They became good friends with their neighbors and trade abounded. The Astrovan people built many great cities, and from these cities came creations no player had ever thought possible, but one day a group of people whom the Astrovans considered allies, attacked and forced the Astrovan people off their land. And so the Astrovan people wandered for generations, before finding and settling in the World of Rathnir. Legend again has it that the Astrovan people used portals to travel between worlds.

Astrova was allowed to stay where it was and joined Alokhrad (state of Uldarash). Astrova prospered soon after this. Changing a lot of the town for the better, it soon was bigger than Eraqat (capital of Alokhrad) in terms of land and structures. On July 2, 2021 the Alokhradi Road Guild was set up by zTempestX. It's goal was to map all of Uldarash's roads. On July 3, 2021 Gamerblox2077 stepped down as Prime Minister appointing zTempestX as acting Prime Minister until another was voted in to office.

Language

The language has very easy to pronounce words, and grammar as grammar is in English is almost non-existing.
