Editing Glanainn (section)

==History==
The lands which presently comprise Glanainn have been inhabited since antiquity; first by hunter-gatherers who later developed agriculture in the region several millennia after the first signs of agricultural development in other locations. Prior to the middle of the ninth century, the area had no official governance, with individual settlements taking care of their own affairs. Around the beginning of the ninth century, settlements began forming alliances with other settlements nearby, forming into proto-states. By the middle of the ninth century, most of the territory of present-day Glanainn had become somewhat united into a principality, titling their monarch Prince.

The Principality began with the central government responsible primarily for joint defence only, with most taxes and other measures of government continuing to be locally-organised. Throughout the Principality, however, more and more government functions began to be centralised, and by the 1300s, the first Parliament had been formed from the richest landowners across the country. However, the Principality was not to last, with the dawn of the sixteenth century heralding an Opthelian invasion and occupation that has continued, to some extent, to this day.
