Ethalria was one of Aurora's three colonial powers alongside [[Great Morstaybishlia]] and [[Salovia]], exerting influence and possessions in [[Arcturia]] and [[Gondwana]], but over time it held less and less influence on the world stage. The Second Posolic War led to a complete loss of the lands of Marislia and influence in the [[Morstaybishlian Sea]]. Ethalria signed all of its Arcturian possessions and territories to other Auroran powers to end the war.
Ethalria was the largest empire to span [[Aurora]], with territory nearly uninterrupted in modern day [[Great Morstaybishlia]], parts of [[Grand Monarchy of Salovia|Salovia]] and other empires of the Auroran continent, its economic prowess outmatched the Kormistazic, Caltharus and Salovian Empires combined. Known as ''
Ethalria was a leading member of a coalitions of nations against Morstopackia in the [[Great War]], it leagued with former rivals [[Grand Republic of Salovia]], as well as [[Asendavia]] and other world powers. Ethalria emerged victorious and reclaimed the lands of Marislia back from the Morstaybishlian Empire but subsequently entered nearly a decade of economic depression. Going into the 20th century, [[Osterlicsh]] was the last colony, and during the depression it was given home rule. When the depression ended, Ethalria worked on its unemployment problem and invested heavily into the manufacturing and technology industries and became an economic superpower. In the 1950s and 1960s vied primarily against Morstaybishlia and Salovia in the Auroran Space Race. These technologies moved the three powers into a nuclear arms race and would continue to escalate tensions until the breakout of the [[Auroran Imperial War]]. In 1975 and 1976, the post-war recession crippled Ethalria and the Sofura Revolution that spanned over July and August 1975 broke the empire into two states; the Grand Republic of Ethalria and the Matriarchy of Ethalria. The Grand Republic chose to hold on to the monarchy of Ethalria but the new fascist matriarchy did not.

As the climate got milder, humans moved into the neolithic era and became sedentary. This is believed to have happened in Ethalria around 6,500 years ago. The Ægon culture formed from an amalgamation of Elven and Human peoples around 3,500 BCE and would later refine itself to become the Ætal culture as early as 1,000 BCE.
