The Salisfordian [[Old Kingdom (Salisford)|Old Kingdom]] was founded in 546 AD, when Dux Tiberias Valencius declared himself the King of Salisford. This Kingdom would survive until 1790, when a 8-year long popular revolt would force the Kingdom to capitulate and form the [[Salisfordian Republic]]. The Republic would be plagued with bureaucratic inflexibility, corruption, and banditry. The Republic would last until 1800, when a rural Salisfordian aristocrat would soundly beat the Republic in the [[Salisfordian Counter-Revolution]]. This aristocrat would invite the exiled [[House of Valenza]] to return and create a new Salisfordian Kingdom. This [[New Kingdom (Salisford)|new kingdom]] would become the current government of Salisford. In 1969, after the assassination of the popular [[Maria III of Salisford|Maria III]] and her immediate family, Salisford would fall into [[Salisfordian Chaos|chaos]] and [[Salisfordian Civil War|civil war]]. Remaining military forces and political paramilitaries would battle until 1974, when a monarchist faction led by King [[Carlo III of Salisford|Carlo III]] would defeat remaining opposition and reimpose the authority of the Salisfordian crown.

The Rubicon War (Creeperian: Guerra del Rubicón; Salisfordian: Guerra del Rubicone) was a major war in Sur which occurred in two phases between 1961 and 1976. The war was fought between Creeperopolis and Salisford over a territorial dispute along the Rubicon River, which marked the border between the two nations. Despite the Salisfordian military victory in the first phase and the Creeperian military victory in the second phase, the war ended in a diplomatic stalemate as neither Salisford nor Creeperopolis made any significant gains as a result of the conflict.

In 1936 during the Creeperian Civil War, the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council (Imperial Council) made a secret agreement with the Salisfordian government to partition the nation of Castilliano in an effort to end a brief conflict being fought between Castilliano and Salisford and to get the Salisfordians to send volunteers to help the Imperial Council against the National Council for Peace and Order (National Council). Despite the agreement, after the war ended in 1949 and Castilliano was annexed by Creeperopolis, the Creeperian government did not allow Salisford to take territory from Castilliano as was promised due to Creeperopolis making a separate agreement with Castilliano ensuring their protection. In 1952, Salisfordian First Minister Sandro Neri pressed Creeperopolis to fulfill the agreement and cede the promised territory to Salisford, however, the Creeperian government refused citing all of Castilliano as "an integral part of Creeperopolis."
