The first references of Atlantis were in Platos works: Critias and Timaeus in 360 BC.In his work Critias, the origins of Atlantis are discussed with Socrates. The story ends with the demise of the Atlanteans by the hands of Zeus. Some of the dialogues have however been lost.

Timaeus, his other work, is a continuation of Critias story about Atlantis, in which was mentioned the state of Atlantis and its foreign relations.

Atlantean EmpireOutside the Pillars of Hercules, war took place. After conquering all the other lands within Europe and Libya, it became a battle between the Atlantean and the Athenian empires.
