History
Ancient
Thousands of years ago, the cities of Xhaasa and Amisa were founded, south and north of the river Stanumn respectively. The two cities spawned many more cities as people spread out and conquered more territory. These cities were ruled by independent kings and queens and commonly went to war with each other. The city-states were bronze-age societies, with an extremely small range.
