Rothenstein Family/Caerwyn Timeline

A list of significant events which occured in Caerwyn, taken from Dwilight/Timeline, with additional notes from Sir Konrad. Note that the beginning of summer marks the start of each new year.

First Pentannual

The events beneath occured during the first five years since Dwilight's discovery; what some historians have named the Age of Colonization.

Year 1

Spring

• 2008-03-29 Madina - Leads successful colony takeover of Eidulb which will become Caerwyn. - And so, at the close of the first year of the colonization, Caerwyn's roots were sunk.

Year 2

Summer

• 2008-04-03 Madina Colony - City of Golden Farrow taken over. - An odd development given the distances involved, though one which would prove critical, given that which followed. Were two groups of colonists sent northwards from Madina? Must ask.
• 2008-04-07 Madina Colony - Renamed Caerwyn.
• 2008-04-09 Caerwyn - The city of Eidulb declares its independence.

Although it may not be relevant, note that at this time, Madina was also involved in a short-lived attempt to form a colony centered in the lands around Chateau Saffalore. Avenel lasted only a few brief days. What became of those colonists? Did some venture north?

Winter

• 2008-05-13 Caerwyn - Completes successful colony takeover of Chrysantalys to form Viridian. - Another strange development. Perhaps this is the period that Duke Tsuboh described, in which Caerwyn served as a stepping-off point for nobles wishing to found their own colonies. The western island is littered with their remains.
• 2008-05-14 Caerwyn - Declares war on Shadovar. - more information required. Shadovar, the result of the secession of Duke Edelstein Greneburie of Port Nebel from Pian en Luries, had declared war on Melodia, likely due to the latter's acquisition of Port Raviel. Those islands have a troubled history, indeed. Madina also declared war on Shadovar at this time.
• 2008-05-16 Viridian - Vesna Valentine elected ruler, name changed from Caerwyn Colony.
