into a “Technological Empire”.

What that meant was that Grand Besaid was to become breeding grounds for the development of new and useful technology, importing many of the needed resources from other small countries. This project would allow the technological field to develop well over ten times faster than a country would without such a plan. This plan would be carried out through tech deals.
