Inazuma backstory:

The turning point in Inazuma’s history occurred during the Khaenri'ah Cataclysm where monsters from the Abyss invaded Teyvat, pushing Inazuma to the brink of destruction.

During this dark period, Ei lost her entire circle of loved ones:

• Chiyo: Ei’s close oni general, who was swallowed by a monster, corrupted by the Abyss, and turned against Ei, forcing Ei to strike her down.
• Kitsune Saiguu: The kitsune priestess of the Grand Narukami Shrine who was consumed by the dark abyss mud while defending the realm.
• Raiden Makoto: Makoto traveled to Khaenri'ah alone without telling Ei and was mortally wounded. Ei arrived only in time to watch her twin sister die in her arms.

Traumatized by watching everything she loved wither away, Ei concluded that progress and human ambition inherently bring change, which leads to loss and suffering. To protect Inazuma from the destructive wrath and erosion of time, she vowed to freeze the nation in an unchanging state of "eternity".

To achieve "eternity", Ei took extreme measures:

• Ei discarded her body and placed her consciousness inside a synthetic, unyielding puppet body—the Raiden Shogun—programmed strictly to enforce rules preventing change
• Ei locked her soul away inside a meditative pocket realm to prevent her own mind from eroding over time.

And then centuries passed peacefully after the Cataclysm until the Fatui manipulated Inazuma's corrupt government tri-commissions:

• Exploiting the puppet Shogun's rigid programming, they convinced her to issue two devastating decrees: the Sakoku Decree (completely locking down Inazuma's borders, trapping its citizens inside and executing any outsiders trying to enter), and The Vision Hunt Decree (ordering the forcible seizure of all elemental Visions to be embedded into a statue, stripping people of their core dreams and leaving them empty shells)
• The two decrees sparked a civil war on Watatsumi Island, leading to the creation of the Resistance, setting up the exact state of unrest the Traveler encountered upon arrival in Inazuma
• With the help of Yae Miko, the Traveler confronted the Raiden Shogun, and Yae Miko used a special charm to pull the Traveler into Ei’s meditative pocket dimension, the Plane of Euthymia.
• There, the Traveler proved to Ei that her citizens' ambitions (Visions) were not sources of destruction, but of strength. Defeated and deeply moved by the collective willpower of her people, Ei abolished the Vision Hunt Decree, ending the civil war.
