In-Universe/Canon Lore
Main Page: Earth World Lore

''The Canon or In-Universe Lore is the standard lore contributed, agreed, and established by many players throughout the Earth World period since Earth World 1 and 2. Other sources or articles that includes contradicting dates or events is considered either Semi-Canon (depending) or Non-Canon.''

The world takes place towards the height of a VERY DIFFERENT Medieval Era than that of our timeline, in 1150 AD (almost 400 years after the events of EW4 in . In Ew4 (760 to 775), the world entered the Medieval Age (Early Industrial/Rennaisance-equivalent in OTL, "Our Time Line") when skyscrapers and many other things were built to advance society. However, despite disputes, the height of the Medieval Ages would include further advancements, mainly in infastructure and a economic transition into mercantilism and capitalism from original "socialist and communistic" systems of sharing wealth.

The World between periods has became slightly more stable, yet would Empire of Starym (Late 760s- present), became the fifth official "Praetor Empire" that developed a close relationship with Araga? Union. While, the Starym Empire mass-developed it's territories closer together and experimented on domestic and economic systems, Araga Union had focused it's development and it's infastructure onto Vasque and also became amongst the richest factions. Cities like Istra became new travel hubs and centers for economy, transportation, Cities akin to Syra as More of a Hub of Culture focusing on it's architecture instead, and life as the idea of small settlements faded for urban development. Other Factions were present, yet isolated from most of the world as Europe became a center for civilization rather than North America. Many Tribes and minor petty kingdoms formed (reference to 6 player limit) by this time.

In North Africa the Gherensi Jabriliph was overthrown by his own son who established the Legionnarius di Atlas and establishing himself as Imperator. Algiers on the otherhand carried on developing as one of the world's greatest cities despite the nation's extremely low population.

World Rules

 * Inclusion of Rules on the Main page
 * 36 days would equal to 1 year in game, this is to ensure more realistic connections to time and world development (Such as a faction can last for ~60 years rather than ~10 years in game). To get the current year, press F3 to get the current in-game day, and plug that in the following equation: Year = floor(Day/36) + 1160

Regions
(Europe Provinces Map as of EW3)
 * Mediterranean: The Mediterranean zone is a roofed forest biome with mushrooms, dark grass, and large dark oak trees. This zone lies around the Mediterranean, as the name suggests, as well as around the Sea of Marmara. Oddly, roofed forests can also be found in Australia and South Africa.
 * Region of South Italy: Southern Italy, including the islands of Malta, Sicily, and Sardinia, are rampant of ecological destruction by Imperia and other nations before it. While its roofed forests still exist, many parts of it have been destroyed and burned for development and expansion of Syra and Istra. Other abandoned settlements, such as the Praetor Camp, have been reclaimed by nature. A major feature of South Italy is Mt. Etna, a volcano next to Syra that reaches heights of over 50 blocks tall, and is an active volcano.
 * Milanesa: Divided from south Italy by the Roma Mountain Range, Milanesa is the flat valley that houses the City of Istra. In the past, Milanesa was home to nice lush forests and no human contact, as it was isolated from the world due to the Alps. As Istra was constructed, the forests were cut down to make way for the city. Today, most of the valley is flat plains covered with roads, and skyscrapers tower next to the mountains. Venice has been almost completely terraformed, with terraced hills with farms covering the land. The Imperial government has since realized the extent of its ecological destruction, and is now beginning to preserve what remains, including the Slovene Nature Reserve, east and south of the city, and is planning to construct parks to recreate trees in the area.
 * European: Most of Central and Northern Europe (excluding the Mediterranean and Scandinavia) is a regular forest biome with oak and birch trees, and ferns. However, in Ukraine there is a Great Plain that is an exception to this typicality.
 * Mountains: Large, spiky mountains cover many parts of the world. These mountains can go up for 115 or more blocks and include the Andes, Himalayas, Alps, Rockies, Persian Mountains, etc.
 * Great Afro-Asian Desert: This desert area is large and expansive, and is divided by the Suez Canal into the Sahara and Great Asian Deserts. Called the Desert of Deserts, it is home to varied environments, such as the mountains of Persia and Anatolia, the flat deserts of Arabia, Mongolia, Karakum, and the Sahara, and the mountains of Central Asia and Xinjiang.
 * China: The fertile region of China, cut off from the mainly civilized parts of the world by the Great Afro-Eurasian Desert, is similar to the European zone, as it is a regular forest biome.
 * Siberio-Scandinavian: The deep taigas of Siberia are a snowy spruce biome, as are the forests of Scandinavia. In the farthest north, there are no trees at all.
 * Appalachian: The Appalachian zone of North America, located on its East Coast, is a spruce forest similar to the Sibero-Scandinavan zone but without snow. West of the Appalachians, not much is known of North America.
 * Jungles: Many jungles lie throughout the world, such as in the Congo or in the Amazon. These jungles are densely forested and are home to a variety of large trees, as well as melons and coconuts.
 * Savannahs: In Africa, parts of Australia, Texas, and Argentina lie the Savannahs, dry grasslands containing acacia trees. These are the only places in the world where these trees can be found.
 * The Outback: The only known red sand biome in the world, the Outback is located in Australia and comprises the majority of its landmass. There are only cactuses and red sand in the Outback.
 * Antarctica: Far to the south, the remote and desolate continent of Antarctica is a dark, lifeless, and treeless frozen wasteland. It is a hard trek through, but at the very bottom of the World, beyond the South Pole, lies the Great Chasm. If one can navigate down the Great Chasm, access to the mysterious Outer World is possible.
 * Urban:Otherwise known is cities who cover a crap-ton of area are Altered Man-made places in the world where people live there are many examples of this biome

 * Syra: a beacon from the first Praetorian Empire and one of the first settlements of Man in the server and is the sister City of Lyvonis and Istra founded almost at the same time that has come under many nations since it's collapse after EW1 and is one of the few cities that is still very much the same culture since it's foundation and has stood the same even as other cultures fall and rise around it,it is often known for it's age and Terraces which is slowly expanding(and the fact that i bloody built it all) and the small man-made island near it
 * Lyvonis : The Beacon of Praetorian Civilization and eternal city ( for now ), that has always been under fairly Praetorian blood along with it's Sister City, Syracuse, both being founded on the same day and being over a year old.Lyvonis has shown massive development in EW2 and Late EW4. It was illegally raided and griefed many times in the old days before CoreProtect was introduced.
 * Talin : Being rather a young city, Talin has shown being in a bad position, but beautiful. Built a long time ago, the Eesti people (Fedex, Czin, Freezepond, etc) grew the city into the world stage, After The Great War, Fedex abandoned the city griefed, and Freezepond took it over to rebuild it in the name of the newly independent Tallinn Empire, it is currently a place for disputes between Araga and Starymglia.
 * Istra: As one of the oldest cities in the world, Istra was a relatively small city until EW4. Before that, it was a small farming village in Venetia, which was destroyed by Lolistan in EW2. Istra remained ruins until EW4, when Multi rebuilt it and began massive projects aimed to reconstruct and expand the city. Istra is the home of skyscrapers in this world, and has four huge towers in the city at heights of 120 blocks, 85 blocks, 60 blocks, and 60 blocks. It also has massive industrial resources, including the server's largest farms, and a subway across the city. In the future, Istra will continue to develop as it expands east into Croatia by creating national parks, west to create new railroad hubs and shopping districts, and south to build new factories and a dockyard district, as well as redevelop its already built up land, renovating skyscrapers with new tech such as elevators, and terraform its old farms into new parks, and complete the finance district, which will house 5 skyscrapers.
 * Hamburg: Hamburg is one of the oldest places in the Earth World. It was built by Pez and Ethan in the third earth world. Both of them worked on it to show that establishment was made during the world. There was a functioning railroad system throughout the city to take you through the places of the city. A skyscraper was also built in Hamburg. However, in the fourth earth world, LaksTun declared war on Hamburg and destroyed it. Later, other people wanted Hamburg for its strategic location, like Tomad and Mat. It is now a ruin, looted and destroyed. It will be under occupation.
