History
Early Bomakwodor
Before the founding of the kingdom, the southeastern Nkungu area was predominantly populated by Dzuma people in city-states scattered throughout the area. Most of these Dzuma city-states were eventually invaded and conquered by the Bosso Empire under Mbɔ̀lų̀ Akpàlą̀kɔwu II. The southeastern region remained entirely under Bosso rule until the secession of Ekpenku in 2107 CY. After the collapse of Ekpenku, the old city-states began to reemerge and eventually form small confederations. Bomakwodor then was the largest of four states within a small confederation on the coast of eastern Nkungu. During the 33rd century CY, the legendary chief of the Bomakwodor city-state, Jaa Abodaleh Odzundileh, with his army – exonymously called the Okemforleh-nleh – had formed a large network of city-states from which he extorted tribute, therefore forming a large informal tribute empire.
Jaa Abodaleh's tribute empire, however, came to an end a decade later during the Bomakwodor Raid in 3352, wherein twelve of the many city-states subjugated under Jaa Abodaleh banded together to assassinate him and pillage Bomakwodor. Days after the raid, the chiefs of these city-states all congregated in Ndzoh, deciding to unite as one constitutional elective kingdom under the name Deyinakor. Jaa Karakoroh Londekpor of Mbeteh was elected amongst themselves as the first king.

Coup of 4606
After over a thousand years of Deyinakor's existence as a nation, Deyinakor's leadership was overthrown by the Dzuma nationalist Gongor Eke movement in 4606 CY led by Bayin Kabo. Upon previous leader Jaa Afunyanin Ngomban's forced exile, Bayin Kabo declared that the nation would be officially called Bomakwodor in honor of Jaa Abodaleh, an idol figure within the Gongor Eke.
