History

The history of Talusi stretches thousands of years, to when people first inhabited the area, to modern-day.

Ancient Talusi

Ancient Talusi covers the time from when people first inhabited the land thousands of years ago, to when the Kingdom of Taluniko fell.

Early Inhabitants

Archaeological records show that Talusi was first inhabited around 10,000 years ago, or around 8000 BC. At first, the area was dominated by hunter-gatherer societies. Then, around 7000 BC, agrarian society began to become the dominant way of getting food. Around the coast, large scale fishing also began to become viable. For the next few thousand years, various early tribes rose and fell. Around 2000 BC according to archaeological evidence, the first notable tribes rose in western Talusi. These tribes were known collectively as the Tulako.

Early Settlements and Civilizations

Around 2000 BC, the Tulako people began to rise. They were the first historically significant tribes in Talusi. According to archaeological evidence, the Tulako were spread all over the western Talusi coast. Over the next thousand years, the Tulako began to spread across Talusi. Over time, the Tulako dominated various other peoples, such as the Ralpanur, the Talukanoki, and the Dremalti. Over time, larger groups of people began to gather and form larger settlements. The first large-scale settlement in Talusi to have been found as of now is known as Saalnau, and according to archaeological evidence, is around 2700 years old. Saalnau is located in southern Talusi and is known as the first city in Talusi. The city seemed to be the capital of a civilization now known as Rakluntania. This civilization spanned most of southern Talusi and even part of northeastern Hausberg. Around 500 BC, Rakluntania fell to an unknown enemy and Saalnau was abandoned. About 200 years later, another civilization rose known as the Denonert. This civilization occupied most of the Talusian north coast. In 157 BC, the Denonert came into conflict with another civilization known as the Taluniko. In 154 BC, The Taluniko were able to conquer the Denonert due to their better weaponry.

The Kingdoms of Taluniko

In 154 BC with the conquest of the Denonert, The Taluniko people, who are said to have been descendants of the Tulako people, established their own kingdoms. Over hundreds of years, the Taluniko people spread across Talusi, conquering and assimilating. By 479 AD, the Taluniko people had conquered all of Talusi.
