so, after reading RoR and watching the dev diary for ionia, here’s what i’ve collected so far:
long ago ( and i mean a really long time ago ), a race of titans descended from the skies to take over ionia, but mortals that harnessed the power of the spirit realm turned into the vastayashai’rei who defeated them
there is no actual government structure because of the many factions and philosophies living among the land ; instead, they’ve gone off their disorganization and variety for a long while, seeing as the magic of the land aided them whenever any other nations decided to attack
but noxus wasn’t like that. they hired some zaun chemists to essentially make toxic bombs that would melt and destroy the lands away. it seems that to this day, some parts still suffer from this
some vastayans who were promised that their magic would be left alone helped general swain and the noxian army in their capture of the placidium
since the stand at the placidium, the art of teaching martial arts and magic has since become more “violent,” many people believing now that they need to fight back
buildings and structures in ionia is actually really cool ; instead of cutting trees or damaging nature in any way, there are specialized construction workers ( like wood weavers ), who convince the trees to go certain ways so they can work around it to make a house. however, things don’t always go according to plan and you might wake up with a tree branch blocking you in your room.
land fishers are those magically-tuned fishers collect grains and fruits from the grass rivers
even the things you consume can affect you, such as the sun apple that can make you tanner, feel warmer ( probably great for the cold times )
ionians generally don’t change anything in the land ; even places that have been affected by the titan wars long ago have remained untouched, even if they don’t understand why or the history behind it.
