It is contrasted with the [[Dawn]], which is what the migrations to the east that occured in the middle of the first revolution are called. The peoples of [[Gantolia]], [[Yammoe]] and [[Tarnaria]] are the descendants of the [[Dawn]].

The decline of [[Central Dantria]] and its rising rivalry with the economically successful [[Western Dantria]] and [[Wunnah]] led its government to consider expansion. General Panoe was tasked with conquering [[Leykarya]]. This was an unrealistic project, but it was used as a way to raise money and increase morale of the population. The project failed, since Leykarya was connected to the Continent by an isthmus that was fairly easy for them to defend. General Panoe realized that there is no easy way back through the Ouna. Duls Settlements were established, so that people can stay while small portions of them cross back. There was not enough food to go back, but there was enough food to stay. In other words, many people were stuck.

Both the campaign and the returning parties made it known that Ouna is crossable, albeit at great cost. This led to a number of people, including families of those who got stuck on the other side, to attempt the Ouna crossing.

Migrants from the New Dawn began colonizing sparsely inhabited regions, adjacent to Duls. However, their settlements began to suffer from regular raids of [[Teamatian chiefdoms]] and their progress deeper into the eastern part of the Continent was temporarily prevented by [[the Great Turtle]]. It was later discovered that [[Yammoe]] used its secret representatives to manufacture a conflict between the New Dawn settlers and the Great Turtle, meanwhile uniting the previously scattered tribes into a single force under Daur Megeg, a chief of one of the larger tribes. This led to the beginning of the [[Great Turtle War]] that lasted for about a century and became the primary reason for the formation of the confederation of [[Darda]], the goal of which was to defend and facilitate the colonization of the east.

The Great Turtle was partially defeated and partially dispersed through the [[Homestead]] when the state of Kartas struck a close relationship with [[Osa Nara]]. This allowed Darda to gain an important ally in its indirect war with Yammoe, that meanwhile used its covert operative group [[Puhntuss]] to create a puppet state called [[Xornerian]] in order to increase its foothold in the region. Puhntuss then instigated a number of conflicts in the region in order to keep the powers divided and busy.
