They were the only inhabitants of the continent originally. Humans came to the new continent from another continent, colonized it, and then started pushing the demihumans to the west. The humans used orcs and hobgoblins as shock troops in their armies.When the campaign started, the humans had pushed most of the demihumans as far west as the campaign-world's equivalent of the Mississippi River. The elves had a nomadic, horse-based culture much like the Plains Indians. The dwarves and gnomes inhabited the Rockie Mountains. The halflings were traders accepted by all the races, and could travel freely in all lands; they acted as sort of go-betweens or middle men in trade between the demihumans and the humans.</blockquote>
