The Sibarian Empire was formed sometime around 1,000 BCE and had begun expanding shortly after the founding of the empire. It suffered with long series of internal conflicts, conspiracies and civil wars from the late second century BC onward, while greatly extending its power beyond the Sibarian peninsula, all the way out towards Xianuan. There are also traces of Sibarian settlement in Troesil and Vasil. The 200 years that began with Emperor Vaskil's rule is traditionally regarded as the "Great Expansion". During this period, the cohesion of the empire was furthered by a degree of social stability and economic prosperity that Sibaria had never before experienced. Uprisings in the empire were infrequent, but put down "mercilessly and swiftly" when they occurred. The sixty years of Sibarian–Xian wars in the second half of the 1st century and the first half of the 2nd century were exceptional in their duration and violence.
