Since the end of the bronze age, the region was dominated by the Kormistazic empire and its satellite states. The [[Norvians]] invaded the area in the early 8th century and introduced what would become Axdan language. The Kormistazic Empire also established and administered colonial territories on [[Arcturia]] for several centuries. After a five decade long series of invasions by Morstaybishlia in the 16th century, the area was incorporated into the empire and was known as Korstazia, later becoming a principality. The [[Auroran Imperial War]] saw Korstazia gain independence as [[Norograd]], before Axdel was founded after the [[Norograd Civil War]] in 1996.

Axdel is a developed nation and is considered a regional power with the second largest GDP and military budget on Aurora. It is also one of the largest countries on Urth, being the the 6th largest by land area and 10th largest by population. It also ranks highly in metrics of rates of civil liberties, education rates, and income equality.

Axdel is a largely temperate nation with significant deciduous forest coverage and fertile land which has been extensively used for agriculture. The climate ranges from humid subtropical along the north coast, humid continental in the interior regions and temperate oceanic along the southern coast. The [[Zycannes]] mountain range terminates along the Eastern border, with the [[Teba Mountains|Teba]] mountains forming the backbone of the nation and terminating with the [[Auric Mountains|Auric]] mountains along the coast. Axdel generates income from various sources, including energy, manufacturing, mining and agricultural exports, and international education.

Archaeological evidence suggests that human hunter gatherers originating from lake Lamberta arrived in the region at approximately 49,500BCE, and is the the first undisputed evidence of habitation. However, the controversial [[Cava man]] remains discovered in the Teba mountains, dated to 150,000BCE, are still considered by some archaeologists to be evidence of previous intelligent life in the area. In 35,000BCE the Chomlec culture emerged on the North coast of the western auroran peninsula of interconnected tribes and families. The Neolithic era emerged at approximately 10,000BCE after the emergence of agriculture and prompted the first permanent settlements at this time. The oldest known city in South West Aurora upon the site of modern-day Montza was founded in approximately 5600BCE by the Teba-Ulta culture. Metallurgy was independently developed in 4000BCE, with copper, silver and gold metalworking spreading rapidly across the region and driving a period of productivity increases and rapid urbanisation. Bronze working would later be introduced by migrants from the area of modern Staynes.
