Etymology
The name Khobeh comes from the historical city Ŋkrɔ́bɛ̀ (modern-day Kashinkhor), meaning "central city" in Middle Bosso (from the words "ŋkrɔ́" (city; village) and "bɛ̀" (middle)), which became Khɔ́bɛ̀ in modern Nyamu.

Khobeh Confederation
Shortly after the collapse of the Bosso Empire in 2327 CY, four kingdoms arose from its former provinces, each of which were named after the dynasties of their ruling chiefs; the former province Alanku became Bosso-Kafue, the former province Ilafu became Bosso-Luakor, the former province Odo became Bosso-Muadu, the former province Eshinku became Bosso-Afa. The rulers of these four kingdoms each claimed to be the de jure successors of the Empire (hence the kingdoms' names starting with "Bosso"), and sought to reunite the former Bosso territories under their dynasty. Two other kingdoms to the north - the Hlong kingdom of Mongklor and the kingdom of Jaaranku - were also founded, but did not claim Bosso succession. Contention between the four Bosso kingdoms sparked a 5-year war, eventually ending in a stalemate.
After the war officially ended, the four kings involved appeared at the historic city of Khobeh (modern-day Kashinkhor) in 2535 CY to sign the Kàri-Jąkhą treaty, unifying the four nations as the Khobeh Confederation. The Confederation was successful until the same power struggles arose again, causing civil war between the regions and the secession of Bosso-Afa from the Confederation in 2677 CY. Warrior Bų̄̀lą̀ Akpàlamùą̀ Kàṣi overthrew the king of the Kafue region with the help of several other clan leaders, eventually conquering the remaining Confederation and crowning himself king of a centralized Khobeh in 2727 CY.
