Balchrin Empire

The empire of Balchrin was created in the city of Verdehlus when the human and halfling peoples came together to bridge their communities on Telchur 19, 1132 EA. Balchrin, however, was just the island continent from which the humans and halflings came from. Their empire would eventually reach new shores.

In 561 IE, the Balchrin Empire discovered the island continent of Camaros, finding the nations of Shajara and Duros at war. Over the course of two hundred years, the empire brought the two nations together to unite under a common flag, that of the Balchrin Empire.

In 863 IE, the Balchrin Empire dissolved the nation of Dothas into the Camaros confederacy. Then, while the nation of Strumas mourned the loss of its leader, Balchrin seized control of the nation in 912 IE. The installed leader, Jonn Highguard.

In 952 IE, Lord Gregor Alainon, a commander in the Balchrin Imperial Army, turned against his country and formed a rebellion against it. By 958 IE, Alainon and his army defeated the Balchrin Empire, driving them out of Camaros. Camaros was declared a sovereign country, with Alainon becoming king.
