The earliest records of the existence of inhabitants in this part of the peninsula date back to 3000 BCE with cave paintings, archaeological evidence and most fascinatingly, the walls. These walls are fairly tall at 20-30m and cover quite a large part of Amestris and Mõnstæd. It is not known when exactly these walls were built, but they existed before the earliest writing systems developed here. The first writing system was a logo-syllabary dating back to around 1900 BCE. It is fairly well understood and is a valuable source of information for the Early history of Zeiberland. The earliest species were dominantly elves and nekomimi.

=== Foreigners ===
=== Foreigners and rise of empires ===
Around 200BCE, a group of people landed in 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 'large jungle area' was in fact a peninsula that was inhabited. The two groups of settlements slowly mingled and over years, there were two large settlements, mõnstæd and nordail. The Zeibear language, then known as Azana, had been fleshed out into a logo-syllabary. 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 settlers. This caused a very big shift in the peninsula and thus began the age of conquest.

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.
