History


CE 15 - Roman naval fleet lands on the Eurasian islands, establish a thriving series of city states under the banner of the New Roman Republic.
CE 134 - Novæ Londinivm, located in modern day Kensington, declares its superiority over the loose conglomerate of city-states, and engages in a war of conquest throughout the northern island.
CE 156 - Novæ Londinivm formally seizes the northern island, and begins colonization of the second island.
CE 190 - Truro, a city in the far north, engages in a major war with the Londinivm Empire, and returns the balance of power.
CE 479 - First encounter with the Chinese. An era of great prosperity and trade ensues.
CE 890 - Treaty of Tiberius ratified by all Eurasian city-states. The treaty creates a unified Republic, the Respublica Unitas.
CE 1000 - Republic colonizers reach the Californian coast. The colony is destroyed, the culprits Native Americans.
CE 1421 - The Republic denies China access to its ports due to the wrongful imprisonment of eighteen Republic sailors. War ensues, and the Chinese takeover the southern island by 1456.
CE 1707 - The British Royal Navy encounters the island, claims them in the name of the crown.
CE 1715 - British expel the Chinese from the south, leaving them the uncontested masters of the Eurasian Islands. The Crown Colony of Eurasia is established.
CE 1745 - Revolution occurs in Eurasia due to percieved cruelty from the British governor. The major figure in the revolution, Livy Vibius Cato, declares himself king over the islands.
CE 1787 - The British attempt to seize the islands in the War of 1785. A standoff situation is established, with neither nation being able to defeat the other. The Treaty of Waltham Forest is signed, ending the war, but making Eurasia a British-dependant nation. Due to immense British aid to the nation, Eurasia celebrates their assistance by renaming the majority of cities and roads in the country to be more British.
CE 1870 - Eurasia disassociates from the British Empire, though strong ties remain.
