I'm very proud of the RP I've managed to make in TNP's Eras RP and I hope to continue. Like anything it's a process. I build off of what came before. A lot of Taijitu Prydania is in TNP Prydania. That being said? Prydania has grown in ways I never could have imagined when I wrote this article originally. This no longer represented Prydania so I did away with it. This is what you get for snooping :P
1500 BCE: Prydeinia has been incorporated into the Dunedain Empire. The Dunedain settlers and officials form alliances with local Prydeinian tribes to better administer the lands. A slow synthesis of Dunedain and local culture begins.
+
  
1527 BCE: A new Dunedain city is established on the banks of the Dark River. Its name, in Prydeinian, is translated as Beaconsfield, as its gleaming Imperial structures stood out as a beacon over the fields and the Dark River that surround it.
+
-Pry "The Deer Jew" Dania ;)
 
+
881 BCE: The Empire splits between East and West. Prydeinia falls under the rule of the western Meneltarma Empire. Minos revolts in the chaos following the split.
+
 
+
400 BCE: The Minosian Empire invades the Meneltarma Empire. Slowly supplies and troops are re-directed from Prydeinia, an outpost on the edge of the Empire, to fight the Minosians.
+
 
+
2 CE: The Minosian Empire overruns the Meneltarma Empire. Imperial officials and soldiers and evacuated from Prydenia to try and prop up the Empire's heartland. They never return.
+
 
+
2 CE-400 CE: The Dark Ages. The tribes that had allied with Imperial conquerors battle each other for power over the islands, and Prydeinia becomes fragmented. Imperial centres of authority fall into disrepair as the populace ransacks them for building materials over the ages. Beaconsfield remains, however, and serves as the centre for authority in central Prydeinia.
+
 
+
400 CE-1022 CE: The Age of Twelve. Twelve relatively stable kingdoms emerge among the Prydeinian Islands. Piracy emerges among the more sea-worthy nations.
+
 
+
Cyrinica
+
Krymu
+
Gatikus
+
Erie
+
Salidonia
+
Thule
+
Clois
+
Abythia
+
Ustio
+
Tarn
+
Eddes
+
Lios
+
 
+
600 CE: King Herald of Clois converts to Catholicism, completing the conversion of the Prydeinian kingdoms.
+
 
+
1022 CE: Vortgyn Angevis aka Vortgyn the Conqueror, King of Cyrinica, strongest of the twelve kingdoms, defeats the united armies of the Kingdoms of Krymu and Gatikus to bring all of Prydeinia under his rule. He is crowned in Beaconsfield as Vortgyn I Angevis, King of Prydeinia, Protector of the Realm, Defender of the Faith.
+
 
+
1044 CE: Vortgyn I Angevis dies without a legitimate heir, and the throne passes to his younger brother Tobias, who is crowned Tobias I Angevis. He is called "Tobias the Confessor" during his reign due to his extremely religious nature. Tobias creates the first Parliament, originally a council of nobles. Parliament ends up assuming a fair deal of power as Tobias focuses his time on the throne to spiritual affairs. Parliament's power would either grow or shrink depending on successive monarchs, but the precedent of a strong Parliament is set here.
+
 
+
1060 CE: Tobias I Angevis' cathedral in central Beaconsfield is completed, his Melios Cathedral, named after St. Melios of the Catholic Church. The Cathedral would be expanded over the centuries, and the Palace of Melios would be added later to house Parliament.
+
 
+
1067 CE: Tobias I Angevis begins to travel within his realm, leading communities he visited in prayer. Reports of miracles the King performs spread.
+
 
+
1076 CE: Tobias I Angevis dies. He is succeeded by his son Vortgyn who's crowned Vortgyn II Angevis.
+
 
+
1085 CE: The Catholic Church canonizes Tobias I as a saint.
+
 
+
1220 CE: King Andrew I Angevis forms the Royal Prydeinian Navy.
+
 
+
1351 CE: King Andrew II Angevis faces a peasant revolt. The Anarchy follows.
+
 
+
1351-1369 CE: The Anarchy. The country is thrown into chaotic civil war. A coalition of peasant armies and rebellious lords challenges the King's rule. The Settlement ends the conflict with the King making certain concessions to Parliament in return for the rebels laying down their arms.
+
 
+
1532 CE: The Age of Exploration. Two clusters of Prydeinian colonies emerge on the continent of Novmir.
+
 
+
1728 CE: The Myrorian Exodus. Prydeinian privateers and the Royal Prydeinian Navy take part along with Ozians and Eluvatarians.
+
 
+
1733 CE: Prydeinia, along with Eluvatar, Ozian privateers, and the Myrorians, topple the Pelagis Empire. Myroria is established.
+
 
+
1750 CE: King Richard III Angevis declares Prydeinian neutrality in Eluvatarian War of Succession.
+
 
+
1765 CE: The United Empire of Novmir absorbs the southern Prydeinian colonies, along with the Eluvatarian colony of Pelagir and the Ozian colony of L'Stuv Ozi at the end of the Colonial Wars. The northern Prydenian colonies remain under the domain of the King of Prydeinia as the colony of Canada.
+
 
+
1793 CE: New Oxphord is colonized.
+
 
+
1820 CE: Australis is colonized.
+
 
+
1836 CE: Queen Alexandria I Angevis condemns the Communist Revolution in Ozia and declares Madame Ousi to be an outlaw in any territory under her dominion. The Syndicalist Party opposes this and fields candidates for Parliament for the first time. They win a respectable ten seats.
+
 
+
1851 CE: The Novic Civil War begins, as the areas of the United Empire that were formally Prydenian colonies declare independence. Pelagir and L'Stuv Ozi join the Separatists after the United Empire sends troops against those that it still considers its lawful citizens. The Separatists form the Confederate States of Sovereign Dixie.
+
 
+
1852 CE: The Jaguar incident. Confederate delegates board the Jaguar, a Prydenian commercial liner, to meet with Prydenian officials in Canada. Novic forces board the ship and arrest the delegates. Prydeinia declares this a violation of international law and Queen Alexandria publicly announces her support for the Confederate cause. A Whig-dominated Parliament shares her sentiment and declares war on the United Empire of Novmir. The Royal Prydeinian Navy breaks the Novic blockade of the Confederacy.
+
 
+
1855 CE: Novmir ultimately cannot contend with a two front war and an armistice is signed. The CSSD's independence is won.
+
 
+
1858 CE: Parliament approves covert funding of anti-Communist forces in the Ozian Civil War. Syndicalist Party MPs are kept in the dark and the appearance of neutrality is maintained.
+
 
+
1898 CE: The Great War begins and Prydenia forms the Coalition of Carth with Eluvatar and Myroria.
+
 
+
1903 CE: The CSSD remains neutral, but passes the Logistics and Supply Act, helping aid the Coalition's War Effort.
+
 
+
1912 CE: The Haradrim Empire breaks up, ending the Great War.
+
 
+
1915 CE: The People's Republic of Haradrim is formed. Tories in Parliament demand the war be continued to crush the Communists. Whigs, who control Parliament, however, claim the war is over. The war-weary populace celebrates the decision.
+
 
+
1949 CE: Novmir declares they will pursue war with the CSSD if the CSSD continues to pursue a nuclear program. Prydeinia threatens to stand by the CSSD in the event of war. King Richard VI Angevis, however, offers to personally lead a Prydenian team in mediating the crisis and tensions cool.
+
 
+
1952 CE: King Richard VI Angevis dies. His son, the Crown Prince Richard, is crowned King Richard VII Angevis. He arrives on the throne with two sons. His eldest Robert, the new Crown Prince, and his infant younger son, Prince Andrew.
+
 
+
1977 CE-1980 CE: The Australis War. Natives in Australis rise up following the spiritual leader known only as The Menin. The Menin preaches the holiness of the native people and calls for the expulsion or slaughter of the Prydeinian foreigners. The war ends with the death of The Menin and the defeat of his forces.
+
 
+
1981 CE: President Elendil of the CSSD and King Richard VII Angevis sign a treaty with the United Empire of Novmir officially ending the Civil War. The CSSD, Prydeinia, and Novmir are officially at peace.
+
 
+
1981 CE: The Syndicalist Party declares a nation-wide miner's strike after Parliament fails to raise the minimum wage. The Tory government of Samuel Patterson falls as a result of the strike and the Whigs win a majority in the next election decimating the Tories. The Syndicalists become the Loyal Opposition for the first time in Party history.
+
Meanwhile Stephen Crofts, upon an honourable discharge from the Royal Marines due to an injury sustained in the Australis War, forms the Social Commonwealth Party. His party appeals mostly to discharged veterans such as himself who fear the perceived rising influence of labour unions and the Syndicalist Party, and remains small but newsworthy for the time being.
