Human history

Prehistory

 * Humans originate in SE Miju
 * Oldest hominid discovered: Ardipithicus ramidus in SE Miju (4.2 MYA)
 * Most complete hominid discovered: Australopithecus afarensis also in SE Miju (3.2 MYA)
 * First anatomically modern humans: Homo sapiens in SE Miju (~200,000 years ago)
 * Earliest known stone-tipped weapons dated 279,000 years ago in northernmost parts of Matobo
 * Earliest evidence of humans existing at high altitudes dated 30,000 years ago in Lu'Wavzo Mountain range, Matobo.

Independent origins of agriculture: 1. somewhere around Mennefer? Seogwan (9,500 BCE)! 2. Central Sinju 3. Yahuimilco 4. Northern Cheongju 5. Gara 6. Northeast Yeongju 7?. Matobo? "con"-crops perhaps necessary 8?. Wokajoor?

Early civilizations: Mennefer Ancient Seogwan (2,800 BCE - 537 CE) pre-Cheonje civs Somewhere in Tagol Somewhere in Yahuimilco Somewhere in Northern Cheongju Matobo? Wokajoor? where else?

Mennefer
City-State Era in Mennefer (~3200 BCE to 2239 BCE): Early Egyptian culture, other MENA cultures(?) with Sumerian politics Ancient Dynastical period in Mennefer (2239 BCE to 26 CE): Ancient Egypt basically Classical period in Mennefer (26 CE to 714 CE): Ancient Egypt with cool technology Muslim rule in Mennefer (714 CE to 1299 CE): Early Muslim Egypt with Al-Andalus politics, but the Kemetists strike back in a !Reconquista

Seogwan
First in Seogwan (65,000 BCE). Prehistoric Seogwan (12,000 to 2,800 BCE): Prehistoric Mesopotamian cultures Meritocratic dynasties nationwide in Seogwan (2,800 BCE to ~0 CE): Ancient Mesopotamia (Assyrians, Akkadians, Sumerians, Babylonians, and Hittites are all here!) with Sumer as the regional power Agricultural collapse in Seogwan, dynasties dissolve (~0 CE). Seogwanese city-states shortly enter tributary system to Mennefer. A revolt in the Seogwanese city of Dingiri against tributes is met with the "Battle of Vindictive Sunrays" (537 CE), where all of Seogwanese city-states are conquered by Mennefer. From 537 to 714 CE, a period of great Menneferian influence, without Seogwanese city-states uniting. Muslim conquests in Mennefer (714 CE) mean Seogwan is de facto autonomous again, and it starts accepting refugees from the conflict, as well as Menneferian expats who do not wish to return to the homeland. Muslim Mennefer shortly sends diplomats and missionaries to the decentralized Seogwanese city-states. The nobility choose to convert to Islam (in order to not compromise the relations), the populace follows. The nobility also elects a caliph (820 CE) and the city-states are henceforth federally conjoined. From 1229 CE (the collapse of Muslim rule in Mennefer bringing immigrants again) to ~1600 CE, an era of peace and scientific progress. Literary and visual arts, architecture, sciences (alchemy and astrology are here!!). This ends with the earliest contact with Sinjunese nations.

Seogwan
Tosanese explorers discover Seogwan in 159X (TBD), (then later in 1628) settle in Maikh (city) and Masirah (Seogwanese islet near the bay's epicenter). Nukigurun's expansion to central Yoju c. 1640? (according to nation page). Šijen Emperor sees value in Seogwan's resources and access to the Red Yi Sea, wants to establish a fixed route, but is too preoccupied with other wars (Komosire?) to go the aggressive way. Instead he convinces the Seogwanese caliph to appoint one of Šijen's sons as the next caliph. This reinforces Nuki control of Seogwan, makes it the first colonizer. Also that means the caliphate's dynasty is henceforth Muslim Manchu until its collapse, which is epic on its own. Tosan returns to claim coastal Seogwan by force in 1675, has this epic gunpowder versus gunpowder war with Nuki that ends in a draw. Tosan exerts its influence on coastal Seogwan, Nuki on the mainland. Both powers are cooperating with common interests (profitable trade and combined political power). This makes Tosan the second colonizer. The Caliphate employs ideas from Sinjuan developments in philosophy and governance (public office exams!!), grows in wealth, makes significant and successful conquests in Aryadesh. (This is mostly for Seogwan to be good at life for once and for whomever wants Islam in central-east Yoju.) The Caliphate suffers from an economic crisis (TBD), loses grip on Aryadesh and other conquests (AKA shrinks to its normal size), is invaded by Basanreseri in 1796, who just obliterates everything. This makes Basanreseri the third colonizer and the most ruthless, bringing Seogwan to absolute poverty.

Seogwan
Seogwan will be forced to join the Contingents in Eulhae under the Basanreserian banner, with Mennefer (if controlled by an Allied power) likely as its enemy. The effect of Eulhae on Seogwan can decided later. It is only important that it suffers from many losses and damages, and receives post-war development aid from capitalist countries afraid of the socialist Menneferian rule (enter Namju with bases, or Jeongmi with espionage agencies). The Seogwanese Civil War (2007) will resemble the, in that a lot of global powers will support sides in unorthodox ways (previous Eulhae enemies being allies, socialists uniting with capitalists on both ends, for different purposes; all TBD!!!)
