Morkilus: Go right ahead. Most of what I posted is easily gleaned from the descriptions of the various units and nations and what is not is either on the forums, or in the case of the paragraph marked as speculation, just that, based on Dom2 history and a little bit of creative license with a what-if scenario.

RZ: EA basically starts at the point when Ermor embarks on the conquest.

Thank you Edi, that was most helpful, and I definitely think that this description should go into the Wiki.

Interesting! This is totally a matter of opinion and flavor, but I had interpreted LA Man very differently.

"Man too suffers under a curse [unleashed by the vengeance of the last Sidhe?], with nearly all of the old magics drained from their lands. But unlike Ulm, the people of Man have risen to the challenge; instead of becoming a broken nation infested by secret cults and vampiric lords, they have found new strength through nonmagical education."
