Akranon

The Akranon was a university in Nekranan, on the island-state of Iykmus, founded in 630:76 by Tarbiin-Sigtan. It was the second-oldest university in the world until the Riyanjandis was closed in 854, after which it became the oldest. It is also considered the first of the Classical Universities and served as the intellectual centre of the Kadeean Empire. The Akranon is often compared (and contrasted) with the Akraanu, and the two are generally considered to be the most important and influential academic institutions of the ancient world.

History
The Akranon was opened in Nekranan on the Kadeean island of Iykmus in 630:76 by Tarbiin-Sigtan, a wealthy construction tycoon and admirer of philosophy. It was originally called the Enba’baa-Akra-Gron, meaning the “building of considering all” in Kadeean; the word gron was chosen to convey a dual meaning of open-mindedness and criticism. It was known as the Akranon by the end of the 6th century.

During the late 6th century plague, the Akranon closed its doors to try to stop the spread of the disease. Attendees were given the choice to either stay inside for the duration of the quarantine or leave.

Jrega
The early Jregan movement was founded at the Akranon in the latter half of the 6th Century.
