Archive:History of Cananganam

The History of Cananganam, taken to include Pre-Asuranesian peoples such as prehistoric TBA and TBA periods, spans the 2nd Millennia BCE into the present day. Several periods predominated Cananganam, leading to dramatic shifts in the demographics of the region, with Cananganam historically having been a major power of the Eastern Asura, reaching as far west as Jute and to Letsia in the East, as far north as Atsiq and as far south as Yahara. The impact of Cananganam led to several developments of Boroso and Nagu as independent continents from the rest of Sahar.

The first settlement in Cananganam was Biktuva, having been founded in the 3rd Millennia BCE. The Cananganamese had believed in various deities, in a cosmopolitan fashion, seeing all Gods as just their own, with heavy distinction between the village spirits and the spirits of the land. The first people believed to have inhabited Biktuva were of the TBD culture, having influenced much of the Canamic groups that immigrated into the region by the 2nd Millennia BCE. Historical records of the earliest settlements are limited as much of the settlements predate complex writing in the region by a millennia, leaving much of their origins and their people to mythology.
