It was one of several villages among the forest which covered most of Glanainn at the time. The village began to grow, becoming a sizeable town by the time of the Opthelian invasion. In 1417, it became the seat of Opthelian power in Glanainn, growing rapidly. Craobhaig remained the seat of colonial governors until the Great War when Glanainn first declared independence, and then partly returned to become a protectorate of Opthelia. Craobhaig remained the capital city, and the seat of the new Glannish parliament.
