History of Tumland

Prehistory

Tumland was dominated by hundreds of tribes spread across the land. However many of these early settlements perished due to difficult landscapes and 'The Ravage'. As a result, only the isolated and advanced tribes could survive. Tumland is a region that is believed to have been inhabited by various ancient tribes dating back thousands of years ago. The tribes of Tumland were known for their unique cultural practices and beliefs, including elaborate rituals and ceremonies that were performed to appease the gods and ensure a bountiful harvest. They were also skilled in various arts and crafts, such as pottery, weaving, and metalworking, which they used to create beautiful and functional objects for everyday use.

One of the most notable features of the tribes of Tumland was their social structure, which was based on a complex system of clans and lineages. Members of each clan were bound by a shared history and cultural heritage, and they worked together to maintain their traditional way of life. Despite the existence of rivalries and conflicts among the different clans, the tribes of Tumland generally lived in peace and cooperation.

Archaeological evidence suggests that the tribes of Tumland had advanced knowledge of agriculture, masonry, and other essential survival skills. In fact, they had the highest levels of animal husbandry for their time. They relied on these skills to support their communities and to ensure their long-term survival. In addition to their practical knowledge, they also developed a highly developed written tradition, passing down their history, stories, and beliefs from one generation to the next.

Despite their ancient origins, the tribes of Tumland have largely disappeared from the historical record, leaving only scattered evidence of their existence. Today, the few remaining descendants of these tribes continue to preserve and honour their rich cultural heritage, and they remain an important part of the region's cultural identity.

Ancient

Tumland's ancient era is a time of great exploration, discovery, and cultural exchange. During this period, the people of Tumland rapidly expanded their territory, explored new lands, and interacted with a diverse array of cultures and peoples. The ancient era of Tumland is generally considered to have begun around 500 BCE, as the people of Tumland began to develop more advanced agricultural techniques and to build permanent settlements. Prior to this time, the people of Tumland were nomadic, following herds of animals and living in temporary shelters. With the development of agriculture, however, the people of Tumland were able to settle in one place and begin building permanent homes and communities. This led to a period of rapid growth and expansion, as the population of Tumland increased and the people began to explore the surrounding regions.

One of the most notable achievements of the ancient Tumlandic people was their rapid exploration of two continents, Ecros and Sur. These vast regions were home to a wide array of different cultures, languages, and peoples, and the Tumanitun explorers were fascinated by the new lands and people they encountered. Over the course of several centuries, Tumanitun explorers travelled vast distances across these continents, mapping new territories, establishing trade routes, and forming alliances with local peoples. They encountered a wide array of cultures and civilizations, including Creeperopolis, Quebecshire and Corevilla. As the people of Tumland continued to explore and expand their territory, they developed a rich cultural heritage that included art, music, literature, and philosophy. They created intricate sculptures, vibrant textiles, and beautiful pottery, and their epic poems and stories reflected their love of adventure, exploration, and the natural world.

During this time, the people of Tumland also developed a complex religious and spiritual system that was based on the principles of Tumaniti. Tumaniti was a polytheistic religion that emphasized the importance of living in harmony with nature and the natural world. It was based on the belief that all living things were interconnected and that everything in the universe was part of a larger whole. The Tumanitun people also developed a sophisticated system of government during this time. They established a council of elders, who were responsible for making decisions and settling disputes. They also developed a legal code that was based on the principles of fairness and justice.

Despite these accomplishments, the ancient era of Tumland was not without its challenges. The people of Tumland faced many obstacles and setbacks, including wars, famines, and natural disasters. One of the most devastating events of this era was another widespread plague that swept through the region, killing countless people and wiping out entire communities. However, the people of Tumland continued to explore and expand their territory, building a rich and vibrant civilization that would endure for centuries to come. Their achievements in exploration, culture, and religion laid the foundation for the vibrant and diverse nation of Tumland that exists today.
