THE KINGDOM - Founded six centuries ago by the mortal god during the great cataclysm. Resulting in the unifications of the many races of the continent under the dominion of Overna. Taking a fiery red dragon as the banner and sigil of their nation. By far the most diverse and heavily populated nation of Mortalum. Inhabited by roughly ten million people scattered across the continent and neighboring isles. Having established a close alliance with the drugar clans and their city states. With the largest land army in the world with four legions, each commanded by one of four crusadrem guardians. Each legion capable of calling upon thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands of soldiers to fill their ranks in a matter of weeks. Their navy being on par with that of the coalition, but greatly outclassed by the elves of the republic.
THE MAGOCRACY - Once a vassel state of the kingdom, the archmages of arcanis achieved independence roughly five centuries ago during the last great rebellion. Taking a violet owl as their banner and sigil, representing the wisdom of the archmages. Governed by an council of five master sorcerers. The Magocracy has established close ties with its neighbors. Primarily the with the kingdom and the dominion. While they only have a limited navy and minimal military defense, their expertise in the arcane has granted them great prestige and respect on the political stage. Often taking in refuges and outcasts from all across the world who seek to learn magic in the great tower city of Arcanis.
THE REPUBLIC - A nation of high elves, with an ancient and glorious past. Taking a royal blue eagle with outstretched wings as their banner and sigil. While their standing army numbering only a couple thousand. The Republic is known to train some of the most elite warriors in the world. With a grand navy of several hundred warships. Often rivaling the kingdom in every aspect of trade, technology, war and development. Establishing a close trading relationship with both the magocracy and the coalition. Governed by an elected Archerald who presides over the high council. As well as eight elected heralds representing their perspective city.
THE COALITION - Seven independent city states located along the northern coast of the furiyan sub continent. Once fierce rivals, the ever present threat of the kingdom to the north and the growing hordes of red orcs to their south has forced them to establish a mutual defense pact in response to their neighbors growing military might. Taking a green unicorn of the wilds as their banner and sigil. While each of the seven cities govern themselves, their vast legion of warriors are second in number only to the kingdom. These cities are primarily human, with some brutan and sylvan integrated into their society. With standing city guards, well trained militia and professional mercenaries numbering several thousand in defense of each city. The coalition has a navy of a hundred or so warships, though it pales in comparison to the republic and the kingdom.
THE DOMINION - The dominion of drugar are known throughout the world as the wealthiest of traders and merchants. Taking the golden horned goat as their banner and sigil, representing their mountainous home and the power of greed. Being in possession of the imperial bank of duria, the currency of the world flows through dwarven hands. No war in the past six centuries has ever been won without the support of the dwarven imperial bank. While they do have a close relationship with the kingdom, they are known to do business with all nations, factions, guilds, clans and tribes throughout the known world. While each city may only have a thousand or so standing soldiers, their advanced knowledge of blacksmithing, crafting and mighty war machines cause terror in those who foolishly stand against them.
THE CONFEDERACY - A young nation of Juodan located within the avarician jungle and western savannah of Furiya. The apefolk tribes who dominate this region have remained isolationist for centuries. It is only recently that the new grand halach unified the northern tribes and established trade and relations with the outside world. While their population is few in numbers compared to other countries, their people have rapidly advanced in technology. Even undergoing military campaigns to expand eastward. Though only a few decades old, the confederation has made a name for itself as a determined and highly skilled people with an elite army who have proven excelent in prolonged sieges.
THE CHIEFDOM - The 100 Tribes is an alliance between several, often feuding red orc warlords. Established to protect each others territory and defend against outside threats. While their population is almost entirely made up of red orcs, there is a minority of dark elves and orcs from other northern tribes who have fled here as refuges. While life is difficult and infighting is common, they're ultimately united under the banner of the Grand Chieftain, ruling over the capital Jharriz with an iron fist. The 100 tribes only recently gaining recognition as a sovereign country. Having established close ties with several of its neighbors. Well known for their hordes of mounted warriors and fast moving armies.
