Ching Record of Years

The Eighth Army of Exploration was chartered in the last year of the Age of Enthronement in 4606 AR. Desperate to revitalize the nation, General Orphyrea Amandar set sail in the hopes of finding a new land to rule far to the east. Despite being battered by tremendous storms mere months after leaving port, Amanandar weathered the death of Andreus and arrived in northern Geiddnir. After she and her army disembarked at the city of Kamikobu in 4608 AR, they defeated a dozen bandit warlords and took control of the region, renaming the city Hashing, and founding the nation of Ching.
