==History==
===Pre-Milofite===
Very little is know about the Pre-Milofite period in Durdanini. It is likely that the current tribal system existed, but with more conflict between the tribes than would be the case in later eras. The area is beleived to have been inhabited by populations of Nekomimi and Felines since prehistoric times. Over time tribes formed encompassing the region, eventually consolidated into 24 seperate Tribes, each divided into 12 ancestries. In the Pre-Milofite period this would likely have been looser, but specifics as to the interplay between tribes in this period was limited, as the information only survives from Oral Histories. The Religious Tradition of the Chosen priesthood also likely dates back to this time. According to Durdish Historical Epic ''Rua of the Sun'' the tribes were in near constant war with one another, with the Elder Tribes of Each Ancestry tyrannizing over the Younger.

After this event the historical record is empty until the events of ''Rua of the Sun'', which detail the arrival of the "Green Eyed Ones" as the epic calls them. Soon after their landing they founded the city of [[Timtalum]], which is believed to be a bastardized version of the Durdneelian word for Landfall. The Milofites then likely made alliances with nearby tribes, and helping said tribes in wars against their rivals. According to the Epic, the legendary Rua Connachta, leader of the "Green Eyed Ones", united the Eastern Tribes in Confederation, but was sadly forced to fight a war against the more mountainous western tribes in order to unite the people of Mili. Due to the ethnic divide between the east and west, with the west comprising of more
