The first recorded evidence of sentient habitation is traced to Stone Age dark-skinned humans from central Aurora who are the ancestors of today's Native Emberitians. Archaeological digs dated to 6500 BCE indicate they lived in small, nomadic, and pastoral tribes and spread over the northwestern coast of the peninsula and the forested highlands to the south. As west Auroran cavan civilizations consolidated intoaround the Kormistaziccity empirestates of Laqytia, these nomadic peoples were constrained towards the northern coast, limiting their spread to the northwest coast of the western peninsula. Semi-permanent settlements existed in a novel format, cultivating semi-organized fields of grains that were shared between traveling groups in an arrangement that still exists (albeit in a more motorized format) in current day Aurora as the Nyerrian peoples. Civilization was, at least until the 6th century CE, limited to small villages. The most advanced of these utilized bronze tools, and sparse steel implements from more advanced empires that had filtered through the mountains separating the coastal highlands from the Lyr Valley. By the 7th century BCE, these groups had unified into a loose coalition under the name "Aronia".

As other human civilizations expanded across the continent, other species including u[http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Uspria[Species#Usprian_Elves%7CUsprian spalriansElves|uspalrians]] and [[Vulpine|vulpines]] were forced from their lands as ethnic human empires began to solidify to the east. These ethnic groups settled and intermingled with the semi-nomadic cultures to form more permanent cities. Irrigated farms and contemporary aqueducts helped support larger settlements, spurring a further population boom. This boom was further compounded after the nearbyexpanding Kormistazic ruleempire suffered defeats to Solto and Teban armies. This, coupled with decline of established empires allowed for steady growth of local city-states, the strongest of which was the city of [[Aurelia]] near modern day Aymes around the early 2nd century BCE. nIn the 2nd century CE, the Kormistazic civilization andempire began to encroach on Aronian land, seeing its potential value as a new province. The few existing cities formed small armies to counter imperial incursions, and resisted being conquered by the Kormistazic for over a century. Due to resistance by the SoltoSoltics and Tebanother unruly satellite civilizationscivilisations, the Kormistazic were unable to devote enough resources to conquering the AroniansAronian at the time. However, in the 1st century CE, the Kormistazic defeated these civilizations including the Aronians. Continued raids by [[Axdel|Kormistazic]] forces slowly eroded the city's infrastructure and military strength until, in 122 CE, it was conquered. Further campaigns brought the remainder of the region, save for a few small towns, into Kormistazm rule.

Later, however, the collapse of Kormistazm and eruption of Mount Tore in 512CE allowed the region to develop independently once more, now with significantly more advanced technology from under Kormistazic rule. The region's unique geography lent itself to a somewhat reduced impact from the disaster, helping the area "catch up" in technological development with its larger neighbors. Valerian refugees brought further new technologies including the compass, spinning wheel, and carding machines; as well as leading to advancements like wood-pulp paper in 611CE, and wind-powered grain mills in the late 770s CE. These discoveries coupled with advancements in steelworking, archery, and military science allowed the alliance to remain free of outside rule nearly until the end of the millennium. With that time, small but growing cities were establishing identities as centers of refugee and immigrant life, leading to extensive democratic structures and forestalling inroads of capitalism significantly. Worker's councils oversaw production of grain and steel, construction and maintenance of infrastructure, even staffing and administration of a contemporarily advanced public education network. This lead to the largest of the cities in that age, [[Kaleidoscope#History|Vale]] (modern day Kaleidoscope), having a population in excess of 100,000 people in 804CE. In total, the current land area of Emberwood Coast was estimated to be home to over 300,000 people in the year 800 CE, almost a full third of which having genealogies originating outside the region or continent. In 913, however, the militaristic and expansionist second Kormistazic Empire made signifigantsignificant inroads into the region. Numerous battles slowed but failed to stop this advance, leading to the reconquest of the area and it's settlement by Kormistazic nationals. Interestingly, only a partial reconstruction of the region took place, leading to abandonment of some population centers (including Aurelia, Birdsong, and Imi). This lead to a resurgence of agrarian and pastoral lifestyles, capitalized upon by Kormastazic leadership in the form of grain quotas and mandatory exports in order to fuel its eastern expansion. While this did strengthen the military efforts in campaigns like Staynicca, it severely reduced quality of life in the Aronian province. Cavan settlers from Kormistazic territory occasionally evicted and killed human, vekaiyun and uspalrian farmers with the help of local forces. Strained imperial forces held the Aronian land despite efforts of democratic agitators and independence movements until the late 10th century, when weakening central leadership allowed for the organization of a number of underground organizations as well as the further development of proto-syndicalist ideology. Kormistazic rule was never fully broken, however, and the reformation of the country as the Third Kormistazic Empire only further solidified the authoritarian policies enacted on the land.

''Main Articles: [[Emberitian Revolution]]'' Work programs helped alleviate direct action and terrorism somewhat, but had an inverse effect on regular workers, and again, radical theory spread like wildfire in the close working environments of ship's hulls and high-rise skeletons. By 1940, political violence in KorstaziaAxdel had begun to spill over into Noroist violence in some small Emberitian towns, and police militarization began sharply increasing. Lone ceremonial guards around government buildings were replaced with IFVs and body-armored troops, yet by 1957 there were scant months that passed without a [[Emberitian Revolution|separatist demonstration or attack]]. Notably, all but two bombings managed to avoid civilian injury.

A relatively young nation, Emberwood Coast has been around for only 40 years. The nation is a breakaway territory of [[NorogradNoroist Axdel]] (which itself was a breakaway from the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]]) since the outbreak of the [[The Auroran Imperial War| Auroran Imperial War]]. As tensions grew and war raged on, the citizens of the coast could no longer allow themselves to add to the fight.
