The Tribe Of The Osmax
The Osmax tribe was formed approx. B1E-10,000 by a group of nomadic hunters. The tribe was the first tribe to become a formal nation, the Kingdom Of Osmax, starting the first Era. The tribe originates from the Southern Area of the Region Umon, in the forests of demise. They became a permeant settlement, creating the then extremely small village of Opam, in the bay of Southern Umon. The tribe quickly became accustomed to hunting the region's deer, and small mammals such as possum, muskrat, and rarely beaver. The rigorous winters proved to be a challenge bringing disease every year, killing thousands throughout time. The rigorous winters proved tough not only for the Osmax, but surrounding tribes. Prolong periods of starvation, and trouble hunting enough food for the population influenced Max I to unite all the tribes into a Kingdom.
The Osmax-Arain Succession War - The Unification Of The Three Tribes
When young Chief Maximin decided to unite the tribes, he quickly began gathering his warriors, creating officers out of the best of them. After gathering his forces and waiting for a terrain strategical advantage, The Osmax-Arain Succesion War began on the 1st Of November, B1E-7 when Maximin and a force of over five hundred warriors stormed the city of Elardo. The Deno quickly surrendered to the Osmax, and word soon got out of the daring attack.
The Arain, a tribe in very similar strength to the Osmax, decided to not meet the forces of the Osmax, and now Deno head-on. Creating the tactic known as Guerrilla Warfare, where you attack an enemy and then quickly retreat, the Arain dragged the war out seven years using this tactic. Pillaging small villages, slaughtering men and women, chaining the children to slavery, Chief Hilthrope abandoned his city of Hildago, deciding to end the war he would have to attack the capital of the Osmax, Opam. On the soft morning of December 19, B1E-1, Hiltrope quickly advanced to what he suspected as the undefended city of the Osmax, but quickly found out he was wrong. Attempting to escape, Chief Hilthrope's force of six thousand men was surrounded by a very equal force of Maximin's men. Maximin's armies met Hilthrope on all flanks, eventually crushing his army and killing Hilthrope himself. The battle later became known as the 1st Battle Of Opam.
Entering the city of Hildago, Maximin calmly captured the city ending the Osmax-Arain Succession War. The war totaled around eight thousand deaths in total, reducing the population of the Osmax to around 16,000. The Deno suffered around three thousand, due to losses by the Arain, having a new population of 11,000; and the Arain suffered horrendous losses at 11,000, half of their entire population. Before Year 1 they had only 11,000, primarily women and children. Maximin after his coronation ceremony later apologized for these horrible losses.
