Darnau
Darnau, officially the Kingdom of Darnau, is a federal subject of Is Nagain.
In recent years, Darnau has cultivated a reputation opposed to Otha, as the more libertine, bohemian, Northernising, and generally less conservative pole of modern Naganian culture. Alcohol prohibition laws are poorly enforced, it hosts the country’s only nude beaches (Bezmenu and Bech Olys), gambling is legal, and Oecumenian, Oecumenian-influenced, and novel, transgressive dress styles abound. Perhaps most illustrative of the divide between the two is the competing film industries in Mun Otha and Illismene. While Mun Othian films shy away from things like drug or alcohol use, violence, “glorification” of crime, inclusion of sympathetic non-elven characters, and things generally considered “Northern” or “non-elven”, Illisminian film is quite the bit more risqué.
