1500 B.C. -Mokadun falls in present day Tunisa.

That happened much earlier. 1500 BC was 50 years into the New Kingdom of Egypt, when the Egyptian civilization already had a long history. According to Macha the people who lived along the Nile had very little in the way of civilization before the refugees from Mokhadun arrived. The knowledge that the refugees brought with them seems to have kickstarted the Egyptian civilization. That puts the fall of Mokhadun well before the Early Dynastic Period.

The latest desertification of Sahara began around 4200 BC and was finished by 3400 BC. As the refugees had to cross a desert, I'd say that Mokhadun fell no earlier than 4000 BC. Around 3600 BC seems to be the time when clay-brick houses started to appear in Egypt, and cities and kingdoms started to grow up, so Mokhadun fell no later than that.

Torg and Zoe, the StormBreaker, use the Book of Gud to defeat K'Z'K

Correct that far, but ...

and return him to the Book of E'Ville- but a part of him lives on in Gwen.

... this part isn't quite right. K'z'k was not returned to the book at that time, because he wasn't released from the book in the first place.

K'z'k was present twice during the "war of the bug squishers": Once, imprisoned in the book and unable to do anything, following the normal flow of time, and a second time after he was released and sent back in time. The second time he waged war, raised deadels and so on. Then he was reduced to a bug and squished, and the souls he had collected (including Gwynn's) returned to their bodies in their various times, each taking a shard of K'z'k's soul with them. With his body crushed and his soul scattered there was nothing left to imprison – but the book with its imprisoned K'z'k continued to exist unchanged.

Yeah, that sounds right. Etruria is very influenced by the Greek culture. I guess, if you pick one foreign language to learn, then it's most likely Greek.

Etrurian sounds like it was a very mellifluous language. The Wikipedia map of the Etruscan territory lists cities in the area: Felathri, Fufluna, Vetluna, Perusia, Velzna, etc... sounds almost Elvish.
