Foundation

While HIM Thomas Marios I was researching micronations, on 18 July 2019 he declared de facto independence for Ovrestlia crowning himself as King. This, however, was not recognized by many. After two months, he resigned and organized a franchise, called the Throne Suffrage. It was never completed.

On 2 October 2019, after discussing with the royal family of Ovrestlia, they declared de jure independence and crowned Vasiliki I Empress. On 10 November 2019, she was diagnosed with dementia, and her son, George was declared regent. He resigned ten days later, and she resigned thirteen days after. Vasiliki II was crowned Empress, but later resigned on 8 December.

Thomas Marios the I have crowned Emperor and led the country until 21 April 2020 when he suddenly left Ovrestlia. A triarchy was formed with Aggelos I of Imvrassia being the senior Emperor, and Alcibiades I of the Imperium Aquilae and John I of Baustralia being the junior Emperors.

Two days later, Thomas Marios I returned to his throne and reformed the Empire into a diarchy with himself and Alcibiades I as Emperors. As of 6 May 2020, it became a constituent state of the Empire of Lysimachia.
