History
Prehistory (8000 BC-2500 BC) and antiquity (2500 BC-1000 AD)
The area which was settled by human beings around 8000BC, this group would create the neolithic civilisation of the Trksund would flourish until 2500 BC, when they disappeared and were replaced by a middle bronze age society know as the Venetian. It is unknown the origins of the Veltian with the only written record coming from the origins of Velyk polytheism which indicates that the Veltian came from somewhere in northwestern artemia. Organised into various city-states the Veltians were able to resist Anthal expansion and developed their own unique culture, Veltian philosophers were particularly important in the field of early astronomy. The Veltian continued to expand northward into modern-day Samotvelia and Seratof, coming into constant conflict with Anthal city-states over dominance of the north-west Eurybian. One of these city-states Barusta grew considerably and by 300 BC had established a far-reaching empire benefiting greatly from trade between kesh and Artemia. In 957AD the Veltian city-states formed a single unitary kingdom know as Veltia, however this was shortlived as Heltic empire invaded Veltia in 1022 AD
Middle Ages and early-modern era
during its occupation, Velselexo was significantly Helticized with migrants bring a new culture and language. As te Heltic empire continued to expand it came into almost constant conflict with the Powerful Anthal states, which began to raid towns and villages near the border and along the coast. To counter this the Heltic constructed a large number of towers and fortresses which can still be found throughout Velo. The Heltic monotheism never caught on in Velo in any large number and an attempt to ban Velyk polytheism in 1466 AD led to the Veltian revolt which after initial success was crushed, although it significantly weakened the empire. in 1511 the Heltic empire fell into civil war and the Eastern Heltic empire succeded it

Wars of the East
Immediately after it,s Succession, the Eastern Heltic Empire was warred upon by an alliance the newly established Kingdom of Seratof, Anthal states and Samot. The newly crowned Emperor Ubrulnyn was able to withstand the multiple assaults and dealt a heavy blow to the kingdom of Seratof at the battle of Rontely Ford on 2/5/1511, with this the alliance collapsed and the First War of the East was over, however 2 years later the Eastern heltic empire was again at war with the Anthal states and after its defeat at the battle of Sukyhabra it was forced to cede half of the Lovorian Isles to the city-state of Thalkpo, thus ending the Wars of the East.
Golden Age
The conclusion of the wars of the east left the East Celtic Empire maintaining its position of power in the central Eurybian that had been reserved by its predecessor. With the wars over, Emperor Ubrulnyn began to use the Heltic Navy to curb piracy coming from kesh and Eastern artemia. This campaign was highly successful and trade flourished bringing new wealth with it. at the death of Emperor Ubrulnyn in 1566, his son Emperor Paznergrat took the throne and began large building projects in gymnasia and sanitation, after his death in 1602 he was succeeded by his son emperor VarVaytYne who continued his building Projects and began Velic colonisation of the Eurybian isle which antagonised the local populations causing multiple uprisings.

Zones by altitude
Velo is divided into three major ecological zones by altitude.the first is the coastal zone, which features a Eurybian climate, with hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. The natural vegetation is Eurybian forests, woodlands, and shrubs. The coastal lowlands are part of the Tyrrhenian-Adriatic sclerophyllous and mixed forests ecoregion, in which forests and woodlands of evergreen sclerophyll oaks predominate, chiefly holm oak (Quercus ilex) and cork oak (Quercus suber). Some of the coastal lowlands have been cleared for agriculture, grazing and logging, which have reduced the forests somewhat.
There is considerable birdlife in Velo. One famous example is the bearded vulture.
From 600 to 1,800 m (2,000 to 5,900 ft) is a temperate montane zone. The mountains are cooler and wetter, and home to the Velyk montane broadleaf and mixed forests ecoregion, which supports diverse forests of oak, pine, and broadleaf deciduous trees, with vegetation more typical of Northern Artemia . The population lives predominantly below 900 m (3,000 ft).
From 1,800 to 2,700 m (5,900 to 8,900 ft) is a high alpine zone. Vegetation is sparse. This zone is uninhabited.
