Gnome Holocaust

The Gnome Holocaust was a series of events that nearly wiped the Gnome Race (Gnomis Gnomis) off the face of Gielenor. These tragic events stretched from 313 (5th) to late 314 (5th), though it can be argued that it started with the expiration of the Gnome-Human Charter, in 298 (5th).

Gnome-Human Charter Expiration (298 (5th))
In the year 298 (5th), after centuries of oppression, the Tree Gnomes (Gnomis Gnomis Floris) and Stone Gnomes (Gnomis Gnomis Bouldis) were given the right to expand their empire, with the expiration of the Gnome-Human Charter, which had been set some 200 years earlier. Unfortunately, the Stone Gnomes of Arposandra had produced so much toxic waste that the weight of the Posion Wastes above their city was enough to crush it, wiping out the Stone Gnomes. With haste, the remaining Tree Gnomes quickly set up a small settlement on Karamja, christened The Gnome Port.

Karamjan Expansion (303 (5th) - 306 (5th)
In the year 303 (5th) the Gnomes officially took over Shilo Village and Shilo River, and thus controlled much of the trade activity on the continent.
