HISTORY
Long before Lhazar was an independent kingdom, it was a small island colony of the ancient nation of Kalinor. When the terrible meteor storm of Skyfall struck the continent of Ikharos, Kalinor was destroyed, along with every other civilization on the continent. The island colony of Lhazar was plunged into darkness and chaos for over 1,000 years. What emerged from this millennium of barbarity was a small human civilization that began to rebuild itself. Over the next several centuries, the Lhazarians built up their island; safe from the bands of raiders, who were running wild all over the continent raping and pillaging.
About 1,500 years ago, the kingdom of Lhazar was founded by a powerful Iskari noble House, which became the Iradi Dynasty. As the years drew by, Lhazar became a strong regional power in its own right. The Lhazarians built fleets of ships for purposes of trade, not military conquest.
