Before the region was a unified nation (Before c. 10 BCMB), it was a cluster of bickering tribal chiefdoms. Most notable of the tribes were the Fustunawa, Michreobi, and Cattelonian tribes. They would frequently quarrel and soon the leader of the Fustunawa, Chief Moladi, passed a decree to force all Fustunawan males under the age of 30 must fight in his new army. He used the army created, which now consisted of 4,000 men, to succesfully conquer the Micherobi Tribe.
