A Comprehensive Timeline of the History of Pridaxus

Key:

BST- Before Standard Time

DST- During Standard Time

89 BST- The peace happening in the world is disturbed by 4 factions of fighting people, the costal “pirates” who live on the coasts of Glimmerier, the farmers of Glimmerier, the miners of Elvenwick, and the wealthy merchants (who employed said miners) of Idealps. These pirates were exiled by Glimmerier to the coasts, and in their time of exile they began to terrorize the two other main nations. In their confusion Idealps and their colony Elvenwick declares war on Glimmerier blaming them for the pirate invasions. Many of the information on the battles that will take place over the next 100 years have been lost throughout time but the first battle was the Battle of Linaigrette which was a hue loss for the Glimmerier forces.

44 BST- In a surprising act in the middle of the war, Elvenwick declares their independence from Idealps, the declares war on them

0- At the dawn of this new year, after 44 years of declaring independence the people of Elvenwick revitalize their control over their country. They created a Royal family, a man at the head, Johannes Astasuel who they believe descended from the goddess Vatia who they prayed to in secret. Even though this was not accepted by Idealps, the new nation of Elvenwick broke the chains that they were formally under

11 DST- Under Queen Ipomée of Glimmerier’s reign she stops sending food out of the country in an effort to end the war, which is successful. She created the TAN (Triad Association of Nations) , an organization to create peace, as well as the Treaty of Roses. The important parts of the Treaty were: the reestablishment of trades, the independence of Elvenwick as its own country, the permanent exile of the former pirates to an island named Nereus, and dedication to peace between the three nations. To cement this Ipomee offered her younger sister Noisette in marriage to the King of Idealps, as well as her youngest sister Soleirole to govern the newly exiled who now reside on Nereus. Other notes to add into this was the new calendar system. Year 0 would be the year that the Elvenwick calendar observed it as, however they would adopt the 12 month system of Idealps unlike the 6 month system of Elvenwick.

24 DST- Idealps begins their dedication to food science after the threat of losing food from Glimmerier in 11DST. This will last for over 250 years but the results will be fruitless

74 DST- Amphinis explorers travel to Sweetfish Island, Lily Rock and Twin Island and claim them under Amphinis. Elvenwick wishes to go to war, but Glimmerier and Idealps decide that war would not be best and that even with all of their islands Amphinis would not gain power to effectively fight either nation. Amphinis is allowed a seat in TAN which has been renamed AoPN (Association of Peaceful Nations), with the condition that this time they will actually agree too and follow the rules.

717 DST- Idealps began mass producing and training artists, increasing funding for the School of Miletus’ arts astronomically.
