Rise of Handora
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In the first six centuries following The Great Exodus, the lands of Handora were mainly inhabited by scattered Alibaas tribes and small Human feudal states. As the people of Laa Buillo (the early United Provinces) were mostly concerned about establishing a fully functioning nation from scratch, they stayed on their own continent and ignored Handora.
However, by around 600 AE, they had fully expanded across their continent, and finally turned their sights on the Handoran continent, setting forth to add it to its own territory. The people of the land fought back, but were often overwhelmed by the invading forces' sheer numbers. However, some of the Handoran feudal states joined forces in order to combat the invading army, and were able to gain an upper hand, also aided by their knowledge of the area.
The warring waged on for a few years until the invading army was finally forced to fully withdraw from the continent in 607. While the fighting was now over, the groups which had banded together stayed together, having seen the effectiveness of their combined armies, and established a centralized government by 608, declaring itself as the Great Handoran Empire.
Notes
- The final major battle of the war was chronicled in the quest Dreams of the Fallen.
