Tana's Great Reunion

History

The humans, always eager for power were seeking places to conquer once the era of dragons was over, soon, they were united under a common banner and fought the elves and Dragonborn.   By the time the great kingdoms of the elves and the mighty Dragonborn realized the violence that inevitably follows the humans, it was already too late. The eyes of the human leaders fell greedily on the prosperous lands of the elves and dragonborn. The Great Reunion had begun and humans were here to stay.   Different tribal armies marched simultaneously west, and south; no land was safe. Unable to unite or react in time, the elven and dragonborn monarchs watched as human warriors swarmed and usurped their lands. The human race emerged victorious after years of bloodshed.   The elves blessed with keen eyesight and a great talent for archery. Their deep knowledge of the woodlands further complemented their deadly and silent armies, making them a force to be reckoned with, but their number lacking to face the army of the humans during the great reunion. The great reunion costing the elf dearly.   The dragonborn forces were driven to the desert, and the dragonborn leader realized there was only one way for his race to survive and prosper, and struck a deal with the Empire. They would surrender their lands and become members of Tana's empire, as long as they could govern themselves independently.   In victory, they showed mercy to the elder races. They dismantled the elven kingdoms, pushing them deeper in the forests. They left some degree of freedom to the dragonborn, mostly to avoid any civil war. forcing them to accept a certain form of dominion. The humans would have stopped at nothing, if conflict from within had not forced their armies to a halt.   This Great Reunion allowed the human to take advantage of the resources of the entire west, The Human peoples were behind their warlods in an attempt to improve their conditions. Having exterminated all the other kingdoms, the warlords turned against each other, each claiming the High Throne that would later become the Imperial Throne of Tana the one who managed to unite the humans and to claim the throne.   Having shorter lives to live than the other races, their old hatreds have faded, and they are now more receptive to other races. The vast majority of the population in the western forest are elves, keep what's left of the wood as verdant as possible, and humans grow to respect this. For years, wild group of elves fought a guerilla against the human army.   The founding of the empire changed the face of the territory as we know it, the construction of the great trade routes, and later aqueducts having brought much to the countries. Tana's empire has seen some dark ages, the internal conflict in between warlords to claim the emperor title were ferocious, and the newly conquered race often had groups of independentists more than willing to fight.
