Creating history for fantasy worlds | Worldbuilding [CC]

I always have a lot of fun creating history for fantasy. That said, it can be a very large project, because, well, history is very complicated, and your fantasy world might have existed for thousands and thousands of years. So where do you even begin to create a compelling history for this fantasy world?

In this video, I'll talk about some strategies I use and questions I ask myself when I'm creating history for my fantasy worlds. Hopefully it’ll help you come up with your own strategy.

As always, these are my own strategies and questions, you may have your own, which I would love if you shared in the comments below!
