The Eight Feudal Clans
Since antiquity, there were eight clans in Modern Day Danibitia. These clans still play an important role, shaping the state borders. The clans are, in no order: Daniland, Abitia, Matildia, Reynolds, Palmaland, Dragonreaches, Fairbank and Werden. These eight clans were in a state of war until 1453, when the Eight Clans Truce was signed, promising peace among the clans by uniting them into one federated kingdom

Kingdom of Danibitia
In 1453, King Arthur III of Daniland declared peace among the eight feudal clans after 300 years of war. A union was created within Daniland and the 7 other clans, to form a united kingdom under the rule of the most powerful Daniland clan, with the other clans as states. This was fulfilled and the Kingdom of Danibitia is formed. In 1478, King Edward VI of Danibitia announced the "Peace Plan" which involved everlasting peace with neighboring kingdoms and clans. The plan also involves cutting down the military budget for helping and fulfilling the needs of citizens. This has been a success till today, where there are virtually no wars or skirmishes, both international and domestic in Danibatia
