Great Zarti Earthquake

The Great Zarti Earthquake was the consequence of a destructive tectonic process of three tectonic plates right in middle of the Great Bay. Hundreds of volcanic islands appeared above the surface of the islands when a huge cloud of volcanic material had finally disappeared.

The earthquake caused a havoc among the rinans of the Great Bay. Many thought it was the end of the world and many social systems collapsed because of it. This included a partial and even a complete collapse of Yiup, Grazu and Xareas.

This event is really important for the history of the Great Bay and Morsdom in general. It has opened a trade route between the East and West, reformed the religion Cult of the Fire Ball and enabled Nazas to dominate over Mixbrus and Yiup tribes.

The counterpart of the Great Zarti Earthquake happened on the Ure continent which also changed the lives of urdueks, for the better and for the worse.
