| //"Ulm is a nation that goes through major changes with the eras. In early times it is a barbarian nation. Think Conan! Or at least, think of the first five minutes of Conan, the Barbarian, when Conan's family is slaughtered by Thulsa Doom and the young boy is brought to slavery. Think of fur-dressed shamans and warrior smiths speaking of the Enigma of Steel. Then think of the German tribes described by Caesar in The Gallic Wars, the Roman disaster of the Teutoburger Forest, and the pagan temple at Irminsul. Ulm in the early era is an Ulm before the arrival of civilization" -Illwinter// | //"Ulm is a nation that goes through major changes with the eras. In early times it is a barbarian nation.

| | While Ulm is one of the original fourteen factions of //Dominions: Priests, Prophets, and Pretenders//, Early Ulm was made in //Dominions 2// as a "theme"; so was [[ulm-la|Late]] Ulm. [[Ulm-ma|Middle]] Ulm is the closest to the Ulm of the first game. |
