What Happened Between

In Mirkheim, neither the Terran Empire nor the colony on Avalon exists but, in The People of the Wind, the former tries to annex the latter. Between these two novels:

the Hesperian Islands on Avalon are colonized;

the Coronan continent on Avalon is colonized;

Manuel I begins to build the Empire;

Ythri forms the Domain which incorporates Avalon;

Manuel II completes the expansion of the Empire;

the Merseian Roidhunate becomes a distant but growing threat.

A post over breakfast coffee. Back here soon.

Kaor, Paul!

And the real world Siege of Belfort during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71 helped to inspire Anderson in how he wrote THE PEOPLE OF THE WIND.
