Tribes of the Age of Movement

During the Age of Movement, clans across the continents conglomerated into much larger structures, known as tribes, which held, defended and conquered territory.

While there were numerous, ten tribes held a dominion over the vast majority of the world's land area. These were known as the Great Tribes. Many of the largest and most successful tribes were divinely-united and -led.

Beghula
The Beghula tribe controlled the region east of the Red Ring, in the southwestern portion of Petrosa. Beghul claimed a territory spanning half of Petrosa, a claim that the tribe held as its military manifesto. At the time of the Red Ring Pact, it held the territory that would later become Bel and Cerdolia.

The nation-state of Bel is considered the direct descendant of the Beghula tribe. Cerdolia has a more bizarre history, whose control was constantly traded between Beghula and Orsand tribes and whose heritage was disputed, even after the Red Ring Pact. During the Opening of Gates, the deity Ecetri laid claim to it and distinguished it as its own people.

Orsand
The Orsand tribe held the northernmost part of Petrosa and was continually at war with Beghula, its largest and fiercest rival, over Cerdolia, Linon and various smaller territories.

At the time of the Red Ring Pact, it controlled territories that would later become Orsand, Linon and Cerdolia. Modern Orsand considers itself the same people that made up the Orsand tribe in the Age of Movement.

Maba
The first tribe to form, emerged in the Red Ring, between Petrosa and Irgaedera, and was drawn together by the partnership of Sorco, Goddess of Fire (known to them as Sor'o) and Celel, Goddess of Rain. Maba expanded westward, controlling almost the entirety of what would later be known as Irgaedera at its peak, and only slightly northward, where it was held off by Sola.

A good portion of this territory, it later lost to Orbon, which emerged suddenly in Orbon and swept the eastern half of the territory, including the Red Ring. Sola also captured its northernmost islands early in history. At its height, the Maba Territory spanned the entire region from Fetri in the northwest to Ptrao in the southeast.

During the Red Ring Peace, the Maba Territory lost Gatanis to a civil war of separation in AOG 58, becoming the present-day kingdom of Maba.

Sola
The Sola tribe is the second oldest, forming in southern Petrosa from the unification of various clans in the region, in direct response to the Maba tribe's encroachment on their settlements. Sola was not unified by a deity, and indeed was made up of the territories of numerus deities.

The region of Oro, once a part of the Maba territory, was captured and held by Sola for the final millennium of the Age of Movement.

Following the Red Ring Pact, the people of Sola came to know their lands as the Solan Territory, the second largest on Petrosa before its eventual collapse and fragmentation into Astra, Sonora, Onao and Aora.

Orbon
The Orbon territory was one of the largest and most aggressively expansionist tribes. It first emerged as a breakaway fragment of Maba and, under the leadership of the general Katnr, swept Maba's territory and claimed most of it for itself. It later became the countries Ro Orbon, Ro Gtero and Ptrao.
