They're no more than orders need to be for this. Apologies to JD; I had a lot of stories to sift through. I certainly did read yours, but I might have forgotten a few of the details. I will edit your section accordingly in the morning.
EDIT: I actually edited it tonight, but you know, it is technically the morning. Hope you like this section better. I'll be cobbling together a few historical maps, perhaps, a timeline, maybe, some interesting information on the cradle, and I might write a few stories of my own.
EDIT again: When would people like to have the next deadline?
Hopefully last EDIT: I forgot to note, though I think it was probably pretty obvious, that I'm using the three city system, to note particularly important cities. They don't necessarily confer greater power, just denote cities of especial importance.
Nope, another EDIT. This is what not reading the thread does:
I prefer to keep things generational, such as about 20-25 years, or 50. I think we can go with the baseline of 50-100, depending on what kind of stories folks write. We will be keeping this going at a nice clip, however.
Most of it is merely history. Worry not, few people understand it.
The primary source texts for this update were actually your own stories. Well, except for a few obvious little flourishes; the most ancient empire, for example, you hardly need worry about unless you want to have archaeological digs in the ancient era. I hope that with a possible new map, things will be much more sensical.
Sealed for approval.

How long will the updates be? 5 years? 10? 50?

But am I the only one who is thoroughly confused? There were so many names of past empires/regions, and I have no idea where which one was (so I cant reference them in stories) and I have no idea where current nations are now. A named map, north king, please!!
But, it wasn't too bad of an update. It was nice and simple. Although, the mentions of people I had no idea of was kind of confusion..
