Wilderlands History Corrected (Now with Dates!)

A note on the dating: the Wilderlands of Swords & Devilry uses a version of the Corrected Commoners Calendar (or at least a calendar by that name) but the designation BCCC is "BEFORE Corrected Commoners Calendar."  Though this is the origin of the acronym, the actual 1 CCC date is the purported date of the founding of the Orichalcan Empire.  The calendar was only adopted c. 4000 CCC.
