I'll add my two cents. 360 years, in history, is nothing. The differences can be recorded in a subsection of the same article for Hendor. Sometimes, splitting articles is just not a good idea.

- I fixed my typo, the difference is 460 years. Which, for elves, is nothing, but for humans, thats a pretty big span. For example, the culture and barony of Jantalar is nearly a hundred years younger than the two Hendors. It was formed in 4735, as opposed to 4638 for the two hendors. Furthermore, South and North Hendor exist as seperate provinces of the Empire (and on one documentation page found here, as two seperate cultures).
