In -4045, the Vilani people founded the Igsiirdi (Vilani > "Central Ruling Council"), and declared the Ziru Sirka (Vilani > "Grand Empire of Stars"). The Vilani calendar starts on this date.

The Igsiirdi coordinated the activities of the three Shangarim (Vilani > literally meaning "Triumvirate" or "Tripartite Alliance", but figuratively meaning "Guilds"). Initially the Igsiirdi was simply the means by which the Shangarim debated matters of common interest. With the start of the Consolidation Wars, the Igsiirdi was transformed into the central governing body of Vland and the Ziru Sirka. In practice it remained the coordinating body of the Shangarim, as all the governmental functions were carried out by the Shangarim within their territories. One of the most vital functions of the Igsiirdi was in ensuring that each part of the Shangarim and their products were represented within all the territories of the Ziru Sirka.
