Independence and renaming
On September 25, 2022, the Kingdom of Kanindé was proclaimed by King Felipe I. He opted for a constitutional monarchy because in his vision at first, a monarch in charge of situations would be much easier to deal with crises that could affect the nation. Micronation has always had a physical territory that was in the possessions of Felipe I's family and some other lands that are his. On January 27, after some macronational disagreements, the Kingdom was relocated to another location and the capital Canindé D.C lost contact, forcing the creation of a new state the State of Liberty (Kanindé) and its capital Ruthville With the development of the project, the King decided to carry out a major renovation and rename it from Kingdom to Empire, changing the symbols, flags and other names.

On August 27, 2023, Kanindé underwent restructuring, putting an end to the Kingdom and bringing about the Empire. Initially it was supposed to be a visual change to make Kanindé have its own unique visual identity.
On January 20, Emperor Felipe I, enraged by a political crisis caused by members of the prime minister's office locally and insinuating a coup against the Emperor to depose him. Felipe had the the idea at first to transition the micronation from a monarchy to a republic, but, after the elections that placed the monarch as leader, in this case "president" of the committee, it was decided internally that it was unfeasible and that a remodeling of the monarchy would take place to prevent the micronation became a one man nation.
