Political Timeline

1st Age

On the dawn of the 1st Age, the Old Gods hesitated as they were about to destroy the last of the cities they had made. This place would come to be known as Váthi, the Final City, and it is from here that the Golden Isles and all of Arcadia would develop.
Facts:

• ?

Speculation:

• The Final City is one of the major pieces of evidence as to the existence of the Lost Age - an Age before the 1st Age, lost to history
• The tongue of the Old Gods would tell us more, but those seemingly simple lines and circles have always been largely unfathomable

2nd Age

The descent of the Vacae-Mirae on the orders of their Enlightened Masters initiates what will come to be known as the Vacae Invasion, the first war for the world of Aelladore. After the Vacae were defeated, the Starlight Court followed them into the stars, and neither have been seen ever since.

4th Age

A group of pirate barbarians known as the Savage Lords push north from Dracarys, threatening the peaceful existence of the disparate city-states of Gallorea. Ultimately, these city-states are forced to fight together or fall alone, and their victory over the Savage Lords leads to the founding of the Gallorean Alliance.
Facts:

• A major player in the war against the Savage Lords was the mysterious other Great Dragon native to Gallorea; due to this, the Savage Lords were mocked as the "Dragon-Scorned"

5th Age

The introduction of the iron age to Aelladore inspires multiple forces of evil to take up their arms for the fate of the world: the Dark God and It's demons, Baat-Shebava and her orcs and dark elves, and the Conqueror with his goblins united by a prodigal Chosen. This war is now known as the Great War, the War to End All Wars.
In the end, however, each force of evil wanted something different for Aelladore, and so they turned on each other. This betrayal was the perfect opportunity for a group of heroes to rise and defeat their armies, and the forces of evil swore to never again unite as one… or so it seemed.

8th Age

The most successful attempt by the Dark God to take over the world came in the form of the Eclipse Wars, a thousand-year conflict that was unintentionally extended after a desperate alchemist reached a breakthrough in potion manufacture and metallurgy to the point of reaching a stalemate with the Dark God's forces.
Even those advances weren't enough, however, and eventually the sun never set on the Dark God's empire of evil, shrouding the world in an eternal night.
Time was what it took for the forces of good to rise up and rebel, and dawn broke for the first time in a long, long time on the day of the next Age.

11th Age

The introduction of firearms to Aelladore bolsters the confidence of the forces of evil, pushing them to once again unite and initiate the Second Great War. This time, they forged a pact and divied up territory, and with those promises in place, Aelladore was laid waste to, burning in a great conflagration that choked out the sky with ash…
…But did anyone really expect them to keep to their word?

12th Age

After the Second Great War, the Dark God had been dealt a devastating blow. It's weakness was an opportunity seized by It's newest Avatar, and It was sealed away by this man, who would come to be known as the Usurper.
The resulting conflict has many names now: the Usurper's War, the Demon-Light War, the Siege of Hell. Demons and Lights stood side by side, united in a common cause to free enslaved demons from the Usurper's influence.
