Origin

Early Period

Nobility Period

Unification of Eser speaking independent states

Modern day Eserrei began in its current form in 1694 following the union of the 7 independent Eser-speaking states of Kalo, Proleis, Burzinai, Etlan, Jovanai, Modil, and Sortinas These states often in competition with each other, found external threats to be the larger concern for stability and survival. Additionally political leaders in Kalo and Burzinai had begun having talks of what a single nation of Eser people would look like.


Unification started with the joining of Kalo and Proleis as one state in 1683. Proleis and Kalo were already allies with Proleis needing access to the sea and depending on Kalo"s strength militarilly. This was followed by incorporating Jovanai in 1685. The three states in union now went under the name Eserrei for the first time. with central government in Torunzidis. Burzinai and Etlan joined the union a few years after in 1690 leaving only the southern most states of Modil and Sortinas still independent. The eventually applied for union in 1698 and 1699 respectively.

Geography and Climate

Geography

Map of the Allied States of Eserrei

The physical landscape of Eserrei is quite varied when traveling west to east. There can be considered 4 main natural regions. Along the northwestern coastline is a moderately undulating coastal plain which is suitable for famring and development. The city of Erzytydys sits on the Etlan Bay which is a major seaport of Eserrei. North of the developed area the northwest region is densely forested of Douglas fir, ponderosa, redwood, and the giant sequioa trees.

The interior portion of Esserei before the mountains is a grassy plateau of river valleys that are very suitable for both agriculture and development. The 3 major rivers of this region, the Anatara, Fortis, and Laisten played a major role in shaping the geographic and econmoic fortunes of the Kalo and Burzinai states. The ease of travel through these river valleys allowed for the population to grow the quickest of all of Eserrei's states. The rivers often flood in the spring due to snow melt and a raininy spring season which is common. Fishing esepecially of Salmon is very common and plentiful near the coast of the Casarta Sea. To the north is where the upper Kyddis mountains dominate the landscape. The land here is far more rugged with deeper valleys and mostly rocky mountains making travel and development more difficult.

Mt. Pilotin

The largest of which is Mt. Pilotin which rises to 6,415ft above sea level and is located in the state of Jovanai.
