Etymology

The origins of the name Azureria comes from the Azika word "Azuroia" meaning "Blue Land". The area has blue grass in the winter, which the inhabitants call their grass Azurio. The first recorded name of Azureria was a text from 105 AR by Solarian explorers recording the island name as Azureria after locals told them the name of their island.

History

Ancient Era (500sBGD-1GD/1000BR-500sBR)

Little recorded history is written and only surface during the end of the Era around 100sBGD. The first text comes from a historian called Alucio the Elder in the Olis Texts that wrote that "The Kingdom of Teliz controlled the island by a tyrant King Ildutas I and had made my nation very isolated from the rest of the world.

East Blue-Sol War

During the East Blue-Sol War in 1793-1795GD/1209-1211AR, Solarian Troops blockaded and bombarded the island to starve out the inhabitants of the island. The King of East Blue at the time, Alfonso IV, was an unpopular ruler, and had stored all the food in his palace to keep his noblemen and family safe. It resulted in the Royal Blue Army revolting and opening the gates of the city to Solarian troops on January 6, 1795. Only the King's personal guard fought to defend the palace, but was soon overrun by both Solarian and East Blue troops and captured the Alfonso IV in the palace. After Alfonso IV signed the peace treaty, he handed over the crown to the head of the House of Zayis, Xavier Nemo Zayis, with Solarian approval.
