Hi guys, former moderator Purge here. We're always working on the present, but I'd like to work with you guys to develop the Overworld's past. Through my time here many past events have been brought up and it's always been a fun read for me to know things that happened in previous eras. The goal of this thread is to compile a record of things that have happened in the past, perhaps a few ages ago even, legends that don't add to the world's history and development but doesn't conflict with anything we have.
I'd like to start with more recent events. Our current Age began more than a century ago after the previous Cataclysmic Age ended. The founding of Medan (Now Meridian) could possibly be the first major event of the current era. One city in particular, Isra is only about 7 years old.
The current era is pretty much a reconstruction marked with the new countries rising to take the place of old nations that fell in the previous age or at the early stages of this one. The previous era was littered with back-to-back disasters which named it the Cataclysmic Age, this age lasted 600 years.
I will try to chronicle most of the major events that I can remember, if you remember something I forgot please tell me.

PC 1-Founding of Medan.
-Trogdor fights Fenris.
PC 103 -A citadel is constructed with the help of the Phoenix State and others in the Free Planes and the Free State is founded.

-The first Black Tower is made by Grandma outside Isra's walls.
-Isra feels threatened by Phoenix Imperium's armies mobilizing and an arms race commences between the two.
-Phoenix Imperium expands with the founding of Atlanticus, its territory wrapped around the northern border of Isra all the way to the sea, raising tension further.
-Gauldin forms friendship with Isra. The Norkari form a truce with Isra when the Phoenix Imperium mobilizes near the Norkari Mountains.
-Ivelius fades into isolation.
-The dragon Gravlor rampages across the land.
