It would also imply that all the people that the Ashen empire killed came back to life in the Broken Empire.

What I want to know is, where is Agartha?

Most other nations have historically-referenced contact in-game (Arco and Bandar Log, Abysia and Ashdod, etc) or are specifically references to real-world areas. Agartha seems to be an outlier there.

The name "Agartha" originates from India--could they have had some contact with Bandar Log/Lanka?

Also, it would be nice to have LA Caelum and Arco have references to conflict between the two, since Caelum is Zoroastrian-themed. Perhaps LA Caelum could have some human hoplite units, referencing the Greek mercenaries who fought in the Persian civil wars (Xenophon's Ten Thousand).

Or that there were 100's of years for the lands to repopulate after the Ashen Empire was abolished. Presumably the new Ermor (perhaps populated by re-immigrants from satellites) keeps with the Ermorian traditions/trappings for political expediency, although explaining the legionnaires might take some doing.
