History of Nestor
Pre-historic era (0 - 3603)
- The island of Nestor Mayor has been inhabited for a long time. The people on the island were known as the Nestalic but this is because the real name of the tribe was lost due to a lack of written records. The Nestalics lived a simple life as nomads of the land and used fishing techniques. The Nestalics were introduced to farming and other technologies from the mainland of Anaria. This meant that even though Nestor was on an island, they still received technologies from the mainland.
- The first feudal kingdoms were being recorded in 2278 RH with the kingdom of Jung, kingdom of Erapo and the kingdom of Giondo being the oldest.
- In 3578 RH, the first constant written records have been found with the mention of kingdoms of Centil, Cultar, Erapo, Giondo, Jung, Radir, Ravnar and Remonir.
- In 3603 RH was the recorded war between the kingdom of Erapo and Ravnar. Capital of Ravnar fell not long after 3612 RH after the battle of Eran. After the battle or Eran, the Ravnar-Erapo war continued a few more years with the king of Ravnar Alak refusing to surrender. Alak used deadly tactics in order to postone the fall of the kingdom leading to very high casualties. The king of Erapo Garises III did not back down from the deadly battle fought in the war. In 3617 the kingdom of Ravnar was finnally defeated at the battle of Savol. The kingdom of Ravnar made a puppet and given to Garises's second oldest son. Even though the region kept the name of Ravnar, Ravs in the former kingdom were enslaved and treated horribly.
Lord History (3603 - 4139)
- In 3632 RH traders from Anaria spread the Erecund religion to the kingdom of Erapo (the largest empire on the coast or Nester Mayor). The new king of Erapo, Aron vil Era, adopted the religion soon after and declared it the religion of the kingdom. In the name of the religion, Aron wanted to spread the Erecund religion to all of Nester under one flag, united by Erecund. He renamed his empire to the Erinic Empire.
- In 3672 RH the city of Astidill was founded, this city was made by refugees from the Erinic Empire who were not a fan of the Erecund religion. The lord of Calal was banished from the Erinic Empire due to unholy acts accroding to Erecund temple and fled to Astidil. City creation of Astidil was recieved positily by the Munc tribe that lived in the area. After a treaty was signed, the city of Astidil was allowed to stay as long as Muncs got technology to enter the farming era and Astidil helped in the war against the Cultaric Empire.
- In 3709 RH the Muncs started eight other kingdoms, all of them former tribes that settled down. Two tribes joined Astidil and four tribes spilt up to join different tribes and three tribes were defeated and enslaved during minor wars.
- In 3753 RH the Erinic Empire invaded Remonir and pushed them to the island of Treon. Soon after they were pushed to the island, an peace treaty was signed with an agreement that Remonir would convert to Erecund.
- In 3763 RH the Cultaric Empire started invading the new Muncanic tribal kingdoms starting with the invasion of Astidil. The Muncanic tribes created the Muncor alliance which all but one nation joined. The lord of Zalcun refused to joined due to the believe that it was en losing war for the Muncs. However in 3765, Giondo joined the alliance coming to the aid of Muncs. Zalcun joined the alliance in response but only a few month later, the Erinic Empire started invading Giondo. There was no alliance between the Cultaric Empire and the Erinic Empire but the Kingdom of Giondo fell rather quickly in 3769 RH. The Kingdom of Giondo was puppeted but because Giondo converted to Erecund, there were no large scale enslavements. However, Erinic was still extremely agressive with pushing the Erecund religion, often inprisoning people who believed anything else than Erecund. What happened to the religious prisoners is unknown but what is certain was Erinic prisons had a low survival rate.
- In 3773 RH the Erinic Empire declared war on both the Cultaric Empire and the remains of the Munc alliance. In 7381 RH, the king of Cultar was killed in battle leaving the remains of Cultaric Empire in chaos for years. Because of the chaos, The Erinic Empire focussed its effort on the Muncs.
- In 3794 RH the Munc alliance had fallen and the people were converted to Erecund with force. The Kingdom of Jung signed the treaty of Ertilan stating that the entire island Nester Mayor should be Erecund. The Kingdom of Junc agreed to convert Erecund just like the Erinic Empire demands.
- In 3842 RH the Erinic Empire continued with its expansion into the nation of Centil with the help of the Kingdom of Gragin whose daughter had married the second oldest son of the king of the Erinic Empire. The kingdom of Centil fell in 3851 RH and the king of Gragin died only one year later making the second oldest son of the king of the Erinic Empire lord of Gragin. The former king of Gragin was killed by an Erinic spy.
- In 3853 RH the religous elite of Erecund were not pleased with the mildness of Kingdom of Jung in their conversion efforts. In 3854 RH, the Erinic Empire invaded the Kingdom of Jung. The mountain region of the Kingdom of Jung in the eastern part of the kingdom was not invaded to do the harsh terrain. The Erinic Empire claimed the whole island to be theirs even though the hidden kingdom of Heranica was not found deep the Hivic mountians. The kingdom of Giondo stayed a puppet until 3862 RH and the Kingdom of Junc commited more to Erecund in order to be invaded by the Erinic Empire.
- The Erinic Empire started with heavy reforms and purges in order to keep the stability in the region. In 4033 RH the Erecund suppression was lessened and the empire became more stable.
- In 4098 RH the Erinic Empire became a lord based democracy further increasing stability.
Erinic era (4239 - 5351)
- The deadly history of the Erinic Empire was put straight in order to make the nation stable for a long time. Many stability programs were installed including giving the lords more power over their own land as long as they followed the Erecund religion. The Herdom of Giondo was the first to gain more power over its land with Baragozo IV convincing the king in 4139 RH.
- In 4216 RH the Erinic Empire was split into 130 Herdoms with one of these herdom including the nation of Heranica which still wasn't discovered at this point. Heranica stayed deep in the Hivic mountians which are made of stone that erode fast. This causes the region to have spiky mountains and underground sectors. These underground sectors were created by underground rivers that flowed past eroding the rocks aways. These caves were home to Hara bats which the people of these caves caught for food. These underground sectors also had large lakes with fish and these lakes were connected to the sea on the Legar coast and used as breeding ground of the Setar fish.
- In 4212 RH the Erinic Empire expanded to Nester Minor whose few tribes were still living a primative nomadic lifestyles. The sailing technology of the Erinic Empire was quite limited at the time due to their focus on the land force.
- In 4233 RH the Erinic Empire expanded to the island of Spal which was still uninhabited. On arrival, a fleet of ships sank and a few hundred people were stranded on the island. The island was large enough to sustain a population stayed on the island.
- The era between 4219 RH to 4823 RH are known as the Erinic golden age turning the Erinic Empire as one of the most powerful Erecund nations on Gotha.
- In 4824 Rh the island of Nester Mayor was struck by a large deadly plague impacting almost every corner of the island. The records about the deathtoll are uncertain but estimates put the deathtoll between 12% abnd 56%. The huge amount of death caused by this plague caused people of the Erinic Empire to question the power of Erecund gods.
- In 4829 RH the demand for more religous freedom caused a large divide among the people of the Erinic Empire. This demand was driven by the new religions the island was introduced by via the mainland of Anaria and the decreasing believe in the Erecund gods. The Erinic Empire struck down many of the attempts to bring new religions to the island.
- In 4945 RH the Erinic Empire looked more into Anaria to destroy the enemy religions from the origin however the Eric Empire overestimated its power.
- The Erinic Empire fought along side other Erecund nations in religious wars between 5001 RH and 5264 RH however the wars got increasingly more costly. The people pressured the Erinic Empire to pull out of Anaria due to the increasing pressence of enemy forces close the island. During these wars, the holy tablets of Erecund were threatened to be destroyed and they were cut into three and transported to the Erinic Empire for a period of time.
- The forces of Anarian relgions landed on Nester Mayor in 5269 RH and this caused massive unrest on the island of Nester Mayor. The Erinic Empire was forced to pull out of Anaria and defend the mainland. However on the way home, the army was struck down by an Anarian fleet. The loss of this army further caused panic among the people of Nester Mayor and the especially among the lords.
- In 5329 RH the first lord left the Erinic Empire and in 5351 RH all lords left the Erinic Empire. Even though the lords stayed loyal to the Erecund religion, they were no longer loyal to the royals of the Erinic Empire. The fall of the Erinic Empire shaped the course of the Nestoric island ever since. The lords kept out all the Anarian nations except other Erecund nations.
Medieval era (5351 - 7405)
- The nation split into almost 500 regions, all under a different lord or sometimes even a religious leader. The lords quickly started to see themselves as the true succesor to the Erinic Empire, the lords wanted to bring back the glory days of the old empire, from the golden age of stabilty and progress between 4219 RH and 4823 RH.
- The first wars were declared in 5351 RH mostly more powerful lords taking over weaker lords who didn't manage to gather enough power before the empire fell apart.
- In 5354 RH the weakest lords and religious leaders were taken over leaving the island with 150 lords with each one of them with about the same power. The reason for the equality in power per lords was done by the Empire for stability reasons but now it meant no lords could unite the island. A few nations that were destroyed by the Erinic Empire came back after the fall of the empire like the kingdom of Giondo and the Muncs.
- In 5387 RH many lords started to militarise a lot, creating defensive structures and recruting large armies. Every man who didn't have and important job had to server and all families had to offer their first born son to the lords armies. In order for the lords to wage more and more wars. Woman were obligated to bare as much children as possible, having 10 to 15 children per woman was not unheard of. The life expentency dropped far down due to the deathrate in wars, death during childbirth for both the mother and the baby and the harsh treatment of conquered lands. The wars fought between the lords was deadly for both sides, but because of the constant high birth rate, the population stayed stable. In order to keep the warriors motivated, the The warring lords created a strong warrior culture under the soldiers. Every fit man would serve in the military, if the soldier survived long enough, he was deemed worthy of a family. The wars provided for a type of natural selection that caused only the best soldiers to reproduce. This system caused a large surplus of women during this period. The strongest and most successful soldiers were allowed to retire and focus on raising a whole new generation of soldiers. This meant that a woman married to a soldier had an obligation to have as many children as possible. The women who didn’t get married to a soldier became dominant in the social services of the nation including basic education, nursing and caretaker.
