After the Wolntarean people fell to the Chealain Empire in 394, the Bain&#8217;nard tribes formed a temporary alliance to protect their borders. As predicted, Cheala launched a campaign against the tribes in 415 and though Bain&#8217;nard proved a hard people to conquer, over 22 years the war was slowly forcing the tribes deeper into their homeland. Then in 437 a dispute of succession of the Chealain Throne caused the Empire to call a pause in the war. It never resumed. However, the land that Cheala took during the war never returned to Bain&#8217;nard\u2019s control and today comprise a good portion of Innarea and Wolntare lands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the 20 Year Plains War and the Tribal Alliance, Bain&#8217;nard has been a more cohesive collection of tribes. For the next 200 years, Bain&#8217;nard\u2019s people lived in relative peace with only the occasional disputes with the halflings and gnome kingdoms to the south. Then, the nation gained some new neighbors in 612 when Baern was established. Despite initial fears, Baern proved to be a friendly enough neighbor. By 637 strong trading and political ties had been formed between the two nations.&nbsp;In 730, the expanding nation of Bakianna reached Bain&#8217;nard\u2019s borders. The tribes feared war with Bakianna might start, but this never happened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 750, Bain&#8217;nard joined into an alliance with the Wolntarean people to win them their freedom from Bakianna and four years later Wolntare gained just that. Bakianna grew hostile towards Bain&#8217;nard for their actions in this war. However, since 960, Bain&#8217;nard no longer shares a border with Bakianna.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much of the rest of Bain&#8217;nard\u2019s history from 750 has been one of relative peace. With Innerea\u2019s current march on the Otakai Pass, the bordering nation has sent raids into Bain&#8217;nard to seize some land. From this, Bain&#8217;nard has been on high alert towards more potential attacks and raids with the tribes most heavily effected calling for a counterattack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
