From what I understand so far, Amina was pretty much from the time of Roman(?) occupation of that land I assume to be some where in maybe Turkey and ended in a rebellion/revolt. Now 300 years later, Amina is woken up by Jackal. The land would pretty much end up changing considering what could have happened like severe deforestation since people would use wood to build homes and other stuff which would lead to the deserts.
I'm somewhat glad that there are restrictions to Amina's abilities. After all, the story would have ended much faster if she was able to heal the father.
