    Conflict of the Seas
    Military action

    Avinia and the Failon Dynasty had a conflict over the control of the ocean on which both their capitols sat. Avinia's queen became convinced that as the Failon Dynastsy became more and more prominent, they would eventually want to take over the whole coast. The Failon Dynasty had been asserting more of a presence at their border. To prevent a potential take-over of the coast, Avinia blocked off some trading routes. After a few years of blockades, conflict, and no trading between the two city-states, they came to the agreement that both places would be better off with open seas and trade with one another.

    Giant Siege of Olhassi

    -2 BA


    The fall of nations
    Disbandment

    The Affliction caused so much destruction that the nations of Taifar collapsed. Natural disasters caused many people to become displaced (if they survived), and travel between cities was very difficult. This lead to each nation breaking down and dissolving as the world was thrown into chaos. People congregated in the safest places, which happened to be the capitols of each nation, Caelora, Temok, and Olhassi. What was left of these nations were these cities.
