The world was named 9dragons after its discoverer. Oporuto threw all their economic resources into the development of the new world, and spent their country into bankruptcy.

The Brestian surprise attack resulted in a brutal conflict known as "The Three-Year War." The war's outcome was essentially decided at the Baleares Naval Battle, in which a weak Vespanolan "Red" Navy miraculously defeated the mighty Brestian fleet. The war forced Vespanola to ignore its interests in 9dragons, and also created a new class of social elite, the Wartime Nobility. Due to social strife stemming from the Wartime Nobility's inability to adapt to peacetime, as well as growing control problems in 9dragons, the Queen issued the "Reconquista Policy" urging adventurous Vespanolan families to migrate to the new world and retake the land for Queen and Country. The game begins with your family, the new family, looking to find power, fortune and glory under Reconquista.
