Hello everybody, and thanks for taking the time to read this!

I'm a veteran MMO roleplayer who is looking for some advice on my character's backstory. This is my first Final Fantasy game, though I have some experience with the franchise second-hand via friends. I'm trying to piece together the lore, but I would like some advice for a good foundation. I need help deciding where my character comes from and where she might be going.

Here is a basic list of things I want my character to be:

Midland Hyur.
Originates from a small village or town.

Though I prefer to learn about the world of FFXIV, its customs, and its people first-hand from roleplay interaction, I understand there are certain things my character should know simply by being a denizen of Eorzea. Here are some things I need help with:

What historical events should my character be aware of?
What cultures and traditions are considered common knowledge (including knowledge of cultures and traditions of other, non-hyur races)?
From what region could my character originate from (small village/town)?

Thank you very much for any help you can provide to get me started in the roleplay community!
