History of the World

The Second Era
The Second Era was an incredibly long era, lasting over 1600 years. It contains thousands of heroes, villains, wars, and empires.

The Elven Aurmori Empire was founded in this era, and rapidly grew in size, enslaving Men. Around 1504, the Aurmori launched an invasion of the Sunset Lands and conquered the squabbling petty kingdoms. Turning east, the Golden Elves invaded Snowrise, but the fierce winters forced their invasion to come to a standstill. The Men of the Sunset Lands rose in rebellion, led by General Apelduun Dolmen, threw out the Elven invaders. With a truce negotiated with the Icefolk, the Elves launched a fleet to conquer the Sunset Lands once more. Dolmen embarked to meet the fleet with a single ship; common legends states Dolmen using the blessings of the Divine Faith to split a dragon heart to destroy the Elven fleet. The military might of the Aurmori was obliterated, and Snowrise took the opportunity to sack the lands of the elves and dismantle their empire.

The Third Era
The Third Era began with the destruction of Aurmori Empire and is essentially medieval times. Knights, kings, and princesses were found throughout Westguard. Two great empires, the Sunset Empire and the Krezpan Empire, both rose and fell. The era would end after 1400 years following the discovery of gunpowder.

The Fourth Era
The era of gunpowder and the era of revolution. The common people, emboldened by revolutionary ideas, began to turn against the monarchies and aristocracies that ruled them.

The Fifth Era
The era of industrialization. It began with the opening of the first Ipparaldean factories, and ended with the weaponized splitting of dragon hearts onto the fanatical Empire of the East (Snowrise), which had attempted to conquer the whole world and exterminate all other races, especially elven.

The Sixth Era
With the war having united the planet, a new world government made up of all different governments came together and began space travel.

The Seventh Era
It began with the world's first contact with alien species. Alien technology and ideas began to flood Westguard as it joined the galatic community.
