After the downfall of Toor at the end of the 1st CSR, [[Gened]] referred to [[Moroh|Mōroh]] as "the true toor". With the establishment of [[Stogen]] in the 2nd CSR, nomadic kingdoms of Tarnaria began to refer to their kingdoms as [[Toor (political entity)|toors]].

== Historical sources ==
The historical record of Toor is mostly preserved in the writings of early Tarnarian historians [[Ludoh]] and [[Porteek]], as well as through documents preserved in [[Gaskal]], [[Jegin]] and in toorian counterparts in [[Barud]], [[Gantolia]] and [[Yammoe]].
However, a wealth of information that would have been contained in documents, letters, ledgers, works of art has been lost due to a purposeful destruction of said artifacts during [[Mōroh]].

Toor was established at the end of the 18th century of the first revolution by [[Sopoh Dolysoh]] who claimed that him reaching the northernmost point of [[Tarnaria]] demonstrates that he has the vision of the path. Over the course of the next century, the Dolysoh dynasty has expanded Toor, eventually subjugating [[Laeooy Coast]] and the area which today is known as [[Commonground]], while continuing to fight for its integrity against the [[Negy]], the [[Oaleed]] and the [[Empire of Barud|Baruds]] in the south and the tribes from [[Teamatian]] in the west, while integrating many peoples, including those that it fought against.

Over the course of the next century, the Dolysoh dynasty has expanded Toor, placing high importance on the subjugation of the [[Laeooy Coast]] which they viewed as a competing civilizational claim.
The area which today is known as [[Commonground]] for a long time was not under formal toorian rule, but this relationship was formalized after the deposits of tin were found.

The rule of Dolysoh was overtaken by the Tōrmoh dynasty in the beginning of the second revolution, with [[Gole Tōrmoh]] serving as the last gole of Toor. He managed to displace Oaleed to the south of Mantar hill and averted a political crisis that almost saw Gaskal and Deeras secede.
The state of Toor came to an end circa 75 SR when [[Keetoh]] and [[Gened]] started a serf uprising and established Commonground in 72 SR, which eventually led to the secession of [[Gaskal]] and [[Deeras]] and the economic and political downfall of Toor's capital [[Chusoh]].
