Aside from the aboriginal peoples living on the land, the first group of adventurers set foot on the land in the 10th century, landing on the coasts of modern-day Madelina. The first settlers did not stay dormant for long before again setting off for the unknown, towards the west. After a series of events, the 18 tribes of the Endery League united to form the Federation. Enderopias today is a federal parliamentary republic operating under a high degree of unity. The 18 tribes has been cooperative and supportive of each other through their hardest times, and to prevent biases towards any of them, the government spreads its operations over all the major cities.
The Endertopian government practiced isolationism after its foundation with an eye to stabilizing the nation after an almost-60-year-long conflict. Efforts have been made in recent ages to speed up the internationalization and modernization of the economy, with heavy subsidies on the high-tech and tourism industries. The vast landscapes and cultures stemming from the 18 historic aboriginal tribes makes for a great attraction to tourists.
History
The Expeditionists
The first documented records landing of people on what would now be Endertopias date back to 934 AD. The historic documents, in the form of diaries were written by a group of adventurers from an unknown origin. The group, later named the Expeditionists, first made landfall on the eastern coast near modern-day Madelina. They set up camps, deciding not to travel further by sea. The Expeditionists would then go on more adventures to uncharted lands west of the Madelina coast. The vast plains in the area allowed them good progress, and eventually to reach their first natural barrrier, the Flameflower Mountains. They would later change directions to discover the Skywynne Mountains in the north.
Endery Tribes
The original residents of the Endertopian lands are the Endery tribespeople, consisting mainly of elves. It is estimated that they have been living on and around the Flameflower Mountain Ranges for over 5000 years. Historians have currently recognised 18 different distinct tribes across the Flameflower and Skywynne Mountains, most of which shared similar ways of living and systems of society. They were somewhat religious societies all believing in different goddesses (Skynesses) of their own, though the ways they worshipped them were mostly the same, with the only difference based on the Skynesses' individual preferences. Most of the Endery tribes elect their leaders once a year in a gathering, while some others decide their leaders in different ways. The tribes are closely connected with other tribes, with documents and artifacts indicating a prosperous trading system between tribes. The tribe leaders hold a grand meeting, called the Endreassembly, every 12 years to discuss important matters. A common theme is unification, though many discussions were not fruitful.

With the news of successful expedition spreading, more and more people followed the Expeditionists onto the land. Over time, a new society emerged, the old members of the Expeditionists slowly gained power and prevalence in the newly formed system. In 1021 AD, outsiders made their first contact with the Endery tribes.
