History
While the history of Xaxas has been lost, it is believed that the Xaxas kingdom was first discovered by pilgrims of The North, seeking refuge from their ruthless leader. They discovered the continent and were promised salvation by the one who guided them there. His name was forever lost through history.

The land was given the name of Trefos, which meant 'Forest continent'. The land had no borders for many years. Eventually, factions disagreed with each other and formed borders, soon creating the many small and medium sized countries of the continent. Xaxas was founded from the belief that one family should rule the lands, and that compassion will bring greater peace.

Over the ages, many kingdoms have tried to claim land from Xaxas such as the Dunstane kingdom. However, the political stability of Xaxas and its forward-thinking society won many wars with advanced technologies and unorthodox strategies. Kingdoms that have attacked Xaxas and lost have been invaded or colonised.
