= History =
== Nomadic Times (3700-1500 BC[before Cadreium]) ==
Back in early time the Catoalan state was originally a bunch of nomadic Catoal tribes that all worshiped Lysundra their deity goddess and their creator. These ten tribes 
# The Wandere (Wanderers): The Catoal known for their restless spirits and their affinity for exploring uncharted lands. They had vast knowledge of many different distant lands long forgotten to time and history.
# The Wendara (Windy Spirits) : These Catoal follow the winds, seeking hidden knowledge and ancient secrets. They were profound archers and mastered the art of Landar or gliding.
# The Sanoris (Sand Catoal): These Catoal were Masters of desert survival, they traverse vast dunes in search of oases and forgotten ruins and their knowledge within.
# The Lundrya (Moonlit): A Cult of Catoal Lysundra Loyalist that used moonlight that guides their nocturnal journeys. They preached the words and stories of Lysundra and acted as a pre faith church of sorts.
# The Dreweari (Dream Walkers): Storytellers and visionaries who weave tales around campfires under star-studded skies. They were profound in their ways of shifting and the traversal of Felinor.
# The Emfor (Ones who walk on fire): Their footsteps are said to leave glowing embers on the earth, symbolizing their eternal connection to the land.
# The Dearin (Deaf Catoal): Known for their heightened senses besides their lack of hearing, Communicating through gestures, they move stealthily across rugged landscapes.
# The Sanlo (Ones who own the sky): These Catoal were said to ride giant mythical beasts, soaring above mountain peaks and storm clouds. Said to live on the mountain tops of all the mountains in the world.
# The Miain (Misty ones): Catoal who wandered in between the mist and fog
# The Sulfiri (Sun Scorched): Their campfires burn with an otherworldly intensity, drawing travelers from afar. They were said to have great tales and were well known for their merchantry.
== First Kingdoms (1500-0BC) ==
On the rare blue moon two tribes came together, The Sulfiri and The Lundrya, These two tribes would be merged with the marriage of their heirs and settle into what is now known as the Le Purna region with its capital of Mork; this small kingdom would leave the stepping stones for modern Catoal society and would mark the first settlement of the Catoal. The small kingdom was ahead of its neighbors in technological advancement and knowledge gathering from their days as the tribes at a cost.  They lacked the civilized culture like the surrounding kingdoms from their tribal days. This caused the surrounding kingdoms to belittle the Catoal and call them barbarians. Leading to the first purge or wars against this new kingdom. The Catoal who are more knowledge driven weren’t ready for war leading to the creation of the first Catoalan military and training in the combat arts something that was relatively unknown to the Catoal. This was the first step of the Catoal fighting back against these purges which had devastated villages and cities. The Kingdom put out a call for aid in their time of need and with great losses three clans would answer the call for arms The Dearin, The Sanlo, and The Wandere. The Wandere who were great travelers spoke of a race of feline creatures similar to the Catoal they called The Zheivara, a race of noble warriors who traded training in their combat arts for knowledge the Wandere had. The Wandere would train this art to the other clans of the kingdom and the strength of the Catoal grew. This newfound strength would allow the Catoal to repel the purges completely even turning into Catoalan offensives and great pushes around the area. Eventually this new found era of peace and stability given to the Catoal under the leadership of King Teasal would lead to the call for all Catoal to come under the banner. The call was answered and the Cadreium was formed, a mighty state full of culture, a powerful military, and strong economy, a true superpower of the region. 
== Cadreium (0-864 BC) ==
The Cadreium period marked a significant era in Catoalan history, spanning an impressive 864 years of cultural, military, and economic prosperity. Emerging from the ashes of conflict and turmoil, the Cadreium flourished under the leadership of King Teasal, whose vision of unity and strength propelled the Catoal to unprecedented heights. At the heart of the Cadreium was a profound sense of solidarity among the Catoal tribes. United under a single banner, they forged a society that celebrated diversity while embracing common values and goals. This unity enabled them to harness their collective strengths and talents, laying the foundation for a thriving civilization. One of the defining features of the Cadreium was its commitment to knowledge and innovation. Building upon the legacy of the tribes, the Catoal delved into the realms of science, art, and philosophy with boundless curiosity. Scholars and thinkers flourished, pushing the boundaries of understanding and creativity. Their discoveries not only advanced Catoalan society but also earned them admiration and respect from neighboring kingdoms. 
Central to the Cadreium's success was its formidable military prowess. Drawing upon the martial traditions of the tribes, the Catoal developed a disciplined and highly skilled army. Through rigorous training and strategic planning, they defended their borders and expanded their influence, securing their position as a dominant force in the region. The legendary combat arts taught by the Wandere, passed down from the enigmatic Zheivara, became the cornerstone of Catoalan martial doctrine, inspiring awe and fear in equal measure. Economically, the Cadreium prospered through trade and commerce. Blessed with fertile lands and abundant resources, Catoalan merchants traveled far and wide, establishing lucrative trade routes and fostering prosperous alliances. The bustling markets of Mork, the capital city, became renowned for their exotic goods and bustling energy, attracting traders and travelers from distant lands. Culturally, the Cadreium was a beacon of creativity and expression. Artists, poets, and musicians flourished, their works reflecting the rich tapestry of Catoalan life and tradition. Festivals and celebrations abounded, showcasing the vibrant diversity of the Catoal people and strengthening the bonds of community. Throughout its illustrious history, the Cadreium faced its share of challenges and trials. Yet, time and again, the resilience and determination of the Catoal prevailed, ensuring the continued prosperity of their civilization.
As the Cadreium endured for nearly nine centuries, its legacy endured long after its eventual decline. Remembered as a golden age of Catoalan history, it served as a testament to the power of unity, knowledge, and perseverance in the face of adversity
== The Great Collapse (864 AC[after Cadreium]) ==
The Great Collapse, a somber chapter in Catoalan history, marked the tumultuous end of the Cadreium’s golden era. After nearly nine centuries of prosperity and unity, the foundations of the mighty state began to tremble under the weight of internal strife and external pressures.
As the Cadreium expanded its influence and territories, it also faced growing challenges from within. The once-united Catoal tribes began to fray along ethnic, cultural, and political lines. Disputes over resources, power, and leadership simmered beneath the surface, threatening to erupt into open conflict. At the same time, external forces posed a grave threat to the stability of the Cadreium. Rival kingdoms, jealous of Catoalan power and influence, sought to undermine and weaken their formidable neighbor. Economic rivalries, border disputes, and ideological differences fueled tensions, pushing the region to the brink of war. Amidst these mounting pressures, the leadership of the Cadreium found itself increasingly strained. Successive rulers struggled to maintain cohesion and order, facing resistance from ambitious warlords, discontented nobles, and disillusioned commoners. Corruption and nepotism seeped into the halls of power, eroding trust and sowing discord. As internal divisions deepened and external threats loomed ever larger, the once-mighty Cadreium began to crumble from within. Revolts, uprisings, and civil strife erupted across the realm, tearing apart the fabric of society. Economic turmoil and widespread suffering followed in the wake of conflict, plunging once-prosperous cities into chaos and despair.
The collapse of the Cadreium was swift and devastating. Within a matter of years, the proud state that had stood for centuries lay in ruins, its cities razed, its people scattered, and its legacy tarnished. The once-great capital of Mork, a beacon of civilization and culture, fell silent amidst the rubble, a poignant symbol of a lost age. In the aftermath of the Great Collapse, the Catoal found themselves fragmented and vulnerable, struggling to rebuild amidst the ashes of their former glory. The lessons of the Cadreium, both its triumphs and its failures, echoed through the ages, serving as a cautionary tale of the fragility of power and the importance of unity in the face of adversity.
== Modern Day ==
In the wake of the Great Collapse, from the ashes of the once-mighty Cadreium, emerged Resilnya, the last bastion of the Catoal's enduring legacy. Situated amidst the remnants of former glory, Resilnya stands as a testament to the resilience and spirit of the Catoal people.
Though scarred by the traumas of the past, Resilnya has risen from the ashes, determined to carve out a new destiny for its people. Led by visionary leaders who seek to honor the traditions of old while embracing the challenges of the present, Resilnya has become a beacon of hope in a world plagued by uncertainty and strife. Central to Resilnya's success is its commitment to unity and cooperation. Recognizing the folly of division, the leaders of Resilnya have worked tirelessly to bridge the gaps that once threatened to tear the Catoal apart. Through diplomacy, compromise, and mutual respect, they have forged alliances with neighboring kingdoms and fostered a spirit of camaraderie among their own people. Economically, Resilnya has embraced innovation and adaptation, transforming itself into a hub of trade, commerce, and industry. Drawing upon the lessons of the Cadreium, Resilnyan merchants have established lucrative partnerships with foreign powers, while artisans and craftsmen have revitalized traditional industries with modern techniques and technologies. Militarily, Resilnya remains vigilant against threats both foreign and domestic. With the memory of the Great Collapse still fresh in their minds, the leaders of Resilnya have invested heavily in defense, ensuring that their borders remain secure and their people safe from harm. At the same time, they have pursued diplomatic solutions to conflicts, seeking to resolve disputes through dialogue rather than violence. Culturally, Resilnya is a melting pot of tradition and innovation. Drawing upon the rich tapestry of Catoalan history, its people celebrate their heritage through music, art, and storytelling, while also embracing new ideas and influences from around the world. Festivals and celebrations abound, bringing together Catoal from all walks of life to revel in the joys of community and kinship. Yet, despite its successes, Resilnya remains ever mindful of the challenges that lie ahead. The specter of the Great Collapse looms large, a reminder of the fragility of peace and prosperity. But as long as the spirit of resilience burns bright in the hearts of its people, Resilnya will continue to endure, standing as a beacon of hope in a world filled with uncertainty.
