Eastern Realms

The Eastern Realms are a group of kingdoms and republics that inhabit the northeastern coast of the continent of Ilura. It is an ancient land with a history spanning back thousands of years, to the first named counties and duchies emerging from the dirt, mud, and ruins from the ancient Before Times.  

Subregions

Today in the early months of the year E6Y547, the Eastern Realms can be divided in three subrealms, the Collective of Numiria in the northwest, the Kingdom of Karessia in the north and northeast, and the Kingdom of Tessuris in the south.  

History

The Eastern Realms are an ancient region in Ilura. Several races and lineages find their origin in these lands: according to legend, the elves descended from the many brothers and sisters of Mother and Father and emerged on Ilura where now roughly the @Monastery of the Stars is found, whereas Zharek, the God of Earth and Stone, first devised beings now known as the dwarves and their subraces in the contemporary Kingdom of Tessuris.  

Ancient history

The surrender of @Eveasson in E2Y947 during the Frosian conquests of Ilura marked the total conquest of Ilura, thereby marking the beginning of the beginning of the E3Y1, the Era of the Seven Emperors. God Emperor Frose and his heirs were either killed or died over merely a handful of years, his final son Igilium being killed during the Denturian Collapse of in E3Y9 where the floor of the ballroom in Castle Denturis collapsed, killing the large majority of all attendants. House Marishta took over power afterwards, marking the start of E4Y1 and a general sense of peace and order. The Marishtan Empire dissolved in E4Y231 when Empress Lumel and any heirs she would bear died in childbirth, dividing the empire over her three most powerful vassals into the kingdoms of Tessuris, Kingdom, and Vardaral.   During the War of Phragos from E5Y1156 to E5Y1266, when an alliance of Duergar kings emerged from their underground kingdoms, the Kingdom of Vardaral collapsed due to severe losses and subsequent infighting between the city states that made up the kingdom. Moreover, the chaos of the collapse of the Vardaral Kingdom caused significant turmoil in the surrounding lands, therefore being the marking of the start of E6Y1.
