[QUOTE="Baron Opal, post: 4690514, member: 10433"] I was going to fork this from the history thread, but I couldn't find it. I've been tinkering with making / remaking a new campaign world and I thought that I would look to some paleantology for some inspiration. [U]~ 130,000 y.a.[/U] Ice Age begins. Remains with complete Neanderthal characteristics are found that date from this age. Proto-Neanderthal remains with partial characteristics are found dating up to 600,000 y.a. * * * * The failing of the Squamous powers; the Naga Kings fail in their draconic mandate and are cast down. Primordials war. Ymir’s victory. [U]~ 50,000 y.a.[/U] “Great Leap Upward” After long, slow development of stone tools, the rate of innovation accelerates. * * * * Adoption of the mortal races by the divine. [U]~ 30,000 y.a.[/U] Youngest Neanderthal remains found. * * * * Neanderthals go underground to survive the grinding ice. Over time they are accepted by Mharg, Mother of Mountains, and become dwarves. [U]~ 16,000 y.a.[/U] Glaciers retreat. * * * * The Primordials are locked away, defeated or assimilated. [U]~ 7,400 y.a.[/U] City of Eridu founded in Mesopotamia. [U]~ 5,100 y.a.[/U] Narmer unites upper and lower Egypt. * * * * The beginning of the three empires. The three empires are consolideated. Stygia, Acheron and Thracia are the great mortal powers. [U]~ 3,200 y.a.[/U] Bronze Age collapse. * * * * Something goes seriously wrong. The empires fail. Literacy is lost, as is much magical learning and information. [U]~ 2,500 y.a[/U] Roman Republic founded. [/QUOTE]
