=== Prehistory and early history ===
Archaeological evidence suggests that human hunter gatherers originating from lake Lamberta arrived in the region in approximately 30,000BCE, and is the the first undisputed evidence of habitation. In 25,000BCE the Chomlec culture emerged on the North coast of the western auroran peninsula of interconnected tribes and families. Chomlec society flourished for a while, however it soon fractured due to increasing migration across the rest of the peninsula. The Neolithic era began in approximately 8,000BCE after the (re)emergence of agriculture and spurred the establishment of the first permanent settlements. Metallurgy was independently developed in the foothills of the Auric Mountains in 4000BCE, with copper, silver and gold metalworking spreading rapidly across the region and driving a period of productivity increases and urbanisation. Bronze working would later be introduced into the region, likely from the far east where the first true Auroran civilisations were developing, namely the [[Nelokhvi Empire]], or by proxy through nomads roaming the Staynish region who regularly interacted with them [[File:Lapytian Fortress.jpg|thumb|251x251px|Partially restored walls of Aeqa, a small Lapytian city abandoned in the 1300's BCE]]
The first advanced civilisation in the region was Lapytia, which was established in 1950 BCE on the upper course of the [[Ueclid River]]. The region there was well suited for agriculture, thanks to its drier summers, relatively meek springtime flooding and the ease of irrigating the alluvial floodplains. The capital of Lapyta was the largest and most influential city in the region, and established close links with many other towns and cities along the valley. Its architecture Multiple systems of writing had used intermittently, with several periods of use, collapse and redevelopment from 1950-1000 BCE for a number of reasons. Most notably was an extended drought in 1530 BCE which caused Lapyta to become almost abandoned for several decades before the population returned. Other collapses may have been due to soil depletion or extreme geologic activity. Despite this, the Lapytian cities had a rich culture of artistry and oral tradition which persisted throughout their history. Widescale urban planning is also evident alongside competent architectural ability as seen in the Lapya palace complex in modern day Montza. Whilst no cities were built in the lower Ueclid, trade routes existed along the river with local communities, and several satellite kingdoms emerged due to the prosperity it brought.

In the 12th century BCE, King Eida began a conquest which saw the entire Upper Ueclid come under his dominion. In the north the Soltic confederacy, a naval coastal state east of the Ueclids mouth, began its own campaign to control the kingdoms of the fertile floodplains in the area. The powers came into conflict in the middle of the century provoked war with Eida's Ueclid Empire sending warships up the river to raid towns and constrict trade. Taking advantage of their weak land forces, Eida pushed down the valley and sieged their holdings on the river and the coast. However, many areas were able to hold out thanks to supplies brought in by their navy. Eida was succeeded by his son Eida II, who launched a campaign into Soltic territory which eventually succeeded, putting the entire Ueclid valley and the Northern coast under his dominion by the 11th century BCE. The unified Ueclid empire remained the status quo for approximately a century as the dominant power.
