From it's desertic country side to it's vast inland forests, Kamasta is a strange country wich is inhabited by once nomadic tribes. It's geography ressembles North African countries. It's people too. Their bodies are tanned due to generations under the sun.
Around the year 800 AD, these tribes became sedimentary and began to work hand in hand. By 1000 AD, after successful doplomatic initiatives, these hundreds of tribes became one unified nation. However, conflicts soon broke out as to who should govern this newly formed country. Alliances were made and agreements were signed. War soon led the way as this peaceful land was turned into a slaughterhouse, neighbors killing neighbors, friends killing friends. This "civil war" last for more than three decades before a real change would happen.
In 1032 AD, a warrior named Abu Al-Kamasta rose to power among his father's army. That same year, his father died, leaving him at the head of a stong and powerful army. Al-Kamasta was an apt strategist but also a keen politician. He was able to win the allegiance of many small factions who he then took thier armies and incorporated them into his own, ever growing legions. By 1039 AD, he had won 9 victories on the field and had besieged sucessfuly 14 cities. He had lost only one battle. In 1041 AD, he defeated the combined armies of Muhammad Al-Katawoui and Abdallah Jazirra-Rastafa, two major leaders. They were both caught and beheaded.
Now, he had no more major ennemies and sought to reunify his countrymen. He devised a scheme to unite his people to a same cause without them knowing. He brided mercenaries to attack villages on the countryside. This was then used by Al-Kamasta has a threat by bordering countries. In a matter of two years, no more factions were waging war. They were all behind Al-Kamasta. With the civil wars finished, he still had to walk a dangerous road of sovereignty. With still many ennemies, he had to prove his people and army that he was a true leader.
In 1044 AD, with an army of 100,000, he invaded his neighboring country of Lamagypt and within a year, annexed it. He gained an even better reputation during this Lamagyptian campaign when he defeated an ennemy force of 40,000 with a small army of 10,000. Returning to his capital as a champion, he decided to crown himself Sultan of his lands in 1047 AD. The next week, he died of unknown causes. To honor him, his people changed his name to Kamasta ("al" meaning "son of") as they believed he had come out of his father's shadow. A new Sultan was named and this country finally received a name; Kamasta. For a full 1000 years, further Kamastian Sultans expanded their borders as their country was fully unified.
Now, in modern times, Kamasta is a nation that is still mistifying people with their strange customs and way of life. The curant Sultan, Ahmed Bukabar-Saladi is working at the improvement of his country and his people. He his open to the world and wishes to receive diplomats from all over the world.
