Eras

The 'eras' in Mundu 's history are periods of time defined by important events (much like real life). To date, there are 5 eras, each varying in size. Eras shouldn't be confused with 'ages ', as they are different time periods, and are defined differently. The start of an era is an exact date in histoy, while an age has rough edges and can differ from country to country. For a list of ages and their real-life equivalents, click here.

Era 1:
The start of era 1 is marked by the earliest recorded history on Mundu. At this time, early civilizations had not invented the calender, so the exact date is only an estimate. Era 1 officially started at year 1000. It ended on year 1560. The reason that era 1 ends on this date is because at this time the Steel War had started. Era 1 is currently the shortest era yet at only 560 years. Within era 1, Jaffretti became the first official country. Also, metalurgy and blacksmithing were discovered.

Era 2:
The start of era 2 is marked by the start of the Steel War and ended at The Split. Era 2 officially started on year 1561 and ended on year 3750.
