See Creation Stories of Akna

It is unknown how long the creation lasted, some speculate from 26000 to millions of years. It is also impossible to even know if time worked the same back then, so this era is clouded in mystery.

Age of the Dragon (23000-1300 BMA)
Little is known about this era, and some scholars even debate its existence but based on ruins found in the Nocturn Mountains, and in Mixcoatl, there appears to be evidence of some sort of civilization, most likely formed by Dragons. It is unknown who ruled the land or what caused the dragons to flee to other planes, but is generally believed to be the hubris of the metallic dragons.

Age of Storms (1300-1 BMA)
After the dragons fled, all that remained were the humanoid races that inhabited the material plane. sea levels rose, leaving only islands. During this time, civilizations had a hard time forming, because of frequent natural disasters and diseases throughout the world.

Eventually, hundreds of kingdoms began to pop up on Nocturn and Luxtamare, and over time began to war against eachother and aquiring territories. at this time, the sea was too dangerous to cross, leaving every island isolated from others.

Age of Exploration: The Modern Age 1-Today
Within the first 500 years of this era, modern countries began to form, and were followed by another 500 years of technical advancement in ships, allowing different islands to reach eachother. This new contact with eachother lead to innovations in technology and a new era of ideas.

982 The Draconic War- In a war between Luxtamare and Nocturn, Luxtamare had acquired nearly all of the territory of Nocturn, taking nearly the whole country. In a last resort, the most powerful wizard of the elves summoned dragons from beyond our plane to take the lands back. The next 50 years lead to a contentious war between the dragons and nocturn, eventually wiping out the metallic dragons of Nocturn.

1032 The Discovery of Mixcoatl- A Luxtamarian explorer lands on the shores of Mixcoatl, and the two lands trade for the next 60 years.

1030 Forming the Archepelago of Lux- Luxtamare conquers the other islands in the Archipelago of Lux after 60 years of on and off wars.

1065 Formation of the Vala Colonies- Vala declares war and takes Mixcoatl as a colony, which it still rules to this day

1077 Luxtamarian Civil Wars- over 20 years, Rormry and Kilghara attempted to succeed from Luxtamare, which caused a major civil war that still effects the archepellago to this day. It ended in 1588 with the creation of the Ira Harmonous, giving the isles and the people in it human rights.
