The area now known as the state of Mylo was inhabited by [[Parkufo]] tribes for at least 400 years before the first English-speaking settlers arrived in the area in the 1700s. Many of these tribes lived in the mountains now known as the [[Chautauqua Mountains (Mylo)|Chautauqua Mountains]], which they called "pounouhes", which was their word for "mountains". The mountain tribes hunted for their food, and they lived in ''fehauraos'' (tents in [[Askouhea Parkufo]]). The tribes living on the coast lived off the rivers, lakes, and ocean. They got their food and water from these bodies of water.

Mylo (pronounced Milo) is a state in the nation of Dragoonasag. The state is bordered by Penoshia to the west, Mayla to the northwest, Ilonia to the north, and Goffia to the south. To the east is the Misty Ocean. Mylo's capital city is Naguro. The state's three largest cities are Jord City (largest), Mistian City (second largest), and Naguro (third largest). The state's three largest cities make up the Mistian City-Jord City-Naguro (MCJCN) Metropolitan Area.

The origin of Mylo's name is unknown. Some people believe that the state is named after Daniel Mylo, who helped write the original Dragoonish constitution. Others believe the state was named for the mythical island country of Mylo.

History

Parkufo days

The area now known as the state of Mylo was inhabited by Parkufo tribes for at least 400 years before the first English-speaking settlers arrived in the area in the 1700s. Many of these tribes lived in the mountains now known as the Chautauqua Mountains, which they called "pounouhes", which was their word for "mountains". The mountain tribes hunted for their food, and they lived in fehauraos (tents in Askouhea Parkufo). The tribes living on the coast lived off the rivers, lakes, and ocean. They got their food and water from these bodies of water.

Arrival of new settlers to 1900

In the 1700s, English-speaking settlers arrived at what is now Jord City's Mizzini Harbor. They met and befriended the Parkufos. They explored the land, and they decided that the land will be their new home. The new settlers began clearing forests, and building cities and towns. In 1801, the new settlers began building settlements along the coast, and by 1811, all three MCJCN cities were founded. In 1813, Richard Fennelli was elected as Mylo's first governor. He also served the shortest term of any Mylo governor, dying four weeks after taking office. In 1820, a magnitude-3.3 earthquake struck in Western Mylo. Four months later, a smaller earthquake struck near present-day Sorcassus.
