Age of the Giants -20,000 — -8,000

This marks the period when Giants were the chosen of the Ancient Gods, and they ruled supreme in their tech and strength.

  • Severance

    -7900 BS

    Severance refers to an event that took place in the very last years of the Giant's reign on Tylien, where the Voidborn destroyed the corpse of an Ancient God, killing all the Giants who had the ability to use Telekinesis, pouring fuel on the growing fire that would eventually cause the The Fall of the Giants.

The Wild Era -5,000 — -2,000

This is the period before the Alammar Empire rose to power, where City-States eternally warred with each other over scraps of land and resources.

Reign of the Alammar Empire (BS) > -2,000

This marks the period in which the Alammar Empire united the known world under their banner.

  • Splintering

    0 BS

    The Splintering is when all the provinces of the Alammar Empire rose up in one massive rebellion, ending the reign of the once mighty empire.

The Age of Frost (AS) 50 — 65

The Age of Frost marks when the Armies of Dread set out from the north to conquer the rest of the world. They were ultimately driven back by the combined efforts of the Conclave of Nations, and a little help from Pyrofaltic.

  • Battle of Death's Door

    Frigus 19th, 65 AS

    This battle was the last one of the Age of Frost, where the Armies of Dread were driven back forevermore, and the long forgotten Emissary of Cryotix was killed.

The Classical Era (AS) 65 — 680

This marks the era during which the nations of the world developed, free of any crises.

  • Order Reformation Acts

    201 AS

    During the early 200s, a good century after the Age of Frost, The Order, under urging from Gaial, decided to undergo a reformation of the policies that had been unchanged since the founding of the Order. The reasoning behind this was simple. The previous policies mandated extremely high punishments for the smallest of infractions, and scared away many potential converts. While good for the Order in the long-term, many of the traditionalists inside the Order were outraged by these acts, and accused the Grandmaster of abusing their power and using Gaial as an excuse. The Grandmaster of the Order during this period managed to prevent a full on civil war from breaking out, but many of the more fanatical followers of Gaial decided to split away from the Order and form their own group, called the True Believers of Order. This event helped the decline of the Order post-Age of Frost.

The Blood War (AS) 711 — 713

This marks the brief period in time where Uthan tried to cause multiple attacks on the rest of the world, but was ultimately foiled. As retaliation, most of the world declared war on them.

  • Great Crusade

    707


    This marks when The Holy Imperium of Moneeri launched a series of wars against their neighbors, aiming to take their capital and annex the country as soon as possible. The Great Crusade ended when Moneeri failed to conquer The Yunnaiteddo Federation. Also known as the War of Conquest or the Lightning Wars, the Great Crusade succeeded due to the high military-industrial complex of Moneeri, the military and propaganda that had been built up over centuries, the careful planning and deliberation by Aurland, and sabotage efforts of The Cult of Zelial.

  • Razing of Uthan

    713 AS

    When Coalition forces beat back the last of Uthan's armies and finally marched upon Uthan, they refused to accept any surrender, confident that their garrison and strong walls would protect them from any harm. The generals in charge of this offensive, worried about supplies and any potential armies Uthan could muster while they were busy sieging the city, decided on a drastic measure. They employed new Valdirian cannons to tear down the walls of the once mighty city-state, while simultaneously bombarding the city with bombs and flaming rocks from catapults. This drastic measure allowed Coalition forces to take the city in a record time, while ushering in the age of widespread firearm usage.

Modern Era (AS) > 712

This marks the current period of time in which the world takes place.

  • Order Reclamation Period

    724

    The Order Reclamation period is an ongoing event launched by The Order in order to grow bigger and reclaim all the territories and influence lost during it's decline.
