History
Pre-historic Poldarias
The earliest evidence of humans on Poldarias are footprints found to date from 500,000 years ago. In addition to these footprints, other evidence located has been concentrated in the southern regions and the Great Plains due to their more hospitable climate, with the earliest inhabitants being hunter-gatherers. Low sea-levels meant that Poldarias and Palosia were attached to the continent of Segoa for much of this pre-historic period, and varying temperatures meant that the islands have not always inhabited.
