Before the Empire the continent was a collection of small feudal kingdoms and independent city-states. The decades before the rise of Darameus saw a period of continual low-level skirmishes between these powers, each vying for small gains in material or mineral wealth.

Once Darameus claimed the throne of one of the more stable city-states, Merebia, he began a 20-year long campaign to expand his power-base by assimilating (through force or treaty) neighbouring kingdoms. Upon defeating the last city-state, Draco, the continent was finally united under a single rule and became the home of the Merebian Empire.

The capitol city is called “Merebia” and is located on the east coast of Dominus. It is surrounded by numerous and impressive villas and estates.

The people of Dominus are still referred to as Merebians as homage to the centre of the Empire, even though most people can actually trace their lineage back to other kingdoms and states. The Empire continually reinforces that, regardless of origin, all the people of Dominus are "Merebian".

Merebians are considered the most cultured people of the human races and possess many of the traits of the other human races but in a more balanced proportion.

The forests of Dominus are still home to many other “fae” races such as centaurs, satyrs, dryads and treants. However, as the Empire cuts down these forests for timber and to build settlements, these “fae” races are becoming far more reclusive and have mostly retreated to other lands such as Erganth or the Elven kingdom of Lyrazante.

Physically, Merebians are dark-haired with tanned skins. Many Merebians have “Roman noses”.
