The Founding Time,[1] or the Age of the Proud Peoples,[2] was the period just after the end of the Crown Wars when the elves and the dwarves dominated Faerûn. During this time, the humanoid races began their expansionist efforts. Elves, dwarves, and the human tribes founded several realms such as Evereska,[1] High Shanatar,[3] and Imaskar.[1] Several major conflicts occurred during this time, including the Spider Wars[4] and the First Era of Skyfire.[3]
It is generally perceived to have lasted about six thousand years from −9000 DR to −3000 DR.[1] It was followed by the Age of Humanity.[5]
