The Last War
The most recent significant event in Eberron is an event called the Last War, so-called because the people of Khorvaire believed that after the war was over everybody would grow tired of war. It refers to a series of conflicts in Khorvaire over 102 years that began with a dispute over the throne of the Kingdom of Galifar and the ruling of the Five Nations.
Two years prior to the end of the Last War, the nation of Cyre was destroyed in an incident known as the Day of Mourning. This event helped expedite the end of the Last War. Now, the region that was once Cyre is referred to as the Mournland and is the home of living spells, preserved dead bodies, and a militant sect of warforged led by one called the Lord of Blades whose avowed goal is the total domination of the continent by the warforged at the expense of all "flesh and blood" humanoids. Those in the Mournland do not heal naturally, and magical healing has no effect. For all these reasons, few people enter the region.
The Last War officially has ended two years prior to the start of the common Eberron campaign, with the Treaty of Thronehold, as each of the Five Nations and most of the nations that broke off during the war officially became independent...
In SJ2k7, it's still a couple more years before that.

Note 1: The skyship Ravenspark was discovered among the wreckage of Cyre. It was later recovered, repaired, and sold to the wizard Delvin of House Lyrandar.
Change of name from Ravenspark to Ravenstorm noted. Likewise included such detail into the ship's background info.
rothaine's background includes a mysterious illness sweeping the cruise ship (Eglantine) she was at. most likely related to the plague at regalport. she is now employed at Ravenstorm.
