Though various groups of humans, vulpines, and ursines have inhabited the region for milennia, the history of Asendavia properly begins in 1002 BC with the arrival of Gliat Sheans from western Yasteria. For two hundred years, most of Asendavia was split into a multitude of different city-states, until 815 BC, with the establishment of the Kingdom of Stromharad in eastern Asendavia.

The Early Medieval Period of Asendavia lasted from the end of the Unification Period in 1479 AA to the beginning of the High Medieval Period in 2451 AA. Major events that occurred during this time period include the First Asendavian War Over Succession, several wars with the Western Princes, and Brynjar's Plague.
=== First Asendavian War
{{Main|First Asendavian War of Succession}}
After the end of the Unification Period in 1479 AA, Asendavia would stagnate for the next few centuries, with no major wars or events taking place. However, in 2076 AA, the Kingdom of Asendavia would erupt into civil war upon the death of King Terje IX. Despite having 7 adult sons, with 4 more who weren't of age yet, Terje IX never designated an heir to the throne. This caused a succession crisis which would last for 9 years. Upon his father's death, Prince Viktor, Terje's 4th son, claimed the throne, crowning himself as Viktor V. This outraged the rest of his siblings though, who soon raised their own armies and began fighting among each other. Within two months of claiming the throne, Viktor V was dead, having been captured in battle and summarily executed by his older brother, Prince Hjalmar, Terje's first son. Prince Hjalmar would later crown himself as King Hjalmar VIII, and he ruled for 3 years until dying of tuberculosis. For the remaining 6 years of the civil war, the throne remained empty. With one of the child princes having died before coming of age and the remaining three coming of age, there were now 8 princes fighting for the throne. The climax of the war would occur with the Battle of Haldal in 2084 AA, when four of the princes met in battle. Twin Princes Adelar and Gunnar's army first engaged battle with Prince Halvor's army outside the village of Haldal, with Prince Reidar's army joining the battle 3 hours after the initial engagement. In total, the battle lasted 9 hours and ended with the victory of Princes Adelar and Gunnar. Prince Halvor's army, having been the smallest of the three armies and engaged from two sides, was utterly destroyed, with the survivors pledging allegiance to the Twin Princes. Prince Halvor himself lost a hand during the battle, and would die a few weeks later after his wounds grew infected. As for Prince Reidar, he and his army managed to escape with moderate losses, but Prince Reidar would later be assassinated by one of his commanders, who then swore fealty to the Twin Princes.
