The 'Bunreacht de na Daoine' (Constitution of the People) / 'Constitutionem Populus' (Constitution of the People) is revised and new governmental bodies, the Forum d'Entesa and the Forum de la Saviesa (henceforth known as The Forum) are created. Furthermore, the Autonomous Regions become known as Autonomous Region of the Confederation (ARC) and are henceforth overseen by The Forum while still being governed by the country that founded the city.

1408 R.D. > The 'Constitutionem de Fugae' (Constitution of Flight) is passed which establishes the Rule of Law in the Republic of Callaici.

1610 R.D. > Thought lost to time, explorers from Kalti rediscover Tir na Andalucia. Due to an Andalucian prophecy, the people unanimously agree to join the Confederation of Kalti pending the Kaltians fulfill their role as described in the prophecy.

1610 R.D. > The Kaltian Estate passes the 'Oileán Idirghabháil i Tir na Andalucia' (Island Intervention in Tir na Andalucia) which authorizes Kaltian intervention in Andalucian affairs to fulfill the prophecy. The Kaltians swiftly set out to complete their new role and once finished, the Andalucians rejoice and join the Confederation. Furthermore, the Autonomous Regions of Arish in Tir na Andalucia and Taharoa in Kalti are founded.

1610 R.D. > The 'Stuaim an Gorm Domhain' (Accord of the Deep Blue) / 'Tonu o te Rire Puru' (Accord of the Deep Blue) and the 'Bunreacht de na Daoine' (Constitution of the People) / Kaupapa Ture o te Iwi (Constitution of the People) are revised to welcome Tir na Andalucia into the Confederation of Kalti.

The Halls of Reasoning is restructured and the 'Te Mahi Minita o Kaitohutohu' (The Ministry of Advisers) is created as a legislative body alongside the 'Nga Kaiwhakawa e Rima' (The Five Judges).

This is only 50 or 60 percent complete. And I haven't gotten into major details on some of the key events. Also, I may have been slightly bored and had too much time on my hand when I wrote this.

Duh. How do you think your factbook was published?

Very detailed. I could never make a historical timeline like this. :p

True, my Factbook (and this in turn) are the result of too much free time and beer.

Anyways, I've updated the OP with ascension dates for the Ard Rí (High King) and Ard Banríon (High Queen) during the time that Kalti was a Chiefdom. I've also added in a notation on the Veneti peoples in being a native group to one of the islands in the archipelago and how the Kaltians incorporated them into their society through intermarriage over the centuries.

OP updated once again... Some new additions:
- All 'Foraithne' (Decree) that created the states are noted along with the Ard Rí (High King) or Ard Banríon (High Queen) responsible
- The Cyri peoples (formally the Veneti) have been detailed with an explanation given for their inclusion in Kaltian society
- The Tetrarchy Era has been updated... Empress/Emperor and King/Queen have been listed.
- Battles have been given a year along with a notation of which side won (still a work in progress)
- The timeline has been broken into three ages; that of the Aois Daonnachta, that of the Aois an Cróga and that of the Aois Grá. The names of the ages generally correspond to the events that took place and follow the general theme of that time period. Also, it is a wonderful organizational method for me to keep this ever growing time line under control.
- General editing and cleanliness

Updated the original post yet again, now with way more Irish Gaelic included. Outside of elaborating of some details or cleaning it up, I am done with my nation's history from 989 to 1406 / 1610. I still need to figure out what happens between the 1400's / 1600's and the present day (and also the gap between 1005 and 1406).
