History of Kai Fa: The Two Kingdoms (1527 - 1861)

The Northern Kingdom (1527 - 1861)
The Two Kingdoms coexisted in a state of cold war, with both holding claim on the Imperial title. The Northern Kingdom chose a conservative path: ruled by a landlord nobility and weak kings, it remained a centre for arts and traditional culture but lagged behind on economy and science.


The Southern Kingdom (1527 - 1861)
The Southern Kingdom, ruled by warlike noble clans, developed vibrant crafts and merchant classes and became a regional sea power. In 1661, the Won dynasty ended and was succeded by the Chop. In 1848, the ambitious king Chop Suey, set the country on a path of accelerated modernization, with the help of foreign advisors, and reformed the army. The rich iron and coal mines were instrumental in switching the medieval army toward a firearms-based one.

The Reunification War (1860 - 1861)
In 1860, Suey opened hostilities against the Northern Kingdom. His New Army laid siege to Ba Bao, one of the old five cities, on the Er Kwai river.
Despite the strenuous resistance of its defenders, the city fell and was razed to the ground, its defenders vanquished. In spring 1861 the New Army marched toward Tom Yam and once again crushed the Northern Army on its path. The city fell without mich fighting in the early summer and the last king Chow Lan commited suicide in its palace hours before Chop Suey made its entranced and proclaimed the restoration of the Empire.
