[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 5170147, member: 11697"] 1e didn't really give a firm answer on the topic as I recall (will have to snag my MotP 1e and look in a moment*, but again as I recall there wasn't all that much detail about the history of the planes). Planescape started the ball rolling on speculation regarding the history of the planes and their evolution over time and different sources speculated on different aspects of that, and that continued quite a bit in 3.x as well especially in the Fiendish Codex I (and II to a lesser extent), and in various material in Dragon and Dungeon. *can't see from a quick look that it even touches on the topic. I'm tempted to say that the edition really didn't look at it, and in the absence of any coverage some folks are going to apply an assumption based on whatever they personally believe / a cultural default / a cosmos that conforms to their gaming philosophy, none of which are at all wrong mind you.
