History
Ancient History
The ancient peoples of Vermrike were skilled hunters, relying on their knowledge of the land and its inhabitants to procure sustenance. The tribes lived a nomadic lifestyle, following the migrations of their prey and adjusting their dwellings accordingly. They would erect temporary shelters using materials found in the environment, such as animal hides and branches. These structures provided protection from the elements and served as a gathering place for the tribe. While these tribes primarily relied on hunting and gathering, there were early signs of a transition towards limited agriculture during the later part of this period. They experimented with cultivating crops like barley and flax, taking advantage of favorable growing conditions near river valleys. This shift towards a more settled lifestyle would lay the foundation for future agricultural advancements in Vermrike.
The earliest written record from Vermrike, dates back to approximately 800 BC. This period marks the transition from prehistoric times to the beginning of recorded history in the region. The ancient people of Vermrike developed a script known as "Värmarún" to represent their language in writing. The Värmarún script consisted of angular characters known as runes, which were typically carved or inscribed on various surfaces, such as stones, wood, or bone. The language used in the earliest written records of Vermrike would have been an ancient form of old Vermish.
