I think Humans and Faunus were indeed coexisting straight off the mark. Faunus might have been from one specific area (Menagerie, maybe?) and Humans from another. Humans wished to expand, and therefore spread their existence across the world, some settling down in one kingdom, some moving on to make another. Then, they came across the Faunus in their homeland, and seeing their animal characteristics and less-developed way of life, they quickly made the idea that their purity (being purely human) and their more refined way of life made them better than the Faunus. They drove the Faunus out of their homeland and made Menagerie, which was later took back by the Faunus, who decided to keep the kingdom as it was. Then, when Faunus tried to move outwards, they were forced back into Menagerie by the human forces. They accepted this for a long time, then, BAM! The Faunus Revolution, where they fought back against the human attempts to keep them locked up in Menagerie and then got freedom to move around to other kingdoms, though are still heavily discriminated, though are becoming more and more accepted as the entirety of Vytal modernizes.

This is probably a really crappy idea, feel free to shoot it down. Just a thought.
