Talk:Dwilight/The Far West/The Ancient History of the Echiur Dynasty/The Age of Dynastic Quarrels: Shifts and Changes in the Echiuraen Empire

Wow. I guess this could be... kinda accurate to the region... if it was written by a foreign scholar with a wild imagination... no offence intended by this, but the region seems to have been inhabited by the Zuma and other related tribes. Can I ask from what angle this history has been written? Colonist? Translation of local history? It could just be my personal bias, since I saw creating ancient rp kingdoms in the east was stretching things a bit especially since most of the locals were tribal people whilst it was the colonists who were a radically different people that were arriving in this strange new land. The fact that the western lands are very newly discovered and that the closest thing you could see as a duchy could be an ancient mezo-american city state is... some parts of it make sense, but the medieval imposition grinds against me a bit.

Too detailed to be a discovery of the past, so is it OOC knowledge we wouldn't know? As far as I see things, the map doesnt show the sophisticated ruins of the numerous kingdoms that suddenly disappeared, but rather the cities that could be once they get built up. Some places have ruins but not all are on a massive scale and all would simply be chosen since they are good sites for a city e.g. level plains, rivers, natural harbours, rich land, key strategic or commercial positions etc. Thats not what I have a discrepency with though, but rather the incredibly detailed and very western history on an area that is inhabited by tribes. Not looking at having this deleted, more why you chose to write it this way. --Aerywyn 10:43, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
