History
When the first Volyhenian Grand Knut found he could go west no more he laid eyes upon a mountain of flame and said that is where he would rest and nowhere else. After fighting back both dragons and giants to claim the prestigious mountain as his own his only acts were to raise a defensive structure, name a successor, and die. This left many centuries of further conquests to future Volyhenians.

A strange blend of sturdy metal and the mobile designs used everywhere else in the nation. Yurts of iron and gold that seem to expand ever upward.
