Kingdom of Bridgelum
Bridgelum is the youngest kingdom of Lindrinor. It'sRuled and inhabited by Halflings and its capital is Syrup, a humble riverside town.
Structure
Bridgelum is definetly the most feudal country of all Lindrinor. The king or queen holds all the power and make all important decisions for the realm. They are the ones that designate the governors of each province and the judges that will carry sentences across the kingdom. The ruler has lots of vassals that pay taxes to the country and the royal family. They will fight for their king should the need arise.
Public Agenda
The halflings that live here just want to live in peace, away from the dangers and quarrels of the rest of the planet.
History
Bridgelum was founded on the year 379 BBE after The Halfling Uprising that happened in Rockvar just a year earlier.
In the year 93 BE, it was the first realm that was attacked in Amled's War Against the Living, starting the conflict in the process.
