=== Foreigners and rise of empires ===
=== Foreigners and rise of empires ===
Around 200BCE, a group of people arrived at the island that is now known as Nordail. They built a small settlement there and for almost 3 centuries, no one was aware of a larger island. circa 120 was when the foreign settlers realised that the 'larger jungle area' was in fact a peninsula that was inhabited. The two groups of settlements slowly mingled and over years, were two large settlements, mõnstæd and nordail. The Zeibear language, then known as Azana, had been fleshed out into a logo-syllabary. It's phonemes were very different and not many spoke it. The years until the early 800s were mostly uneventful, with the Zeibesh people expanding their territories. Then one day, a ship sailed into the region west of Mõnstæd. These were Salovian explorers who eventually brought with them human settlers. This also bought with them the religion of Thaerism. Those foreigners who hadn't joined the Zeiban(then called Seyban) settled north of the Hlu river. This gave rise to the Eizyue empire. The Eizyue empire was the only state in the history of the peninsula to have given attention to the race of its people. It was primarily humans and a supressed minority of elves. The Eizyue empire became a major threat to the Zeiban empire in the early 1200s. This caused a very big shift in the peninsula and thus began the age of conquest.

=== The curse of Alagad ===
Greater Alagad was a small state that was formed in the 870s and lasted till 1672. There is a rather interesting and haunting story behind it. The people of Alagad, in 1671, were suspicious of their new ruler who was called, ẹ̴̈̆̉̐́̒é̸̜̩͚͌́̃͗͜þ̸̧̣̬̙͂̑͑"̵̢̪̞̃̍͑̈́͠ø̶͍̦͉̞̘̂́͐ç̶̧̼̤̯͍̃͐͊̀͘å̴̱̰̿ê̶̹̺̈́͗̅̃̚, as he supposedly had been involved with inhuman experiments. One day, a group of young salovian men decided to break into the kings laboratory. The things they found are unknown but they were horrible enough for the people of Alagad to revolt. Even the king's guards supported the public. The king was dethroned and was thrown in the prison in his own palace.
