He then became the leader of Mamkoon, overthrowing Prince Kol and changing his tarnarian name to the [[Jabi]] Anashary. Ruling the country for an extremely long period of 65 years, he made the Kingdom of Mamkoon into the second most influential country after [[Yammoe]], defining the landscape of northern politics for decades to come.

He died in his eighties, leaving the country to his son, [[Gole Anashary II]]. King Anashary's death marked the beginning of Mamkoon's decline, as well as the decline of Yammoe's influence in the north of the [[Continent]].

His family was from [[Tonaran]]. They were not wealthy, but native to Tonaran and well regarded. An eager young man, Deiecut was able to secure a position as a soldier in the Tonaran army.

His father worked as a serviceman in one of the estates and was caught stealing. This became widely known primarily due to the fact that the thief was able to break out from the prison, in which he was held before what would probably have been a public beating. This affair brought shame upon the family of Nornan. Deiecut lost his position in the army and was called "son of thief" by many of the locals. This prompted him to flee Tonaran.

He came to [[Ernele]] and took part in several local skirmishes as a swordsman, but, lacking his family's network, did not seem to be getting far in his military career.

The success of the Xornerian campaign had strengthened Deiecut's influence among Prince Kol's generals. They also saw Deiecut as a more predictable figure, as opposed to the erratic and fickle style of Prince Kol.

Emboldened by his standing among the military and possibly by support from Puhntuss, Deiecut dethroned Prince Kol during a ceremony which Prince Kol thought was a celebration of the foundation of Mamkoon. Instead, his mission was announced to had been complete, as he did lead his people to the Mamkoon, and he was instead given an honorary and strictly religious role, with Deiecut taking the Kareden name of Prince Anashary.

Prince Kol tried to regain power, but was betrayed by his generals and executed by Anashary. Anashary then changed his title from Prince to King, therefore assuming absolute power.

Gole Anashary ruled Mamkoon for 65 years. Due to the theology, there was little reason to continue campaigning, although the fight for the island of [[Laur]] with Leykarya continued throughout his reign. This long stretch of peace allowed for the growth of economic prosperity. He was also able to appeal to the different peoples of his country, and, although the Kareden were treated as the real masters of the land, Anashary was able to tone down national conflicts, especially in the former Xornerian, by allowing free movement within Mamkoon, which, at least at the time, created opportunities for many.
He began losing grip on power by the end of his reign and struggled to strengthen the position of his eldest son, [[King Anashary II]], who was highly unpopular with the military due to a number of failed campaigns against Darda. Eventually, he used the support of Yammoe once more. After his death, Yammoe turned Mamkoon into its puppet state which it ruled for the next 30 years, until withdrawing its support, mainly due to the invasions from Loodon and Leykarya.

Gole Anashary was a popular leader, primarily due to the fame he had garnered with his military campaigns, as well as the Kingdom of Mamkoon becoming the heart of the light green stron of [[Xaewoon]] religion, which made Anashary not only an important political figure, but also head of the light green stron of Xaewoon. His name became known throughout the whole of Tarnaria.
His founding of the Kingdom of Mamkoon also made him enemies, as the light green stron is prone to alternative readings of where the real Mamkoon lies. Later, the Overpol Expanse effectively tried to become the new homeland and invaded the Kingdom of Mamkoon.
