====== Timeline of Calabria ======

A timeline of known events in the history of Calabria and it's world. 

====== Prehistory ======

Circa 2000 YA - Doloreaux arrive in Calabria, possibly the first thinking species to arrive, possibly from Avami. Possibly this is speciesist propaganda. 

Doloreaux enslaved for three centuries. They are freed by a hero Bruge, who rules for a long time. These legends as enumerated by a priestess Clairmunda become the basis of Lutarism. 

Circa 1000 YA - Phelans arrive. Rinaldi are probably on Calabria by this time already, as are the Avoirdupois, who claim to have been first with 12 families coming over one year, and seven the next.

20 year Phelan civil war

Don Jon Rinaldi, the 10th Don, founds Triskellian. Beginning of the Age of War. Doloreaux go to war tirelessly with their neighbors to expand their territory against those they see as more advanced. They move to attack Triskellian, but are prevented from marching south by the Chevenaise.
