Beginnings
The ruling house of the dynasty traces its history back to the Murna Dynasty, when Lein Tegar berInsan was appointed to be the hereditary prefect of a county-sized fief near Lake Ernugs, one of the sources of the Atgama River. By the late Hara Dynasty, which succeeded the Muma, the Lein had become one of the most powerful nobles within the realm. In 156 Hara, Lein Durun berHikas, the Great Progenitor of the Dynasty, led a revolt against the Hara over disputes regarding tribute, and after a 9 year war succeeded in supplanting the Hara and establishing his own regime.

The Lein Dynasty was the first dynasty, ruling over the Tarakasane, to fully reform and centralise its government. This move towards centralisation began from the very founding of the dynasty; Lein Durun's successful revolt had convinced him of the dangers in giving power and fiefs. While the feudal system of bestowments continued throughout the dynasty, it was conceived of more as an honours system than one giving actual power (though there were some important exceptions).
