Storia di Westeros 1. I Figli della foresta e i Primi uomini.



A Mapped History of A Song of Ice and Fire (by HotbrownDoubleDouble)

ca. 12, 000 years before Aegon’s Conquest
The First Men, invaded Westeros across the land-bridge from Essos, bearing weapons of bronze. In a futile attempt to end the invasion, the children used magic to shatter that land-bridge, creating the island chain known as the Stepstones. However, the First Men were able to reinforce by ship, leading to generations of warfare over the land.
The First Men were more numerous, larger, stronger, and more technologically advanced than the children, who tried to resist the invaders using their magic. It proved unsuccessful, however, and the First Men gradually pushed deeper and deeper into Westeros, establishing hundreds of petty kingdoms.

ca. 10, 000 years before Aegon’s Conquest
Signing of the Pact: After years of warfare, the First Men and children of the forest came to a standstill and finally agreed to a peaceful coexistence, signing the pact of The Isle of Faces. This pact gave the First Men dominion over the open lands and let the children keep control over the forested areas. In time, the First Men adopted the worship of the Old Gods of the Forest.
