What is the history of Norrath?

[LittleRodent]

Well I guess the title says it all. I never really got anywhere on EQ1 and have never played EQOA, but one thing that I have always love about any game is depth and lore. I fell in love with the Legacy of Kain games, and even Star Wars for the lore and history alone, but when it comes to EQ, I know that the moon kinda exploded and thats about it :/I read the sticked post here but that seems to only really explain the creation of the land in detail. While it filled in a litle gap, I still hunger for more.I know this is asking alot, but is anyone willing to explain the ENTIRE history of Norrath, from its creation to now? Or is there anywhere I can read it?The only additional info I know of is why the Iskar serve Freeport rather than themselves. But.. yeah...If anyone can do this, or show me where to go, i'll love you. For a really long time. And give you the kind of kiss only a Ratonga could give!Thanks <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<div>Yeah there's no chronological record of when *ANYTHING* truely happened. I mean there's no carbon dating that tells us just how old Norrath is, or even when the first creatures started to appear or anything like that. Just general groupings like Eras and "so-and-such years ago".</div>
