Well. It's this time of the year again. Here are my entries for World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards 2024, the annual event to pick the best of the best piece of worlds, maps, timelines, and articles. This year I've been working on my main country's timeline and a map, which I'm so proud I put these upfront. I hope you love it!
I also worked on an chronicle of this world, but sadly this category, Time and Space, have been cancelled due to having not enough submissions. For your personal enjoyment, be sure to check it out also.

History
When one man's desire turned into one of the most powerful nations in the world, it's going to have an interesting story.

With the chronicle-like format, the background changes overtime with reigns and so on.
