During the period of 400-600 AS, a few particularly notable events, significant enough to make a lasting mark in oral histories, affected the nations and world of CivSim, as follows:

Global:

All across the world of CivSim, "barbarians" have been driven to rage by the expansionist maneuvers of the "civilized nations", and emboldened by increasing access to advanced weaponry. With these triggers, they have begun to push back in devastating raids by land and sea alike against frontier settlements from Akore to Litherian, and everywhere in between.

Local:

Devastating meteor strikes, similar in magnitude to the Tunguska event in the real world, caused untold destruction and loss of life in the nations of Citi and Krâng.

A severe hurricane (cyclone) afflicted the coastal regions of Obalaslavia with a great storm surge and extreme winds.

Important: If your nation was affected by a local event, you must either respond to this post with RP or submit a new post detailing the effects of the event on your nation within two weeks following the submission of this post. If you fail to do so, the event will have detrimental effects on your nation as determined by the big bad mods.

Special Exception: Aimerais will have two weeks from when she returns to write an RP post in response to the local event against Krâng.

While posts in response to a global event aren't strictly required, there will be spreadsheet benefits in store for those who do respond to the event within two weeks.

Also note that spreadsheet stat changes stemming from these events aren't strictly required. Their full effects on the nation in question are up to interpretation.
