/*The modern strain of Unuvi rice arose sometime around 6,000 Y. In the ensuing millenniums, it spread across Unuvun and throughout the Southern Rim. Around 7,000 Y, the Udàshe civilization developed in the Imperial Plain, and was heavily influenced by the cultivation of rice. Hsilas and kias soon spread to the island via trade with the rest of the Htaevic Rouge, and additional crops such as the tree-produced sicharas and plams were first cultivated here. The ièki also was domesticated sometime around 7,250 Y by the Aeridanish.*/
Ancient Unuvun was a period between approximately 7,000 Y and 8,000 Y, during which the Udàshe civilization first began to develop in the Imperial Plain. The Udàshe civilization was based primarily around the cultivation of Unuvi rice, though several other important crops and animals were introduced during this era.
History
From the 70th to the 72nd centuries, migrant farmers eastwards from the Southern Rim arrived in Unuvun and first began cultivating Unuvi rice in present day Fuakèsu. Maritime traders soon spread the rice westwards towards the rainy Hsuvei Plain and then northwards to the Imperial Plain, where settlers from the Southern Rim came into contact with and displaced the indigenous hunter-gatherers which had migrated southwards from Nohkta. During this time period, ancient Unuvun remained an illiterate society, though it had a strong oral tradition and began to develop a complex legal system known as the Seva.
The Seva Period
As farms began to sprawl over the Imperial Plain, small villages coalesced and and organized themselves around cheiftains in little states known as ihtums. The dozens of Ihtums on the Imperial Plain remained mostly peaceful until the Outwards Period. During the Outwards Period, trade with Nohkta and the Htaevic Rouge introduced new political and philosophical concepts into Unuvun, as well as technologies and techniques such as ironworking. The rapid influx of ideas led to several ihtums, most notably Chahti, Yivu and the Kijue Citadels to embrace a rudimentary form of democracy, polarizing the Imperial Plain and causing many of the cheiftains to band together in order to stop the spread of democratic ideas.
