=== Prehistory and antiquity ===
=== Middle Ages ===
=== Renaissance ===
In the 1300s, Doveres led Minstos in a new architectural style, favoring enormous stone structures.
=== Early modern ===
=== Late modern and contemporary ===
In the early 1600s, the city was a horrible place to live. During the Grand War, airships bomb Doveres and the city came crumbling down, with people fleeing up the river. After the Grand War, reconstruction began, this time favoring a more traditional city. The entire city was planned out, and most of central Doveres was rebuilt by the 1670s, while the outlying areas took even as long as the 1720s. Although Doveres still has its share of problems, its a much cleaner and safer place to live. The settlement up river eventually formed into a small industrial town.
=== Grand War ===
As Ferrudon and Great Aerum approached Doveres, airships bombed the city causing the enormous structures to collapse, killing several hundred thousand people. The survivors moved up the river. Doveres was rebuilt in the years following the war.
=== Restoration ===
Following the war, the Minston government put into action the '''Restoration Plan of 1634''', completely rebuilding the city of Doveres from the ground up so that the government would again have permanent structures and so central Minston industry could get a kick start. Deviating from the old Gothic superstructures that made up the city before its destruction, Doveres would adopt a more modern structure of grid roads and independent structures. The structure of the city was also reorganized to fit modern needs. The Central Government was moved from the mainland to the Bae District, what used to be home to military bases and defense. The Inne District, which used to be home to fishermen and traders, was converted into an industrial complex and shipping yards.

Doveres is comprised of five districts.
*'''Ohauld District''' - Filled with a large mix of businesses, homes, and industries.
*'''Bae District''' - Government. Holds the central government buildings of the Minston Republics.
*'''Inne District''' - Industrial Center.
*'''Tonin Strip''' - Like Times Square, biggest companies, stores, etc.
*'''Sumoria District''' - Outskirts of city, entering rural areas

=== Vacuum Waste Disposal ===
Implemented into Doveres in the mid 1610s. Installed into homes like water pipes and electricity. Vacuum outlets can be plugged into by devices that use the vacuum. All the pipes lead to a local VVI (Vacuum Waste Incinerator) which burns all waste picked up by the vacuum. Many uses can be used inside the home by the vacuum such as disposal of food or other waste, cleaning floors, and cleaning clothes.
=== Pneumatic Tubes ===
Using the vacuum technology, a pneumatic tube system was set up to send mail directly to a recipient's home. Apartment complexes have boxes for residents.
Mail is processed at the NPO (National Pneumatic Outpost) where people transfer mail through pipes. Each city has an NPO that connects to the province branch or even the republic branch for any non-local mail. So if someone from Doveres, Dové, Minston wanted to transfer mail to someone in Revand, Amos, Warjan, their mail would travel from Doveres to the Dové branch to the Minston branch to the Warjan branch to the Amos branch to the Revand branch and then to the recipient. There are pneumatic tube dropoffs throughout cities.
