Ancient Gordica
Gordica's islands have been inhabited since the 5th century, first by the Indigenous Gordicans. Though they were initially governed differently and included different cultures, the three islands of Keshan, Shabai, and Yunshui were unified in the late 380s as what is now known as "First Gordica". "Second Gordica" came about in the 5th century when Bohamo, Chiaga, and Mokoru became part of the newly formed country.

First Gordica and Second Gordica were both kingdoms. Upon the foundation of Second Gordica, a royal court was established in the ancient city of Chugong, Yunshui. The first ever monarch of Gordica, King Song Han Len Soi (398–445) of Saiboha origin. He briefly ruled from 440 to 445 before being slain by his son, Song Den Chon Fai (419–446) ruled from 445 to 446 before being executed for "royal crimes". Under their leadership, Gordica was politically unstable. Citizens were separated into five groups: the first level (nobility), second level, third level , fourth level , and fifth level. Second- and third-level citizens enjoyed lives of luxury and only socialized with each other, never donating to fourth- or fifth-level citizens financially. Poorer Gordicans were mostly farmers and construction workers, while the rich sold high-priced sculptures and other works of art. Most of the country's population lived in poverty, and the Gordican economy relied heavily on international trade, which was itself affected by weak ties to other Asian regions.

The third king was Chon Fai's brother, Song Den Soi (421–479), who ruled from 446 to 479. Unlike his predecessors, Pan Soi sought to correct sociopolitical issues facing the people of Gordica. While in power, he decreased his own power and thus decreased the power of future rulers. He took note of the abundant natural resources in the kingdom—particularly those of Yunshui and Bohamo—and thought commoners new ways to use these resources. While many revered Pan Soi for his contributions to the Kingdom of Gordica, Many members of the Gordican royal family despised him for encouraging individuality, preaching acceptance, and depowering the government. Upon his death in 479, leadership of the country shifted every few years. Histover the course of the next 500 years. Historians call this the "Death Period" because royals were constantly being killed, often by each other, to steal the throne. The in-fighting concluded in 996 with the Song Massacre, when the entire government was overthrown and the royal Song family as a whole was killed in a mass murder. The last person linked to the Song family, Chen Som Hai Hi, became the first Queen of Gordica.
