1670:
19/12 Delibirdre The Kingdom of Kanazumi (Rustoboro) supported by the Kingdom of East Hoenn, manages to free itself from the alphian yoke and regain its independence.
After more than 600 years of domination of the Far Eastern, the Alphian Empire was once again reduced to its regional borders.
Despite the division between the kantonese and johtian daimyo clans, the kantonese Ryuu clan branch still manages to hold relationships with the head clan residing at Fusube (Blackthorn).
1715:
02/05 Swellor Ho-oh after recovering from the fight against Lugia, suddenly leaves both the emperor Nijo and the Heartgold Matriarch Odani, flying away to an unknown location.
1718: 12/07 Exeggutlier The arrival of a fleet of galarian ships commanded by Sir Gineprus Spikeville threw the Alphian Empire into chaos.
The Galarian government aimed to impose its commercial hegemony over the Johto region.
The empire, having no defense against Gineprus gunboats, was forced to accept the unequal treaties.
This event, together with the recent abandonment of Ho-oh, was taken as the ultimate sign of the decline of the imperial house.
End of the Heavenly Period.
