Liôsol (Liosolessa: Dan Lixosol), officially the The Kingdom of Liôsol, is a country located in Miraria.

Etymology

The name "Liôsol" comes from the words "Laoe Setole" which means "New Setole." There have also been claims that the name of "Soltenna" comes from a misheard form of the form "Setole." These claims are backed up by the existence of the massive Liosoglo Empire.

Ancient Era

Island Trading

Between 40,000 BCE to 37,000 BCE natives of the island Setole engaged in trading with the early people's of present-day Soltenna and

Migration from Setole

While it is relatively unknown, most historians suggest the sinking of Setole happened sometime between the two major migrations to Soltenna with most settling on around 33,000~ BCE. At that time a great earthquake shook the island of Setole and surrounding areas, causing destruction all around. The famous poet wrote in 28,000 about the event:

The skies screamed and the waves cried as the earth tilted and Setole fell from her place in the sea. Not a day passed before the island had been recalled by the depths; her last people barely escaping.

Refugees from the Setole migrated from their island home to popular trading areas in Soltenna, trying to establish a new land.

Early History

The Northern Journey

In an event known as "The Northern Journey" a large portion of the native Setolas began moving North along various rivers, reaching Lake Soltenna around 19,000 BCE. Those that stayed behind integrated into society and stayed in Southwest Miraria until the Letsatian Empire conquered the area. The Setolas' first interaction with Sitr people was peaceful and they were taught valuable farming techniques while there.

Unification

In 8,391 BCE conflict began to grow between the Setolas and the Sitr people. Eventually this conflict grew into a war. The Sitr people, who had lived in the land long before the Setolas, wanted them to leave because they were draining food supplies. For the first time in history the Setolas, a society that truly lacked true leadership, unified under a makeshift army and attacked their enemy. The Setolas won and managed to push the Sitrs either North towards Hux Kham or across Lake Soltenna into Riyana.

First Kingdom

In 7,584 BCE, General Tola was crowned emperor of the Empire Liosol.
