History of Eltcarem

This is a timeline of the most important events in the First Era. Very few records survive from this time, so this timeline is not as detailed as later timelines.

First Era

Eltcarem's First Era is defined by the rulership of dragons over the entire continent. In fact, the First Era begins with the arrival of the dragons from Berechan and ends with the overthrow of the Dragons nearly two-and-a-half millennia later. In this time, a few cities were founded, but not many because dragons would habitually destroy the settlements of other races
