Year Pre-0: Tribes of Baeliand (Government Type: Tribal)
Thousands of years ago, groups of Elves, Humans, Dwarves and Orcs flocked to a region West of the continent. They first landed at the Bay of Baeliand to form settlements. The entire lands of settlements came to be known as Baeliand. The different races were hardly distinguishable in features: Elves and Humans looked identical aside from Elves having slightly pointed ears. Dwarves were slightly shorter and stockier than Elves and Humans. Orcs were similar to Humans but had a genetic propensity to have scaly skin on some parts of their body and face. Despite the diversity of the lands, the different races live segregated from each other, in their own regions living by their own customs. Each race had a Tribal Leader who oversaw the customs and laws of their race and also resolved major conflicts. Inbreeding was extremely rare and looked frowned upon. Hence, the Tribes of this time period were based on the 4 different races.

The OrcCapital Dynasty (Year 1 - Year 1945)

Year 1 - Year 1206: Imperium of OrcCapital (Government Type: Absolute Monarchy)
Over time, powerful Tribes consolidated groups of Baeliand settlements and became known as Great Houses. They developed the land and employed people in those settlements, with the Great Houses that controlled larger lands, often leasing portions of their lands to smaller Houses, that became sworn bannerman, obliged to aid them in war. 4 regions were eventually formed (Anglo, Americana, Russo, Germaniaxis), with a Great House leading each one. The capitals of each region were established as LondCapital, YorkCapital, MosCapital and RhineCapital. The most brutal were the Orc Great Houses. With brute force, Julios Ceasar of House Ceasor unified the Orc Houses and subdued many Houses of the other races, forming the first Kingdom of Baeliand. He established the Monarchy's seat of power as OrcCapital (known today as AxeCapital).

He expanded the Imperium to the Anglo region, through the Conquest of Anglo (Year 43 -96). Under OrcCapital rule, Anglo became an important province of the Imperium of OrcCapital, with its own governor and changing the capital name to Londorc (known today as Londaxe). The Orcs introduced their language, laws, and customs to the native Elves and Humans, but were widely rejected. They only built towns, temples, and public buildings in areas with Orc settlements. They also established a system of taxation and administration mean to divert resources from the Anglo region to the Germaniaxis region, though that did open up trade links with other parts of the Imperium. King Julios Ceasar ruled till the year 641.

King Jesus Ceasar succeeded his father. By this time, society had transgressed into a largely feudalistic society, with peasants serving nobility of the houses in a serfdom relationship (slaves). Peasants lived in the outer skirts of cities. Peasants were prohibited from attacking nobility of any race, unless at a time of war. Peasants were also prohibited from owning land. King Jesus was killed in a war in the year 1206. His only heir was his daughter. As females were not eligible for the throne, it passed to another Royal Orc House, House Khan.

Year 1206 - Year 1902: Khanate of OrcCapital (Government Type: Absolute Monarchy)
King Gengheese Khan ruled from the year 1206-1644. He expanded the Khanate through the Invasion of Russo (1206-1279). During this period, there were 25 Main Houses of this time. 3 Orc Houses, 3 Human Houses, 17 Elven Houses (9 High Elven House, 6 Dark Elven, 2 Wood Elven), and 2 Dwarf Houses. The four main regions were administered by the Great Houses within them, with the OrcCapital Monarchy exercising external diplomatic control over each region (except the Americana region that has not yet been conquered). There were the Anglo region (predominantly High Elf Houses, Human Houses and Dwarven Houses), the Russo Region (Predominantly Wood Elf Houses), the Germaniaxis region (Predominantly Orc Houses), and the unconquered Americana region. The most brutal wars ocurrred under the

Year 1902 - Year 1945: Realm of OrcCapital (Government Type: Absolute Monarchy)
Under the rule of King Adolve Heidler, with his 2 sons, Prince Mussolini Heidler and Prince Hirohito Heidler, the OrcCapital Monarchy started to become more fascist, and utilized the other races as their slaves. They viewed themselves as the superior race and rightful rulers of the land. Their reign of terror intensified when they started conducting cruel scientific experiments, killing and raping populations of other races. This eventually led to Baeliand War I and Baeliand War 2 (which overthrew the OrcCapital Monarchy). The deadly war resulted in the deaths of 30% of non-Orc Population, and 70% of the Orc population.

The AxeCapital Dynasty (1945 - Present)

Year 1945 - Year 2024: Kingdom of AxeCapital (Government Type: Monarchy)
Lord York Axelrod was proclaimed the one true King, taking AxeCapital (formerly OrcCapital) as the capital of the new Kingdom of AxeCapital, with King York Axelrod as its supreme political and economic leader in charge of the Kingdom’s internal and external affairs.The Head of the three Great Houses that helped overthrew the OrcCapital government were declared Dukes of each of their regions (which were established as Duchies). The 4 dukes were the Crown Prince, Robert I Axelrod of House Axelrod (Americana), Duke Grigory Andolov of House Andolov (Russo), Duke Charleston I Rhoades of House Rhoades (Anglo), and Duke Michael Prince of House Prince (Germania – formerly Germaniaxis). The feudalistic social hierarchy was abolished, with peasants given the same status as nobility. This not only increased the marriage rates among different social classes, but also among different races. The economy also started to thrive. When the Capitalism geared Duchy of Americana reaching superior economic levels, the other Duchies began to envy Americana. This eventually led to the rebellion against House Axelrod. and the capitalism ideology. It was a war driven by ideology namely, Capitalism, Communism, Socialism, and Facismm. It was dubbed as the Capitalism Convergence War, in which House Axelrod prevailed and solidified their rule over the Kingdom. All major cities were renamed to contain the denoym 'Axe'.

Year 2024 - Year 2550: Royal Federation of AxeCapital (Government Type: Semi-Constitutional Monarchy)
Each state was empowered and given the authority to administer its own state affairs, the King is the one with the power to appoint, approve or remove the Heads of State, government positions, and other officers in the Federation. This meant the nation was ruled as a Semi-Constitutional Monarchy. With House Axelrod in power, the capitalism ideology expanded across the nation, making the Federation the economic powerhouse that it is today. King Robert I Axelrod was not just a great leader, but also masterful strategist and combatant having participated (and won) in many wars. Even during his father's reign, he was widely respected. Hence, during his reign, no one dared to challenge him, and peace across the Kingdom was strongly preserved. This allowed the nation to focus on the economy and become the economic powerhouse that it is today.

Year 2550 – Present: Federation of AxeCapital (Government Type: Constitutional Monarchy)
The people of the Federation pushed for democratic elections. King Robert II Axelrod obliged, bringing the Federation into a full constitutional monarchy. President Franklin Underwood was elected as the first President of the Federation. This age marked the Federation's colonization of planets and moons within the solar system.
Aside from the Federation's mainland on Earth, the Federation also owns many territories within the solar system.
