First Age of Osirion Empire (jan 21, 3470 BC – jan 1, 1498 BC)
Description:
Osirion is believed to have been founded around -3470 AR. At that time, most of the Inner Sea region was living in barbarism, as civilisation had yet to recover from the devastation caused by Earthfall in -5293 AR. According to legend, a prophet of Nethys called Azghaad unified the tribes living alongside the Sphinx River and established his capital at Sothis. He became the first pharaoh of Osirion, and he and his successors were revered by the populace as God-Kings.
It is believed that the ferocious spawn of Rovagug known as Ulunat was slain by Azghaad with the help of Nethys himself, after which Azghaad founded Sothis around the creature's gargantuan carapace.[4] According to one story, the threat of Ulunat played a major role in uniting the tribes, and after its death, they laid claim to its territory—a vast swathe of land stretching from modern day Rahadoum to modern day Katapesh. The borders of Ancient Osirion did eventually encompass all that territory, but there is little evidence to support the theory that the God-Kings ever used the slaying of Ulunat to justify their wars with their neighbours.[citation needed]
After Ulunat's defeat, Azghaad ordered the construction of a massive temple to Nethys that was completed in -3399 AR. Its dedication is generally considered the beginning of the First Age of Osirion
