Etymology
History
Prehistory
In the 10th BCY, Chiöq was primarily inhabited by various Pre-Dun peoples, living mostly in fishing communities around the coast or rivers. The harsh desert interior of Chiöq meant that populations were fairly low throughout prehistory. In the 7th Century BCY, the Dun peoples would begin to migrate from their homeland in central northern Huo, and settle throughout the majority of northern Huo. In Chiöq culture, this is the beginning of the age of myths and legends, with various mythical kingdoms and heroes said to have existed during this time. The Chiöq calendar begins during this time, with the start being placed at -398 CY, the mythical founding of the Xiaar state.
Ancient history
Chiöq remained mostly fragmentary throughout its early history, largely made up of petty states that would sometimes war with each other and depended on the Surwooq Empire for bronze. After the bronze trade within Huo collapsed in 132 CY, large amounts of the bronze smaller states had access to disappeared. This would lead a handful of states to fill the power vacuum and consume those unable to replenish their resources. Chiöq would eventually be dominated by 4 major states, (list), though even these states would begin to have their resources dwindled by the growing threat of Central Dun nomads, who would disrupt inland trade routes under the Suaagia Empire. The Central Dun peoples would overwhelm the undersupplied Chiöq states with their superior iron weaponry, and would conquer the region in 328 CY. Chiöq would remain under the rule of Suaagia until 537 CY with the outbreak of the Red Sand Rebellion, where (something happened). After the collapse of the Suaagia, former allied kings would begin to turn on each other as an era of war and chaos ensued. Famine was common and conflict between neighboring states even more so. The harshness of the era lead to the emergence of a movement of popular philosophers, who would provide spiritual guidance and answer questions of the world. As their popularity grew, they would begin to open various schools across northern Huo, and gathering exceptional numbers of students.
