Phadean Empire

The Phadean Empire was an empire that expanded throughout the eastern portion of the Continent. It was the successor entity to the Republic of Aphadea before separating into various warring states after the collapse of the Empire in 1450. The Empire's importance to the world extends through its calendar which is used throughout the continent in which the First Phadean Emperor Riniciy I set the calendar to Year 1 with his coronation.

The Empire expanded from Cape Storm to the south all the way to Raffles Island to the north. It expanded into Eria all the way to what became the Wylan Highlands. It's eastern border was stopped by the Great Dry, though some adventurers claim there are Lost Kingdoms far to the east. This has never been proven. The northern and southern halves of the empire was separated by the Hassani Desert which, while traversable, provided too much difficulty for land travel, leading to the majority of trade taking place by sea. The northern half of the Empire later became Corinth while the southern half broke into many small fighting states eventually reuniting into the Phadean Confederation.

The influence of the Phadean people is so expansive that ethnic Phadeans make up the majority of the population of both Corinth, Wylie, and Avalon as well as most of Eria.

The ancient capital of the Empire is Aphadea, which houses the Red Sepulcher and the Principal of Aphadea, the head of the Sepulcher of Light religion. The city also serves as the capital of the Phadean Confederation and is a major trade port in the Southern Sea.
