Umm... did the Closing separete the civilizations? Certainly, the Second Age before the Closing is the Age of Empires.

Venice send ambassadors to every city for recieving their reports. Hence, the reports that Venezian ambassasors send have remaind in the Library of Venice. We know the length as time between Venice and other European cities in the 16 century by reprots.
