Around the 2000s BCE there started to be records about peoples of the language that evolved into what today is Impelanzan. They are known as Peragians because of the Peragen river, which divides nowadays Rodenia from South Peragen and to which they were settled in both sides. They were actually the peoples already living in the region, but they adopted a new language by influence of peoples from the north and there was a change in their cultural and organisational conceptions, probably due to both the influence of Intergua to the south and to the constant need of new lands after an agricultural crisis that made them move and clash with Intergua. The wars between Peragians and the Interguan states are dated between 1500 and 1000 BCE. The expansion attempts to the south stopped when the Peragians definitely settled in the area and created some city-states that traded with Intergua and with other cultures to the north and east, acting as intermediaries.

That was the situation for the next 600-700 years. The Peragian city-states grew in population and expanded to the west, creating new cities or "colonies" that depended symbolically from the city of origin but were politically independent. This activity took place mostly in an island so largely colonised that it's known as [[Peragen Exterior]] ("Outer Peragen"). One of the most active cities in colonising was [[Pelda]], nowadays Rodenia. Even today, in Tunseist countries each city has its own god, and Pelda's one is Impel, "In-pel(da)". The royal lineage of the city was known as the House of the Impeles, since they claim to descend from [[Impel]] himself, who would have been a human in the past. Hence, many kings and queens from the House of the Impeles were called Impelanto/Impelanta, meaning "the one who is like Impel".

One of the heirs to the Peldan throne, called Impelanto, led the expedition to found a new colony around 500 BCE: [[Arsal]]. Arsal had very expansionist trends from the beginning. They gathered a strong military force and in the 400s BCE they took over their neighbour city-states, installing members of the Impeles to rule them. They had good trade connections with the Outer Lands to the west, which granted them a prestige position together with other cities as Tingá and Lespanza, also former Peragian colonies. Lespanza was a very prosperous state, with connections to the Peragian sphere they were part of, Intergua to the south, the rest of Peragen Exterior and the Outer Lands to the west.
