General

After the death of Artur Hawkwing in FY 994, nobles all over the Westlands began to struggle for power, attempting to take his place. The result was the War of the Hundred Years, which destroyed the empire that Artur Hawkwing had built. The war lasted from FY 994 until FY 1117. Because of the war, a new calendar was adopted -- during the fighting, errors had been made in dates, and even the date of the end of the War of the Hundred Years was in some dispute. A new calendar was adopted in the FY 1135 (which is the generally accepted date, though, as with the date of the end of the war, this was also in dispute).

The new calendar was not the only result of the War of the Hundred Years. The nations of the Free Era faded away, and during and/or shortly after the war, twenty-four new nations arose. By the year 600 NE, nine of these nations had faded away, while yet another was lost to the Blight by the year 957 NE. The others still remain, along with three city-states.

According to Ingtar Shinowa, at the end of the War of the Hundred Years, you could ride from the Blight to the Sea of Storms and just keep passing from one nation into another, with almost no unclaimed wilderness (TGH, Ch. 10).
