The Feudal Era is a period of history some two thousand years long that begins with the awakening of the Orcish civilization, the emergence of the Dwarves and the Humans, the discovery of the Gnomes and Woodland Elves, the birth of the Halflings, as well as the numerous conflicts between these races. This era is fraught with minor conflicts and is generally marked with periods of brief stability followed by political, military, and geographical upheavals that throw the balance of the entire realm into chaos. Considered in retrospect by one learned in the history of the Dominion, there is a stark contrast between the fragmented, war-ridden governance of IldRenn and the almost-idyllic stability brought about by the monolithic Dominion.
Despite the optimistic words that begin early accounts of the Feudal Era in early Eridal literature, the Feudal Era culminates in a way much more befitting of the general atmosphere that pervades much of its length. A continental war that precedes the arrival of the Dominion in Western soil is the act that closes the Feudal Era and opens the doors to the first period of history that is shared between Sekhar's East and West.
