World Timeline[edit]
Major events that have affected this world and the wider region that it lies within include the following:
- -1711: Near the end of the Vargr Pillaging, the proto-Ovaghoun conquer the world of Ikon.
- Over time, the local Vilani culturally overrun their Vargr overlords, reshaping the Ovaghoun Vargr into a distinct, almost hybridised culture.
- -55: The Mmoannikh Accords between representatives of Logaksu Vargr and Ovaghoun Vargr societies ends a series of conflicts between the two cultures.
- The Accords are rejected by the central Ikonaz government, leading to a shattering of the unity of the Ovaghoun.
- 175-191: The Julian War, which sees numerous attacks on Ikon, all of which fail in breaking the homeworld of the Ovaghoun.
- The Ikonaz become a prominent member bloc of the Julian Protectorate.
- Circa 723: The Association of Good Wolves, the current government of Ikon, encourages the emigration of the working (i.e. Irilitok Vargr) classes to other, nearby worlds -- going so far as to subsidise 70% of the cost involved.
- Circa 937-940: The Fellowship of Nobles, the current Ikonaz government, collapses.
- The Rukadukaz Republic is founded as the government of the Ikonaz Sphere in the aftermath.
- 942: The Julian Protectorate and the Hegemony of Lorean formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Protectorate.
- The Rukadukaz insist upon a 'buffer zone' of neutral systems between their territory and the Loreans.
