Benoïc
Ruler: Duke Ansirius
Culture/Religion: Pict/Christian.
Vassal of. King Arthur Pendragon.
Army: About 30 knights and many warriors.
Benoic is the most civilized Pictish land. Even so it is nowhere near the standards of Logres. Fortunately the Duke has a number of knights who uphold Chivalry and are familiar enough with the courts of Logres to offer visiting knights acceptable fare. Dundee, Perth and Kinclaven are the most hospitable. In the rest of the kingdom the people are poor and unfamiliar with the civilized ways of Logres.
The most populous parts of Benoic are in the Earn and Tay valleys. Many small villages and towns thrive along the banks of these great rivers, which provide a convenient means of travel, if a knight is willing to chance traveling in a flimsy looking skin boat. The coast is also well populated and reasonably civilized, but as one moves into the Highlands the dwellings become sparser, more barbaric and less friendly.
The people of Benoic were converted to Christianity many years ago by St. Ninian. Christianity is still widely practiced. However, it is said that many of the Picts still resort to their old, dark magic when the missionaries backs are turned!
Culture/Religion: Pict/British Christian The people of this southern part of populated Pictland are Christians, and regard their pagan kindred with suspicion. Places Dundee, a small city, is the largest population center in the land. It is later called the Castle of the Pilgrim, because its lord went on pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Rulers Start-510.
