Throughout the history of Aloria, many events have occurred. Some affecting few, some affecting many, some shaking the entire world or merely causing a minor tremor. History is made daily, but ancient history is recorded and discovered fairly infrequently. The tomes and artifacts from long ago might have only been discovered by chance, or been unearthed after long years of research by many people. You can learn about these events, and cultivate great knowledge of Aloria's sizable and interesting history here.

Ancient History encompasses events that took place before the [[Cataclysm]], the devastating event which tore apart much of [[Aloria]]. The first Alorians, known only as the [[Seraph]], ended up bringing about destruction to their people through the overuse of magic. Several civilizations that systematically replaced the Seraph (and each-other) mimicked this in a cycle of repeating [[Void Invasions]]. While some remnants of cultures survived into later periods, Aloria eventually saw the powerful [[Elven Empire]] nearly rise to the same power of the Seraph before they were torn apart. Elsewhere, the origin of a myriad of races and cultures developed, many of which can be seen roaming Aloria today.

Recent History takes place after the Cataclysm, and is much more well-known than the ancient past. During this time, the [[Elven Empire]] and its people divided, while the [[Ailor]], a marginalized slave people, rose up to rule states of their own. The largest of these, the [[Regalian Empire]] formed a rivalry with the other Alorian superpower, the [[Songaskian Masaya]] of [[Farah’deen]]. Elsewhere, other races and cultures continued their lives unimpeded by this hostility, and made their own history for the century to come.

Though Aloria's past is rich and rife with plots and conflicts, its history is still in the making. Recent Events are those that have happened since the year 300 AC, and is the only kind of history in Aloria that the player-base may regularly interact with and appear in.
In the past five years of Alorian history, there has been an unprecedented flurry of activity. From civil strife within the [[Regalian Empire]], to a conflict between Regalia and the [[Songaskian Masaya]], to the [[Statue of Estel]] returning from the annals of myth, these Recent Events within Aloria have drastically shaken up old structures of power. Time will only tell which decisions were the right call and which will reap catastrophic repercussions.

Throughout the history of Aloria, many events have occurred. Some have affected few, some affecting many, some shaking the entire world, and some merely causing a minor tremor. History is made daily, but ancient history is recorded and discovered fairly infrequently. The tomes and artifacts from long ago might have only been discovered by chance, or been unearthed after long years of research by many people. You can learn about these events, and cultivate great knowledge of Aloria's sizable and interesting history here.
