Etymology and pronunciation
The word "Kresneo" comes from the High Kresneon word "Keresnio", singular word for the Keresniye people.

The first kingdom that would be descendant of Kresneo would be named as Keresnea, "land of the Keresniye". There are no different names for Kresneo, other than "Kresneu" in Middle and Lower Kresneon, and "Kresno" in the Solnechnyish language.

Kresneo is pronounced (Kress-nee-oh), but can be also pronounced as (Keres-nee-o) or (Keres-nee-u)

History
The settlements in modern-day Kresneo are recent, however, an excavation has discovered traces of Proto-Keresniyan bodies, going all the way back to the year -9, in what would be Southwestern Wanzei. People have tried to discover the places where the Proto-Keresniye and the Old Keresniye peoples were inhabiting before the arrival of the Keresniye in Yanodse, and many clues were discovered, like traces of human bones on the coasts of the Noorden region, which could have proven that the Keresniye were moving from coast to coast. Until reaching Yanodse, the Keresniye population became sedentary.

With the development of modern weapons, agriculture and a government system, Kresneo was born as a tribe in the year 24, however it was commonly annexed under different nations.

Antiquity (24 - 328)
In 24, The settlement of Yanudsun (modern-day Yanodse) was created, making this the oldest city and later capital and important city in Kresneo, and at the same time, the settlement of Vitvetum (Wiswethers) was also formed. The Keresniye started expanding westwards, but staying on that position. Other tribes decided to attack the Keresniye and annex them, but cultural identity still persists to this day.

Early Middle Ages (328 - 1000)
The Keresniye made multiple inventions, or sometimes copied their neighbours. Many cities existed during the Keresniye control on the lands.

Chief Yatannam, leader of the Keresniye at the time, invaded multiple neighbouring tribes, but with the exponential growth of other tribes, the Keresniye region would fall under foreign hands.

High and Late Middle Ages (1000 - 2100)
Kresneo was divided into many provinces due to the constant occupation from other nations, and the Keresniye began to be used to occupation, however this wouldn't take much after the Late Middle Ages.

A tribal raid happened on the Kresneo region, destroying every city except for the then fortified Vitvetum and Yanudsun.

Early and High Modernity and Independence of Kresneo (2100 - 4061)
During this era, Keresniye Nationalism has been rising in the Kresnean region, along with the rising of Nordt in the Noorden region aswell, however, the Keresniye Nationalism won over, and in 4061, Oratios Maennfeti was proclaimed King of the Keresniye, and King of the Serene Kingdom of Kresneo.
