Erui Arnad

In times of war, Erui Arnad is usually able to maintain its neutrality by threatening to embargo aggressive actors, while maintaining trade with all sides of a conflict. In this respect, they are also the strongest brokers of peace if it suits them to force the issue, but they are rarely compelled to do so in favor of the profitability of feeding marching armies.

History

Erui Arnad was officially established with the colonization of Erui Ost and the subsequent pact with the Dwarven Kingdoms . After the first Culling of the Orclands, the lessened need for defense allowed for the lush wheat fields to be tilled and harvested. As the fields expanded and townships were established, the increased demand for travel led to the creation of the finest highway system in Eastphalia- paved stones for hundreds of miles leading to almost every hamlet and wealthy farmstead in the kingdom.
The royal family of Erui Arnad hails from a family of former silversmiths, elected by the First Council in 7 AFL to act as the head of state
