The 19th century saw a decline of Fyor's wealth, and it became relatively poor, though towards the end of the century the economy started to grow again, there was still a great difference from before. Resentment towards the 'rulers' grew and there were calls to replace the current system of governance.
===Modern history===
In 1901 the ruler monarchical-type system of governance was abolished, though intended to be replaced with a republic instead a dictatorship followed, nevertheless Fyor went a name change from Kingdom to the 'Republic of Fyor'. With Elijah Makan taking control of Fyor and unleashing a brutal and authoritarian system of governance. He focused attention on Explorers Island, which had been functioning technically as a country since it's establishment in 1783. In 1910 the Fyoric army invaded Explorers Island, it was placed under lockdown by the army and residents could not leave their homes, in hope of forcing them to come out for food and water. However this plan backfired as there were inadequate supplies for the Fyoric army, who originally expected the invasion to only last for at the maximum 10 hours. The army was forced to go back to bases and ships for supplies, and the Explorers were able to mobilise and defend the island. Fighting ensued, but the Fyoric army easily overcame the Explorers and the island was put under Fyoric control and declared part of Fyor.

<br>
Fyor has sovereignty over 2 territories, [[Kiraso]] and [[Explorers Island]], both have varying levels of autonomy but have separate cultures and languages to those of Fyor. Kiraso has full control over everything apart from defence and foreign policy, to which Fyor controls. Explorers Island has
The majority of the inhabitants of Kiraso are [[Kirasan]] and speak [[Kiras]], Kirasans are people of mixed Fyoric and Fyoric Explorer descent. Many Fyoric people can understand Kiras and vice-versa, but when a Fyoric person and a Kirasan person are having a conversation they will usually converse in their native languages as they can understand each other, but usually find it hard to talk in the other person's language. Kiraso is much more liberal than Fyor, and many
The majority of the inhabitants of Explorers Island are [[Fyoric Explorers]] and speak [[Jigoton]]. Fyoric Explorers are people who are descendants of the explorers that came to Fyor from Tritonia hundreds of years ago. Fyor has continuously tried to "modernise" Explorers Island, however the international community have instead called it a "Fyorise". Noting the many occasions where the Fyoric army has come to Explorers Island to remove Jigoton signs and pro independence posters
==Politics==
For nearly all of its existence Fyor was a monarchy, with it being ruled by descendants of the very first inhabitants of Fyor, though this caused confusion as to who exactly this was and what qualified as descendance. In 1901 this system was abolished
[[Kiraso]] is self-governing, and its laws are much more liberal and progressive in comparison to Fyor. [[Explorers Island]] has previously been self-governing, but this was abolished in 1982, leaving the territory with limited autonomy. In 2022 Isac Kapaj removed any autonomy the territory had and gave Fyor absolute control over it. Laws passed in Fyor are not enacted in Explorers Island unless they are passed under a "special island act", this was referred to as the "Explorers Island act" before it was renamed due to the previous name implying it was separate from Fyor.

==Sports==
The most popular sport in Fyor is [[football]], the [[Fyor national football team|national team]] has had some success internationally, they competed at the [[2020 FANA World Cup]] which was also their debut in the competition. In the group stage they came last in their group with 2 points, drawing against [[Torlova]] (0-0) and [[Wedse]] (4-4) while losing to [[Freyhurst]] (1-2). The Fyoric Football League is popular in the country, the most successful team is [[Kailo Urbo FC|Kailo Urbo]] who have won 24 league titles.
Other popular sports include [[basketball]], [[rugby]], [[ice hockey]] and [[snowboarding]]. The traditional sport of [[Kurufalolaŭmont]] is popular, it involves running down a hill and throwing targets at people to make them fall or slow them down, the first person to finish wins. The sport is only played on gentle slopes with no rocks etc to prevent accidents, and in winter it is only played on hills with soft and thick snow. Despite these general precautions it is still responsible for the majority of sport related injuries in Fyor. While now only official games use the original targets that cause minor injury and bleeding, up until 1998 it was possible for anyone to buy the 'dolorapunktoj' before it was banned for sale completely. Now the hard, original targets can only be used and sourced if an official game is being organised and they must be destroyed afterwards, though many are taken from games and used to play informal games with others and the law is not that well enforced. There have been numerous incidents where informal games of the sport have led to severe injuries and deaths.
