Prevalka Period

The Prevalka Period was a time in the Riverlands history before Hillclan had gained it as a region in the Second Era. During this time, trade and unity throughout the Alenchan River Valley flourished and brought about great religious movements and changed many governments of the various kingdoms throughout the region. Religious icons such as Springpaw and Lightfall questioned the morals of cat and what it means to follow the will of ''Starclan. ''Ideas that challenge the pre-established powers of kings had also been spread as governing ethics for a moralistic, theocratic, and other types of governing styles had been spread to scholars and daily workers alike.

While political conflict did rise during the Prevalka Period, especially during a time when the established powers were being challenged, nothing rose more than a protest. This was due to the layers of defensive pacts each kingdom had upon one another. Traditions of family lines and honor had made sure that if kingdoms were overthrown or attempted to attack one another, they would be overwhelmed by their allies. This lead to a time where multiple layers of deterrents would prevent conflict until external influences in the Third Era changed that with the ''Great Coalition War. ''
