History
Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Foundation
The Kingdom of Triparia was officially founded on 19 February 1998 by a group of seven citizens.
The original constitution of the kingdom provided for a strongly limited monarchy, working closely with democratic institutions. The monarch at the founding was Shawn. Three of the other founding Citizens formed the first Senate of the kingdom, and the remaining three formed the first High Court.
The constitution provided for the appointment of a citizen as the Tanist, or successor to the Monarch. The first Tanist was Carrie, who together with Shawn performed the greater part of the work in development of a unique language, Triparic, for the use of the kingdom.
The kingdom's territory originally encompassed only Allegheny County.
During Shawn's reign, the kingdom established diplomatic ties with a number of other micronations, leading to cultural exchanges and a number of friendships around the world, some of which have lasted nearly two decades. Shawn's formal coronation ceremony (held some time after the Kingdom's constitution was actually ratified) was attended by dignitaries from two other micronations.
Transition
In 2000, after controversies which followed Shawn's marriage to his first wife, the two of them and Alan of Grønbjerg left the kingdom, re-founding the Triselene Imperium, with Shawn as its new Emperor. The Imperium was reconstituted as Septempontia in 2004.
After the reigns of several other Triparian monarchs, the kingdom's activity came to a virtual halt as the few remaining citizens ceased to participate in micronational activities together, relationships ended, and so forth.
Part of Imperial territory and culture
The last monarch formally declared the Kingdom defunct and gave the Empire permission to use the name for the territorial subdivision of the Empire which included the kingdom's former territory, and for the Triparic language to be part of Septempontian culture.
Restoration and federation
In 2010, during an Imperial parliament, the Emperor and the last former monarch agreed that Shawn should reclaim the throne of the Kingdom, and that the Empire would be reorganized as a federation, with Triparia as one of its member states and the monarch of Triparia to be ruler of the Empire as well. When this transpired, the entire territory allocated to the Imperial subdivision then known as "Triparia" became part of the kingdom.
Name
The name of Triparia is a reference to the Three Rivers of Pittsburgh, from the prefix tri-, "three", and the Latin riparius, one who dwells by the bank of a river, or ripa, the bank itself.
