Age of Might

1000-800 PC: Istar Dominant
Istar remains untouched by the Dragon War's ravages. Its trade standards now have become the de facto standard throughout the world.

1000-800 PC: Resurgence of Thoradin
Dwarves of Thorbardin reopen Thoradin and rid the city of the occupying ogres. Its proximity to Istar makes it a major manufacturing center.

1000 PC: Kender Treaty
Hylo allies with Solamnia.

980 PC: Thorbardin Opens Kayolin
Solamnia grants the dwarves mining rights in the Garnet Mountains, where dwarves found the kingdom of Kayolin and the city of Garnet.

967 PC: The Life Tree of the Hylar
The Hylar of Thorbardin begin delving the city of Zakhalax (also known as the Life Tree). Built inside of a stalagmite over the underground Urkhan Sea, the magnificent city is accessible only by boat.

948 PC: Hill Dwarves Rise
Thorbardin founds Hillow, an outlying community where the thanedom of Neidar live.

940 PC: Elves Withdraw
Silvanesti and Qualinesti become increasingly more isolationist.

910-825 PC: The Ogre Wars
Ogres expunged from the delvings at Thoradin unite to overthrow the dwarves, who appeal to the Knights of Solamnia for assistance.

850-727 PC: Trade Wars
Istar's trade standards anger the kender of Balifor, who begin a trade war with Istar. After years of failed legal and military actions against the kender, the Istarians sign the Kendermeld which exempts them from the standards.

673-630 PC: Istar and Elves Clash
Istar's expansion threatens Silvanesti's sea-going merchants, leading to the blockade of Istar. The Istarians appeal to Solamnia, which convinces the elves to allow Istar to sign the Swordsheath Scroll in the Elfmeld.

530-522 Kernen Skirmishes
Ogres from the Khalkist nation of Kernen threaten major trade routes, but Thoradin, Istar and Solamnia drive them back. Thoradin signs the Swordsheath Scroll, as well as the Dwarfmeld which is an exclusive trade agreement with Istar.

490-476 PC: Raiders/Greatmeld
Barbarians from Khur, Nordmaar and Estwilde raid Istarian trade caravans. Istar convinces Solamnia to attack the barbarians and then resign the Swordsheath Scroll.

460-280 PC: Peace in the Land
Istar, the center for commerce, tax and art rules all of Ansalon.

280 PC: World Righteousness
Claiming to be the moral and religious center of the world, Istar installs the Kingpriest. In their 'superiority,' the Istarians get caught up in the affairs of the world instead to those of the spirit and repeat the error of the ancient ogres: they suppress the individual in favor of the good of the corrupt priesthood. Silvanesti grows antagonistic towards Istar.

260-212 PC: The Temple of Istar
The Temple of Istar is erected by the world's finest craftsmen.

250-100 PC: The Corruption of Justice
Istar represses anyone who does not agree with their ideals. Elves withdraw into their forests.

118 PC: Manifest Virtue
The Kingpriest declares Evil an affront to gods & mortals. Anyone guilty of commiting a crime on his list of Evil acts, known as the Proclamation of Manifest Virtue, face confiscation of property and slavery or execution. Istarian priests begin losing their clerical magic as they become enforcers of corrupt laws rather than followers of the gods.

94 PC: Extermination of Evil Races
An addition to the Proclamation of Manifest Virtue by the Kingpriest makes it an offense to be an inherently evil creature and bounty hunter receive high bounties for members of these races.

80-20 PC: Istar's Clergy Dominant
All aspects of everyday life require the approval of the priesthood. Wizards, considered to be ungodly, are hunted. Priests of Istar lose all of their clerical abilities.

41 PC: The Turning Point
The Kingpriest begins plotting his ascent to godhood.

19 PC: A Siege on Sorcery
Encouraged by the Kingpriest, the people lay siege to the Towers of High Sorcery. The Towers in Daltigoth and the Ruins are almost occupied, but are destroyed causing no small amount of destruction. The Kingpriest grants safe exile to the mages if they leave the remaining Towers intact. The Tower in Palanthas is cursed by a Black Robe who flings himself off the ramparts, impaling himself on the silvery gates declaring that none shall occupy the Tower until the "Master of the Past and the Present" returns. The Kingpriest of Istar claims the Tower of Istar as his home, while the Tower at Wayreth remains with the wizards.

6 PC: Edict of Thought Control
The Kingpriest decrees that evil thoughts equate evil deeds. Priests use renegade mages to read people's thoughts; a reign of terror ensues.

1 PC: The Last Days
The Kingpriest wishes godhood for himself and to order the gods to do his bidding. On the Eve of Yule (the Night of Doom), all true clerics are taken from Krynn. Solamnic Knight Lord Soth is given the opportunity to prevent the coming doom, but does not complete his quest.

0: The Cataclysm
A fiery mountain is launched upon Istar, driving it to the depths of the newly created Blood Sea. The Temple of the Kingpriest itself is transported to the Abyss. Ergoth is split from the main continent and into two islands; central Ansalon is flooded created New Sea; the seaport of Tarsis in the south is stranded in the center of what will become known as the Plains of Dust. Balifor is inundated with water, which recedes creating a desert. All creatures hide in mortal terror.
