History of Myaasia
Note: All timelines are approximate, as most of the historical records are lost.
First Era
The first era was the era of the immortals, dominated mostly by the Iylari and the Uruk-Hai, with their long lifespans to gain personal skill and power.
In the Elf-Orc-Wars at the end of the first era, their slow breeding-rates eventually caused the “lesser” races to grind them down with numbers.
The Timeline of the First Era
Second Era
The second era - after most of the immortals had died off in the Elf-Orc-Wars - saw the rise of quicker breeding races and unlife. During most of the era, the forces of life and unlife were in an approximate balance. Towards the middle of the era, the dragons with their tremendous power gained more and more influence, but in the Magewars, they faced the same problems as Iylari and Uruk-hai had in the first era: With their slow rate of breeding, they lost most of their influence. But it was the unlife that suffered the greatest defeat, loosing most of their strongholds and areas.

Third Era
The begining of third era was a time of unprecedented growth of life. This time, the fast breeding races like common men, goblins and lesser orcs saw a great dominance. With unlife forced mostly to the shadows and the longer-living races low in numbers, the dominion of the world was in the hands of the “common” races.
At the end of the third era, a large number of unlife swept over most of the world, killing millions in what became known as the Unlife Wars. They were eventually defeated, but large parts of the land remained under unlife control.

Fourth Era
Current Status:
During the Unlife Wars, all races suffered horrendous losses. Unlife was eventually defeated, but they still control a large part of the land and have a significant presence in others regions.
The people of Myaasia are slowly starting to rebuild their civilization.
