History
Lycia's founding was started by Greek settlers moving from the main land and Ionia, mostly due to their home lands disagreeing with their political beliefs. After a couple generations the region adopted their own Hellenic culture and in May 2022, the city state of Lycia was born. Near by coastal island's such as Rhodes and the Cyclades were also included into the state's region as large portions of each island were controlled by Lycian officials and higher class men. Additionally, Lycia had gone through multitude of developmental phases and even a couple of population declines due events such as the Romanian raids, Seljuk raids, and Mississippian raids. These events are recalled as the raids of Halikarnassos since the raids took place on the coastal town within the same span of 2 years. Furthermore, the most recent event was the land dispute between Lycia and Minoa over a rock in the Aegean that Lycia controls.
