This timeline could change later as I work out details and make adjustments, but for now it should help clarify a lot of events in Harkovast background and the order in which they occurred. Anything on here may be changed in the future, in case I notice that I made a mistake or forgot something (or invent something else later!)
-1500: (Approximate date) Prehistoric races (including the Vetalids and
Inquisitors) suffer a rapid decline, modern races begin rising to dominance.
-105: The White Kingdom is founded by the first White Empress.
-82: Tolpish conquer the Golta.
0: The Lel Calendar begins
30: Darsai and Tolpish war begins
35: Golta Revolution
36: Tolpish Exodus begins, Ending war with Darsai
85: Zha-Tsung creates the philosophy of the Tsung-Dao
110: War between Panvos Kingdom and Ivos Republic, barbarian peoples around them take advantage of this and begin to seize territory
140: Nymus Republic founded
160: Ivos Republic, on the verge of defeating the Panvos, merge with the Panvos to create the Ivos Empire, and they drive the barbarian peoples around them back
250: The Warrior King is born in the Al-Saigal Sultanate.
255: Knarl Empire expands, Tolpish join the Empire
257: The Knarl Empire conquers the Bardabor
270: Resadeo the Mariner becomes crown Prince of Cingordo, immediately begins putting in place radical reforms. He uses harsh methods to deal with those who oppose his liberal agenda.
272: Resadeo the Mariner attempts to unify the Eslum while increasing repression in Cingordo, beginning the Reign of Suffering. New Thinkers who had previously supported his rise begin to publically denounce him, as does the church.
274: The minor Eslum states in the east unite together to form the nation of Corriera, in order to better oppose Resadeo.
275: Resadeo is over thrown and flees to Xalkara. He has no (legitimate) children and so his royal line is declared null and void. Lord Bisconi, a leading figure in opposing Resadeo with no previous royal claim, becomes the new Crown Prince of Cingordo. The New Thinker movement is set back great due to the associations with Resadeo's rule.
276: Civilisation in Xalkara is at its height, the Lel exodus begins.
277: The demon plague begins
278: The rise of The King in the West begins.
279: Demon Plague ends. Resadeo returns with a new fleet, but it is destroyed by a freak storm, forcing him to flee once more.
280: Destruction of Xalkaran civilisation is complete, the KITW takes complete
control of the western continent.
292: War between the Darsai and the Ivos begins. War quickly goes in the favour of the Darsai.
294: Centurion Dominus takes command of his Legion after their commanders
death and leads them to a series of stunning victories, turning around the
fortunes of the Ivos war effort.
297: First Nameless War begins with the invasion of Vellastrom by legions of
The Nameless Race led by the 14 Evils. The Darsai/Ivos war ends as the two
sides are united against the Nameless (largely due to the influence of the
wizard Quinn-Tain.)
298: Crown Prince Bosconi dies, his son Tremenzo takes over the throne of Cingordo.
301: The war ends with defeat for the forces of the West, though several of the
Evils survive and a large part of their armies escapes back to the West.
The alliance between the Nymus republic and Darsai Kingdom is formed to
ensure mutual protection and to safe guard Vellastrom as a whole.
The Knarl Empire invades the Cansaibe kingdom.
310: The Darsai Crusades against the Junlocks begin.
315: The Present-Nameless raids increase, as does bandit activity, fueling
fears that the King in the West will strike again soon. After the battle of
Napla, attacks within the Darsai kingdom stop abruptly.
-1500: (Approximate date) Prehistoric races (including the Vetalids and
