The land that is now Tierrador has been inhabited for thousands of years. The first few thousand years of the nation's history is typically grouped as "Imperial Tierrador." Though it is unclear who created the banner of which the Imperial Tierradorian states fell under, Tierradorian mythology states the existence of the Aonaali Empire. The Aonaal ruled the entire South Cronan peninsula, encompassing modern-day Tierrador, [[Istrenya]], [[Ceylonia]], and even parts of [[Alstin]], [[Arcerion]], and [[The Cape]], for close to ten thousand years. The Aonaali Empire was a theocratic state, with their main political, economic and societal beliefs stemming from an unknown monotheistic religious following, often leading to many disagreements with the various regions of the Empire. The Aonaali were believed to be extremely technologically advanced, leading to theories that the forefathers (or foremothers due to the matriarchal nature of the empire) of the Aonaal were actually a group of extraterrestrial outcasts who were exiled from their home planet to Earth, where they began the unknown religion to appeal to the natives.

The Aonaal was an absolute monarchy and a matriarchal society, ruled by a female monarch called the '''Woqala'''. While the Aonaal was an absolute monarchy, there has been proof of a legislative body forming sometime around 3600 BC. The official language was Ancient Aonaal, which historians today struggle to decipher the meanings of various Aonaal texts due to the texts being written in an unknown script. Many words from the various Abio languages were believed to have been derived from the Aonaal language. | ||
According to the various anecdotes and cultural myths, the Aonaal were an isolationist empire, and used many unusual socio-political elements in their day-to-day operations. Women were held to a high standard, and considered as the highest rank of Aonaal society, while men were usually considered to be second-class citizens, usually dependent on their wife or mother whenever it came to everyday activities. Despite this, many laws were put in place throughout the existence of the Aonaal outlawing many inhumane practices, such as slavery, torture, and sacrifice, with these laws being heavily enforced throughout Aonaal, the rest of the Imperial Tierradorian era. The Aonaal Empire was founded around 4000 BC, though it believed to have dated back to around 12,500 BC, and existed for over 10,000 years, where they then collapsed sometime around 1500 BC. The collapse of the Empire also brought along the disappearance of most evidence of the empire's existence. Because of this, the existence of the Aonaal before 4000 BC is a highly-debated topic throughout Tierradorian society, however, archeologists have discovered the ruins of many ancient structures, with various unique characteristics not linked to the Abio, Qabór or Tierrador Empires, leading to increased belief of the Aonaal's existence. | According to the various anecdotes and cultural myths, the Aonaal were an isolationist empire, and used many unusual socio-political elements in their day-to-day operations.
