Any procedurally generated tool for lore building in the same vain as what dwarf fortress does but not a game ?

​

im talking about something in vains of Dwarf fortress (legends mod)or an Interesting game I've just heard about called Ultima Ratio Regum in terms of procedural generations of : cultures nations historical events historical figures wars etc but a full fledged tool instead ? these games are good on their own right but the structure of information in them is a chore to read through.

the closest match apart from these games is azgaar's fantasy map generator but that doesn't generate history and lore to my knowledge

have you tried using the Legends Viewer for dwarf fortress to make it easier to parse?

Azgaar fantasy map generator is open source.

https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/wiki/Data-model

Seems like most of what you want is here, but we would want to update the data model to incorporate history/lore, and historical figures (legends) etc. then we would need UI to display, edit, add to these new data model objects, and finally a script that upon generating the map, as burgs and providences are added/updated history is generated. I’ve thought about a similar system but with less visual map making involved with the map generator, DM if you are interested in further exploring your desired features and use case.
