Historical Summary: The Raveranians were originally indigenous group of people that were free until the year 1106 when The Holy Empire of Thelianon (The HET) swiftly conquered them and subjugated them and began to oppress The Raveranians. Although they were exposed to the technology of the modern era, and soon advanced alongside Thelianon after catching up to them thanks to the HET government’s interference, The Raveranians had a specific and unique cultural identity that they maintained even whilst oppressed. This resulted in them having ethnic divisions and tension with the Thelianonese and other Ethnic Groups in the Empire. As a result of Raveranian calls for independence in 1413 after more than 200 years of oppression, the Raveranians were hunted down and declared enemies of the state and mistreated even further, having next to no civil rights.

It wouldn’t be until 1527 that The Raveranians formed a revolt and began to riot against the government, causing massive uprisings and encouraging other ethnic groups that were oppressed to riot as well. Many ethnic groups rose up against the government as The HET was weakened following an assassination of the Emperor in 1525, resulting in the 7 year old Heir being crowned the new Emperor of Thelianon. Raveranians fought long and hard for their independence before finally managing to be free as The Holy Empire of Thelianon collapsed in 1598.

The Raveranians now simply called themselves ‘Raveran’ after their homeland and were a nomadic group of people. Raveran wandered the tropical rainforests and tundras of the continent Gondwana before coming upon a small bay. They quickly found an abundance of natural resources in the mountainous regions, food from the rain forests, fertile soul from the water and forest rivers, and lots of natural resources in general. They quickly organized themselves into place, setting up a government and appointing the Raveranian leader as the first Raveranian Emperor.

The Empire of Raveran was then formed and it has expanded province by province afterwards, with the people electing Senators to represent them in The Raveranian Senate Council. The people began to settle into the land and populate, eventually reaching 35 million people in 2022.
