Can anyone point me to successful attempts at Eugenics in any historical society?
Has a kingdom of men ever managed to wipe an undesirable characteristic from the earth using social order?

only in contained environments on a very small scale, such as a couple using punnett squares to determine physical traits of their offspring.
but never has there been a macro-level attempt at wiping out genetic traits, mainly because it'd be a titanic effort to outright control who everyone in a region/nation is having sex with. You could argue Nazi Germany gave it their best shot, but even then people were still going to fuck whoever despite the image of the ideal Aryan that was encouraged in propaganda.

THE THIRD REICH IMPLEMENTED ARISTOGENICS, NOT EUGENICS.

Back when eugenics was popular in the US, the goal wasn't really to "wipe out" any particular trait, but rather simply reduce and contain the growth of certain populations that were considered undesirable. This was usually targeted towards people who suffered from hereditary diseases. Besides that many states had sterilization programs for criminals. In some cases a convicted felon could be released from prison early if they agreed to be sterilized. In other cases, sterilization was simply compulsory for certain types of crimes, especially sex-related crimes like rape or pedophilia.

NO.
AS THE VERY NAMES DENOTE, ARISTOGENICS, AND EUGENICS, ARE TWO DIFFERENT, AND MUTUALLY DISTINCT, SCIENCES.

Ashkenazi Jews. "Antisemitic" policies of European countries had an unintended eugenic effect on the Jews by transforming them from Arab or Gypsie-tier barbarians into one of the most intelligent ethnic groups in the world.

Singapore had a successful eugenics program. They paid all women with high levels of education (a reasonable proxy for intelligence) to have children. Partly due to this, Singapore went from 3rd world to 1st world in a single generations.

This policy was quickly abandoned because it was extremely unpopular. Considering how short-lived was Singapore's eugenics program it will be wrong to claim that Singapore became such a successful country because of it.
