Chundria

Geography

Chundria is a kingdom situated to the far west of the Empire, between Kalevala and Alea'Zhim. It is a little larger than Academia but whereas Academia is a beacon of scholarly excellence, Chundria is the primary producer of grains (maize, wheat, barley). Most of this is due to its unusually fertile soil but also due to its natural geography.

Economy

Chundria is, basically, a land of fields. It has few forests, no mountains, some lakes, plenty of rivers and ideal conditions for growing. It is for this reason that many poor people head to the land, seeking to obtain a plot of land and carve out a life.

Politics

Chundria became part of the Merebian Empire in 180 IC, after the Empire spent decades protecting it from attacks by Kalevala. The Enmpire had, in effect, been an occupying force for some time before Chundria was 'claimed' as an Imperial Province.

During the War of Secession (305 IC - 314 IC), until the signing of Treaty of the Eight Thrones, Chundria was occupied by The Alliance of Independent Races under the command of the General.

This, coupled with fact that Chundria is a vital resource for the Empire is why there are 6 legions permanently station here (the 25th, 28th, 46th, 50th, 51st and 53rd).

Population

The native people of Chundria are humans who call themselves "Chundrites", and are characterised by their fair skin and slightly flat faces. Chundrite women have a reputation for being somewhat “plain”.

Although other races, such as Dwarves and Elves, can be found there the next most populace race is Ymirkin.

Its history and resources are also why many non-human races such as Minotaurs and Ogres have settled there. This, understandably, makes the human populace of this Kingdom worried.
