History
Le Veaux was founded in 1326, preceeding Asortia by just over 100 years. Asortia was founded to the west of Le Veaux and rapidly began expanding, colonizing the surrounding areas and attempting to do the same to Le Veaux on two separate occasions each time obtaining some (though not all) Vaun land. Le Veaux turned the tables in 2672 when they attempted and succeeded in colonizing Asortia which was wakened by several revolutions in the Asortian colonies. Le Veaux had Asortia assimilate into the nation and would take Asortias previous capital city, Cenel, and rename it to Monvette while maintaining Cenels trading hub.
Demography and Population
Le Veauxs population is primarily human and elven, each making up about 40% of the population.
Trade & Transport
Le Veaux is home to the largest center of trade in the world, the capital Monvette. Because of Le Veaux's geographical position as a peninsula and Monvettes location being right at the tip of the countries waterfront, Monvette became an important stop for aquatic trade routes. Despite the land of Le Veaux not having any particularly rare or special resources with which to create products, it's invaluable as a commerce center due to product from all across the world passing through.
