Recent History

  • 1532: Ambitious Gorgossan warlord invades Baetica, thinking them soft and weak. He is partially correct as the king and noble army are easily defeated, but Baetican clerks and peasantry step up and slow invasion to a crawl. Internal politics and threat of Vyntril joining the war force a Gorgossan withdrawal. Baetican clerks and peasants stay in power with tame nobility rubber-stamping their decisions.
  • 1552: Achaen king dies without clear heir. Vyntril and Gorgossa both lay claim to the kingdom. War of Achaen Succession triggers conflicts across Solaris.
  • 1573: Treaty of Federation ends Solaris conflicts. Solus emerges as the dominant power and forms the Federated Kingdoms of Solaris. Vyntril and Gorgossa forced to join at swordpoint. Other nations either allied with Solus or eager for conflict to end. A new age (for humans at least) of exploration, colonization and conquest begins.
  • 1590 to 1610: Golden Age of Human Exploration. Economic boom caused by peace and increased trade channeled into overseas trade, exploration and colonization. Engelhafen freeport founded in Everoc.
  • 1618: Humans "discover" Lindwurm, but do not claim it after objections from other powers.
  • 1653: General Rain unites the Silvoran banner.
  • 1654: The West Fofin Slaughter occurs.
  • 1670: General Rain vanishes after thirty years of rule. Sergal expansion ends.
  • 1718: Vyntril Revolution. A corrupt Oligarchy is replaced with a truer and more open form of democracy.
  • 1747: Osroene achieves independence.
  • 1752: Current day
