A group of secessionists, led by a person named [[Mols Gordoh]], established Gordohse in the beginning of the 19th [[CFR]]. Their goal was to grow it into a powerful city state and become independent. Most of them were from [[Estonoh]], the capital of Asdoh. In order to evade the oversight of the army and tax collectors, they built the settlement far from roads and far from water sources. Instead, a complex system of water delivery was established, including a secretly built network of routes from Gordohse to Maird. This was accomplished by stealing stones from the road between Estonoh and [[Ernele]], which led to [[Red road thief|wild speculation]] in Estonoh.

Gordohse was promoted as an independent city state, with its own royalty. Gordohs established their own traditional court, with all the proper ranks. At some point the royal oracle predicted that the new kingdom would prosper in the east. [[Davi Gordoh]] was the leader of the settlement at that time, and he led his people to the Quoon River, abandoning Gordohse.
The ruins of the settlement would later be used by [[Emperor Hun]] as a military camp during the [[Empire_of_Barud#First_Asdoh_campaign|first Asdoh campaign]].
As the area become even more arid, turning into what today is known as the Moleeq desert, the ruins of Gordohse were used by travelers as a mid point when crossing the desert. By the middle of the second revolution travelers through Moleeq reported that they could no longer find the ruins, possibly due to them finally succumbing to the elements.
When [[Maksag Oordar]] set up the infamous [[Delavire-Gonne slave trade corridor]], he ordered a settlement built at the location of Gordohse, to serve as mid point for the traders. The settlement was named Gonne, which is "half" in [[Bukk]].
