Zangar River Valley

A valley in the middle of the Rukiu forest, a huamanda forest in southern Karti, people started settling. While not much is known about those long dead people, we know they started growing the zubangai grain and different animals for food. They built they’re dwelling spaces on sticks in the water, building houses on them. On the hills who were not covered by water they built temples of stone. The clergy of those ancient temples were the first ones to write. They wrote about the gods they worshiped: huamanda, the god of the huamanda tree, being
crowned king. However, later records tell of the gods electing a new king, huwas, the god of metal working, to replace huamanda. This signifies a shift the people of the valley had at around 300 years since the start of civilization.
The people were working bronze, based of tin reserves and copper from the nearby desert. From that time, the people of the Zangar valley were using more
bronze tools. However, as stone tools were cheaper, they stayed prevalent way longer.
Around
that time the significance of Lanud was being seen. As a city in the center of the civilization, more trade was flowing to them than anywhere else, and as
they grew richer, many cities grew dependent on the riches of the city. However, Kirki did not. At the other side of the river, kirki was close to the
tin and copper of the desert, and therefore the military of Kirki was using only bronze tools. However, they avoided wars many times. But then temple
records from across the region show that around 500 years after the start of civilization, the city of Kirki, under the leadership of the first named kartinarian in history, nujog the bronze king, attacked Lanud, burned down the city and enslaved the population. Following this, the economies of the valley were deeply hurt, and Kirki became the capital of an empire, with the only known city that avoided they’re occupation being the far away Suji. 
However, the rule of Kirki was short-lived. 550 years after the start of civilization, the Kwatak nomads from the desert burned Kirki to the ground and soon all
cities became independent. Very soon the Kwatak started taking control of the region themselves, and 600 years after the start of civilization a Kwatak state ruled from the rebuilt city of Lanud.
