Antonius Bayle I was the founder of human civilization and was known as the Great Unifier for his uniting of the human tribes and the foundation of Qeynos. He started the kingdom which sprung forth humanity, so to speak. Antonica, formerly Tunaria, was renamed in his honor, despite the derision from other races for naming it after a person and not a deity. It is believed that it will one day become tradition for the ruling leader of the Bayle line changes his/her name to a variation of Antonius upon taking the throne, in honor of the first Antonius Bayle.

The next ruler of Qeynos, Antonius Bayle II, the Great Defender, was his son. Tunaria's renaming was his doing.
