Human Evolution 2.0 (Map Game)

Before 100,000 Years Ago, each turn is 10,000 years, after 100,000 Years Ago each turn is 1,000 years.

Once a Species goes extinct, it's out of the game. Period.

Feel free to make up species!!

IN ORDER TO PREVENT THIS ONE FROM GETTING OUT OF CONTROL, NO CIVILIZITIONS ARE ALOUD PRIOR TO 500,000 YEARS AGO.

Spacefareing civilizitions are aloud ONLY after 50,000 Years ago.

2.3 million years ago

 * In OTL California and Baja California a race of creatures called the Serenity emerge. They are at least seven feet tall at the minimum have very thin slender bodies, and have only four fingers that have razor sharp talons. They also have a glowing blue blood mainly due to the presence of hemocyanin rather than hemoglobin. They are known to be predatory, but are also omnivorous and may have domesticated animals.


 * In OTL Central Afirca another creature called the Akvo emerge. They resemble OTL humans in terms of body shape and height, but they have a light blue skin, orange or violet colored eyes, and silver or pale white colored hair.
 * in Central Asia, a species known as the Kazadi emerge. they are bipedal, and have extremely long legs and a thick hide. their main strength is their speed and endurance. they can run up to fifty miles an hour, and can maintain speeds of thirty miles an our for at least a day. their endurance is assisted by their opposable thumbs, which let them carry animal skin bags filled with water.
 * On the OTL Italian Peninsula, a new species appears. They are called the Fedeledi. They are very similar to OTL humans but their skin is pailer, their eyes are a dark shade of yellow, and they have less hair, to the point of only having a thick amount of hair on the head, which is often dark blonde. They are at least 10 feet high, and they have large bodies and heads. (Don't worry, the Fedeledi will develop much more slowly on this map game Fedelede)
 * In OTL Thailand, a monkey-like creature, the Crassius, develops. These are 6-7 ft tall, have thick, have long downy fur, eyes ranging fro light blue to dark green, and have long sharp claws on their feet and hands. Their thail has developed into a long, muscular tail that can fully support 3x the body weight of a Crassius. They primarily eat fish, rodents, and small reptiles, and have developed the ability to use vines wrapped around fallen branches to create rafts, as well as a primitive language based on hisses and subtle tail movements. Their strength lies in their ability to manipulate tools such as flint knives and fires, as well as them having limited infared vision. They live and work in packs of 200-300, that each typically control a small stretch of a body of water, with lots of inland areas. The concept of shelter has not been developed yet, so most of them just sleep in the open around fires.
 * In OTL Australia, a new species develops. They are called the Aquatics. They are similar to OTL humans, but they have gills which allow them to survive underwater for a long time. 800px-HE2.0_2.3.png

2,290,000
Crassius develop music, equivilant to OTL neoceltic music think the Cheiftans, using a lot of bagpipes, primitive guitars, horns, drums, and harps. The music sounds a lot like the opening in I Saw Three Ships) and a numerical system based on 10. A religion develops, that is related to OTL Asatru, but with demigods, like in Greek culture. They also develop the concept of shelter, with large treehouses arranged around a central courtyard/clearing. The Crassius create an Allthing-style system of government, with no leader, and deciding on all decisions by a simple majority. They expand in all directions.

All remaining spicies expand.

Homo Egaster appears in east africia.



2,280,000
Crassius develop primitive nets for use in hunting and fishing, and begin to build actual boats, like sampans, as opposed to rafts.Crassius also develop transluscent eyelids and larger, stronger lungs, to enable them to dive deeper while fishing, as well as to enable them to adapt to the Himalayas, which they are expanding into. They expand into Sumantra and China.

Serenity begin to build huts on the coast, and begin to fish. They expand further south.

Kazadi develop fire, as well as a primitive language of grunts and hisses. They expand up and around the Caspian.

H. Egaster spreads up the Nile Valley.



=2,270,000= The Kazadi develop a primitive atlatl, which allows them to hunt much more efficently. they begin to gather into nomadic tribes. They expand south into Persia and Baluchistan, as well as through the Caucasus. Many begin to lose their thick fur, do to climatic differences between the arid Middle East and the cold grasslands of their homeland.

The Egaster develop flint knapping, and begin to use spears and javelins when they hunt. They expand along the Mediteranean coastline, as well as through the fertile savanahs of OTL Sahara.

Crassius utilize their relitively advanced seafaring technology, and expand into Sumantra and Kyushu. Bolas are added to the primitive bows and spears used for hunting. The bows utilize the great strength of the Crassius' long tail to bring up the draw strength to over 200 lbs, while bolas are often attached to the tail, enabling them to snag prey with both hands free. The infared eyespots above their primary eyes develop more, as does (for the Crassius expanding into both the Himalayas and Indonesia) their lung capacity. Many Crassius along the coast and the ones in Sumatra develop webbed fingers, and a wider tail, to facilitate movement underwater (the predominant food source for all Crassius is fish). Many of the ones further inland develop earlike organs near the soles of their hands and feet, enabling them to detect movement on terra firma for up to 50 m.



=2,260,000= The Kazadi adopt the practice of wearing animal skins. this allows them to expand northward and southward, while not separating into different species, because they frequently travel long distances, following game.

Sumatra is completely inhabited by Crassius, while independent groups are splitting off throughout the islands (though small ones at that). Many of the seafaring Crassius are beginning to exibit many traits that would be characterized as making them a completely seperate species, including the loss of the infared eyespots and much of their hair, as well as primitive gills. However, they have the same language and culture, and all differances are only phisical. The inland Crassius begin to move from fishing to hunting and gathering, but still live in permeneant shelters year round, mainly because they hunt primarily by ambushing prey att the banks of rivers. Many Crassius begin to use fires to not only warm themselves, but to cook. Their vibrators vibration sensors develop more, enabling them to detect movement at over 150 m. They meet up with the Kazadi, but, do to lingiustic, cultural, and phisical differances, neither believe the other is a sentient being, and avoid each other, taking each other for the area's alpha predators. More Crassius expand northwards, and inhabit most of OTL Japan.

'Are people still playing this? i am Destroyanator'

The Kazadi begin to expand deep into Siberia and across the Urals.
