| The first of [[Terra]]'s ages, this is usually considered to extend into [[timeline of terra s pre-history|pre-history]] and include all the events from the planet's birth (5.25B) all the way through to the invention of iron (7.023B). This age is characterized by its lack of dense population centers and also its primitive technology. As the age progresses, populations started to grow and therefore interact, though such interaction was limited until much later in the age. Technology also progressed at a similar pace until the advent of the iron creation process, after which Terra would see a much more rapid progression of technological advances | The first of [[Terra]]'s ages, this is usually considered to extend into [[timeline of terra s pre-history|pre-history]] and include all the events from the planet's birth (5.25B) all the way through to the invention of iron (7.023B).

| - | Towards the end of the age, as the [[races#human]] population on [[Aimsir]] started to grow, structured societies began to form, and competition over resources started to produce tension among humanity and also between humans and the [[races#carragh]].

| - | During this age the [[races#baumeni]] and the [[races#ulfar]] are confined to the northern continent of [[Saoirse]] and also have only limited interaction with each other during this age. The baumeni, content to tend to [[the Weisewald]], did not venture out past its borders. The ulfar lived a very rustic life during this age, not bothering with agriculture or building structures until the very end of this age. They formed small to medium sized packs and engaged in a nomadic lifestyle, mostly hunting for food. Most of their free time was devoted to a ritualistic storytelling, developing a rich oral history over thousands of millennium | + | During this age the [[Baumeni]] and the [[Ulfar]] are confined to the northern continent of [[Saoirse]] and also have only limited interaction with each other during this age.

| - | The Iron Age begins with the advent of iron in 59.5M BCE, and the increased production of weapons. Wars and invasions were common place and lasted for hundreds of thousands and even millions of years. Conquest and re-conquest were common. Late in the Iron age, the inhabitants of Terra discovered the ability to bind their will, their Ki, to the elements and their own bodies. They eventually learned to harness this power for war, and this ignited the Great War, in which every nation and every race eventually joined into a global war which lasted almost five million years. The aftermath was a patchwork of smaller kingdoms, the remnants of the empires that spawned them | + | The Iron Age begins with the advent of iron in 59.5M BCE, and the increased production of weapons.

| The Great War left the war machines temporarily disabled, and there was a brief period of relative peace as nations rebuilt their armies, recruited talented binders, and built elite fighting forces. The assassination of Kalmar's king in 33M BCE is generally agreed to be the end of the Iron Age as it ushered in a new era of war primarily fought by binders and support regiments | The Great War left the war machines temporarily disabled, and there was a brief period of relative peace as nations rebuilt their armies, recruited talented binders, and built elite fighting forces.
