History

Pre-Incursion

Before the settling of modern Khemnukhen, this was the site of the city of Letopolis. This is one of the cities form the Oasis Expeditions which failed to create a self sustaianble economy. They were outcompeted by the cities Tartarna to the north and Khassa to the east as they provided better alternatives. Eventually the inhabitants whould leave the city abandoned and they would move either north or east.

First Incursion

During the First Incursion a camp was started here to provide travellers the supply to continue their travels. The Incursion had hired workers to create resources and had created what looked like an army camp. Nearing the end of the First Incursion it looked like a small village at the oasis.

Intermedium

The Quartermaster of the Incursion at the time had the grand idea of founding a city here at this oasis. He attracted loacal inhabitants to the city to help start the economy in the city. These were the Khem people who had developed alifestyle which allowed to live nomadically in the deserts. These people had been exiled from all of the near societies. The Queartermaster offered them his support and geve them the option of a permanent settlment for them. They accepted gracefully and were able to name this city Khemnukhen. This means 'A city for the Khem'. Over time this city grew from a local Khem city to an large multicultural city. This caused a shift from a Khem government to the new City Council. This would be a confederation of the largest ethnic groups in the city.
