Andu

The Andu are an ethnic group native to the island of Akaria.

History

Origins

Like other Akarian Cultures, the Andu descend from the Early Akarian People. Specifically, they descended from Early Akarian People who lived within the Thessda Range.

Dominance

Starting around 2400 TT, the Andu entered a period of great technological advancement and were soon the most advanced ethnic group on the island of Akaria. As such, they very quickly entered into a state of ethnic dominance on the island.

On 24-5 2045 TT the two largest Andu states, the Borra Kur and the Amba Kur merged into the Andu Kur. The remaining Andu states joined the Andu Kur soon after. This brought about the beginning of increased hostility by the Andu against the Weer, the Karinians and the Ald.

Decline

On 26-4 1791 TT, the Andu Kur launched a large-scale raid against various tribal groups of the Karin Plains. The Andu believed that the various tribal groups were working towards unification and attacked in an attempt to prevent it, this was not out of the ordinary for the Andu Kur. On 1-1 1790 TT, the Weer Nation launched an attack against the Andu Kur, using newly developed incendiary weapons. Seven days later, the Andu Kur diverted almost half of their forces from the Karin Plains to help fight against the Weer Nation.

The war against those of the Karin Plain ended on 11-7 1787 TT with the loss of the city of Kanda. The war with the Weer only ended on 6-6 1780 and was far more devastating to the Andu. By the end of the war, the Andu Kur were driven out of almost all of their territory that was not within their native Thessda Range.

In the years following the wars, the neighbours of the Andu constructed a large wall surrounding what was left of the Andu Kur. Andu outside of the wall was assimilated into other ethnic groups due to hostility from the other ethnic groups.

On 15-2 1110 TT, the Kingdom of Akaria, the Andu Kur's sole neighbour attacked the Andu Kur. King Urdono of the Andu Kur was captured by Akarian forces on 27-2 1105 TT and was executed in Aersdu on 7-3 1105 TT, bringing an end to the Andu Kur.

Imprisonment

Following the destruction of the Andu Kur, the lands of the Andu were placed under the control of High Director of the Living Army, Umanay Deram as the Warden of the Andu. Umanay began distributing

Enslavement

Following the destruction of the Andu Kur, the Andu became a slave race to the Akarians.
