History



3000 BCE - First people arrive in Sample ** During this period of history the first humans migrated to what is Sample today. The people that first arrived were hunter gatherers that lived in small family groups. The people in Sample lived in this way for thousands of years.

**100 CE - Empire** In 100 CE the Samplian Empire arose. This empire survived for hundreds of years. The Samplians spread their technology and ideas through several terrirotires and came into control of many different peoples.

**700 CE - Empire Falls** In 700 CE the Samplian Empire fell to outside forces. After the fall the Samplians fell under the control of several different invading forces. Each group left its mark on the Samplians culturally.

**1500 CE - Europeans Arrive** Portuguese explorers came to ths shores of Sample around 1500. They came in search of treasure and land, they found both in Sample. Despite a friendly welcome, the Samplians would soon come to hate the Portuguese.

The Portuguese set up a colony in Sample that lasted for over 200 years. During this time the Portuguese took most of the treasure out of the region, used the native people for hard labor, and pitted ethnic groups from one another. It was a dark time for the Samplians that would affect them forever.
 * 1700-1912 CE - Portuguese Colonization **

In 1912 the Samplians overthrew the Portuguese government and took control of their own destiny. However, the years of control by the Portuguese and other groups before them had not prepared the Samplians for independence. In the years that followed Sample has been torn apart by civil war and ethnic strife. They have in the past 20 years though, created a government that has attempted to be fair and stable. This is a goal that they are still working towards, but will hopefully reach soon.
 * 1912 CE - Indepenendence **
