The Thunder Empire was run by the Thunder party, and often called Altotta. Thunderers were a political party, not an ethnic group; however, for its entire existence the Thunder party was run and populated mostly by people of the Kava tribes, which were descended from a mix between Pabaps and Subumpamese.
First Era
Second Era
The 2nd Era was the Lantern government, a cooperative empire between the Crystals and the Thunderers with neither side having a monopoly on power. Many people moved in both directions during this period, but there were no true cooperative nations; every nation within the combined Lantern Empire was either a Crystal nation or a Thunder nation, whatever the makeup of its people. All of the Crystal nations were contiguous with each other and were mostly in the south and west. All of the Thunder nations were contiguous with each other as well and were in the north and east.
Late in the Lantern Era, a people of mixed Laban and "Thunder" descent invaded the Crystal part of the Empire and carved out a new empire of their own which they called Dreamland. The Thunderers did not fight back against the invaders.
Third Era
During the THird Thunder govt, they were conquered by the Crystals of Baeba Swamp. This govt lasted about 80 years.
Fourth Era
They declared independence from the Crystals in 3844, but it was because another foreign empire, Dreamland, had invaded and pushed out the Crystals. The much more numerous Thunderers actually contributed little to the war because their military had been almost destroyed during the Crystal govt.
Fifth Era
The Dreamers were overthrown in 3884, after exactly 40 years. The new govt was the first to use the name Thunder since the pre-Crystal govt of t=he early 3700s. The THunderes were very racist and nationalist, saying they had been dominated by outsiders for 120 yrs and had been the bottommost class in their own nation during that whole time. Tehy enslaved almost all Crystals, and put all Dreamers in a type of slavery that was far more brutal than the slavery enforced on the Crystals. STW arose during this era.
However, in 3919, the govt was overthrown yet again, and replaced with a milder version of THunderism. They repudiated racism, freed all of the Crystals, but kept the Dreamer slavery going because they considered the Dreamers a threat and the Crystals to merely be rivals.
