Although the current Gloranthan Time is believed by many to have begun only 1600 years ago, its mythology and history go back much further, for thousands or even millions of years. Although much of history is dependent on and colored by the local culture, some universal events are believed by many to have taken place. A group of magical scientists called the God Learners spent centuries codifying the myths and history of Glorantha, and although they are now extinct and hated, the effects of their work can be felt in many of the articles presented below.
