>Lost Global Empire of Atlantis

>Long before the first civilisations, the people of the Atlantis Archipelago unified and together forged a great empire spanning across the globe. The Atlantean Empire built massive structures and monuments throughout their territory celebrating the various aspects of their culture. The civilisation, beginning 135,000 years ago, reached a golden age around 120,000 years ago influencing local people near Atlantean settlements, slowly spreading civilisation through osmosis. The Quaternary glaciation period began 110,000 years ago bringing a final end to the Empire of Atlantis, destroying both their empire and home islands, though their monuments still remain around the world as super-ancient ruins.

>Some peoples in areas like Egypt, Mesopotamia, India and China retained aspects of the Atlantean culture and civilisation, passing such ideas and practices down to successive generations. This eventually gave rise to the first modern civilisations around 12,000 years ago after the end of the 98,000 year long ice age that destroyed Atlantis.
