[[Aster's expedition]] in the late 14th century brought Occidental explorers to [[Crona]] for the first time. While the [[North Songun civilization]] and other Cronan civilizations were generally enthusiastic about the potential of trade with the Occident, the unknown of a great and distant foreign power fundamentally shook the Varshani state to its core. Most historians believe [[Arzalism]] definitively took on many of its violent, modern characteristics during this time following centuries of conflict between sun worshippers and death worshippers. | [[Aster's expedition]] in the late 14th century brought Occidental explorers to [[Crona]] for the first time.

Thirty years after the arrival of [[Paul Aster]], the ruler Žuqul I issued the Great Edict of Žuqul in 1408, though there are significant chronological problems with the timing of this Edicts according to some historians due to the [[Varshani historiography#Žuqul problem|"Žuqul problem"]]. The Edict established the [[Arzalism#The_Death_God|Death God]] as paramount deity within Arzalism rather than [[Arzalism#The_Sun_God|the Sun God]], as the two had previously been co-equal paramount deities. While original Occidental scholarship suggests this was a novelty brought forward by Žuqul alone, new sources available following the [[Fall of Anzo]] have revolutionized Occidental scholarship on Varshan, and a majority now believe that it was the common belief among higher castes for centuries. | Thirty years after the arrival of [[Paul Aster]], the ruler Žuqul I issued the Great Edict of Žuqul in 1408, though there are significant chronological problems with the timing of this Edicts according to some historians due to the [[Varshani historiography#Žuqul problem|"Žuqul problem"]].
