The Continent

==Overview==
===Preamble===
The Continent was a large island of notable variety in its land-forms, creatures and people. Across cultures, differing religious sects account for the creation of The Continent in contrasting ways. Helmontan faith, for instance, asserts that The Continent (and all other land) arose from the contact between the first beams of sunlight piercing clouds and an expansive sea of lava. As clouds parted, they descended unto the lava to create oceans. 
===Prehistory===
In approximately 50,000 BG, it is thought that a period of adverse cold facilitated the first human habitation of The Continent through an ice bridge to the northern lands. Around this time, natural resources begin to fuel technological advancements. The Continent's immense geographic and climactic diversity resulted in vastly different rates of development. Those in the far north and jungle regions were typically more concerned with survival above the various niceties temperate regions enjoyed; due to frigid conditions and abundance of deadly predators respectively. Prehistory was characterised by tribal and brutish conditions, where lives were short and relations sour or nonexistent. Near the end of prehistory, the Northern Cataclysm reshaped much of the north of the Continent whilst wiping out 90% of the entire population. 
===Contemporary times===
Post 0 AG, wars remained prevalent yet standards of living improve vastly in particular locations. With the fusion of politics, greater access to technology and philosophy, suffering became a calculated and profitable market. Philosophy underwent considerable development alongside standards of living, as higher levels of affluence in particular areas resulted in vastly increased spare time that would have otherwise been spent ensuring ones own survival.
==Kingdoms==
