Well, my idea is that approximately 300 years before the game got started, the Aserit kingdom didn't exist in its current state; instead, they were loosely divided into five separate tribes.  Don't have names for all but one.<br/><br/>Basically, the tribes constantly fought each other, and every time someone gained ground over another, a third would show up and provoke them both with some audacious grab at land, ad infinitum. A constant, never ending fight.  Then along comes some outside nation (perhaps Theiri? That would explain why they are so hostile, and make the peace talks have a much more profound significance) that starts pushing around one of the tribes...<br/><br/>And the enx tthing you know, all the tribes are banding together because<strong> HOW DARE THOSE FILTHY DEVILS FROM OTHER PLACES THREATEN THEM</strong>. ANGER. RAGE.<em>KILL</em><strong>MURDER</strong><span class="bbc_u">RAPE</span><del>RAPE</del><em>BURN</em><strong>PILLAGE</strong><em>DIIIIIIEEEEEE</em><span class="bbc_u">INTERLOPERS!</span>(etc.,etc.,etc.,).<br/><br/>The tribes banded together, but first, they needed a unified leader... so the leaders of all the tribes got together, and had a grand melee. Last man standing was a man named Aserit. Because he beat all the other tribal leaders in the melee,  his clan became the dominant force, and he was put in charge of all the clans.<br/><br/>So, with this unified force, they were able to push back the enemy, reclaim lost territory, capture some new area, and prove to the rest of the world that<em>oh</em><span class="bbc_u">my</span><strong>fucking</strong><em>god</em><span class="bbc_u">these</span><em>guys</em><span class="bbc_u">are</span><strong>scary</strong>.<br/><br/>So after all was said and done, the tribes got together, and went... Ya know, we can accomplish a lot of cool stuff if we stop killing each other and worked together. Boom, foundation of the nation; named Aserit in name of the first warrior strong enough to unite their tribes.<br/><br/>Obviously, the current ruler is a descendant from the first Tribal-King.<br/><br/>Rough, I know, but that's my ideas thus far... thoughts? Opinions?
