Pulasia is a world similar to Earth on which humans never evolved. Due to this, many species that went extinct in our world, such as the Woolly Mammoth, did not. 1610 years ago, a group of aliens came to Pulasia. It is not known who these aliens were or why they came there. According to myths, the aliens gave 64 animal species sentience because they felt the planet was boring without sentient life. Any real motives behind this act are not known, but it is known that 64 animal species, at least their representatives in Europe and North Africa, were given sapience, opposable thumbs and Iron Age technology. A list of these species can be found here.
