Kostuvian Empire: Difference between revisions

The Kostuvian Empire was an empire that stretched throughout the continent Aurora, and is the predecessor to [[Kostuvastan]], [[Tuvaltastan]], [[Kostromastan]], [[Tivot]], and [[Baykalia]].

At around 50,000 B.C.E., early humans arrived at the continent Aurora from Yasteria via the archipelago that consists of what is now modern-day [[Federated Alliance of Free Pacific States|FPS]], [[Nation/East Malaysia|East Malaysia]], [[Lawzlowia]], and [[Musfiqistan]]. The first known settlement resides on the easternmost island of modern day Xiopothos, and hundreds of settlements can be found along the northern coast of Aurora. These north-coast settlements are believed to be the ancestors of the nations Kostromastan, Baykalia, Tivot, and Tuvaltastan, as DNA tests from the bones discovered in these settlements are most similar to the culture groups of former Kostuvastan.

The first mention of a unified Kostuvastan dates back as far as 2,500 B.C.E. on the coast of the largest lake of Aurora, with the discovery of a mosaic portraying a crude map of Lake Lamberta as the center, with land surrounding it. This is believed to be the oldest map of Aurora. The settlement the map was found in was destroyed and abandoned because of an earthquake of 8.2 magnitude. For another 800 years, the continent of Aurora consisted of numerous tribes, until another re-unified region formed in 1,700 B.C.E. that sprawled throughout the continent. This ancient empire is the direct predecessor of the modern-day nations Tuvaltastan, Kostromastan, Tivot, and Baykalia.
