History[]
As the home world of the Amiaeria, Sainte-Église has a rich history of wealth, plenty, events and conflicts. Various cities were once ruled by monarch and kings that often disputed over territories, borders and land.
Among the greatest and most promising on the planet is Avignon, a fortress city located near the coast and well protect by natural barriers. Known for its wealth, wisdom and reference to the mythical Qo-Oh this city was often seen as a neutral place to meet.
Within the city the mythical and legendary Scion Qo-Oh would visit the local Amiaeria, give those gifted with a pure heart its blessings. People from around the globe travelled towards Avignon for a chance to visit the temple and perhaps get a glimpse from a Qo-Oh. Sadly, like with many things jealously proved to be the undoing of this special relation. After a terrible attack at Avignon and a partial burning and collapse of the temple, the Qo-Oh fled the city and took the sky, never seen by anyone since then. Scientist claim this event occurred around 480 BQF. Saddened by the loss of one of their most referred Scions, the people around the globe stirred upon and disposed their kings and monarchs and managed to unify the planet under a single government, the Republic of Église.
Sadly the Qo-Oh never returned even though the temple was repaired to its original appearance. Even since the Amiaeria began to thrive together, gaining technological advances, building new cities and eventually managed to go to space. For years the planet remained a mystery though opened its doors to outsiders when the Amiaeria signed the Treaty of Fornaeria in 02 AQF and became members of Rambo Nation.
