I genned a medium world set to go for the full 1050 years, no matter what. There were only three ages, Myth, Legends, and Heroes, but the latter age alone had over a million events, and all in all there were some hundred thousand historical figures. Daaaaamn.
EDIT: Some of the wars were really kewl, just figured I might share em' with ya.
In the year 30, war was beginning. The Group of Clouts had founded Ivoryfield, a small human settlement of the Secretive Kingdoms, and began clearing swathes of forest in an effort to expand their fledgling town. An elvish ambassador from the Celebrated Moth saw their mistreatment of nature and deemed them unworthy of control of their lands. In that year, the elves sent forth a force forty in number, and were repelled by a mere twenty defenders. The next year, they sent another forty, and were again repulsed by that same twenty. Yet again they attacked, only able to field thirty-five warriors due to the continual losses. Yet a third time the twenty humans held their ground. The Group of Clouts offered to suspend hostilities, for the townspeople began to abandon their homes in favor of less elf-endangered lands, and their army had dwindled. But the elves, in their environmentally-founded bloodlust, refused. They attacked again, in full force, forty strong, against a paltry fifteen human defenders.
Bilalo Workpristine, leader of the elvish forces, faced down Bekor Visesounded, a lad of not more than fourteen years. And she fled the battle.
With that, the assault was doomed. Elves were slaughtered, and the Celebrated Moth agreed to cease hostilities. Bekor lived out the rest of his years in relative peace, with the exception of an encounter with a human baby snatcher he threw out of town some forty years after that fateful battle.
