This had further led to an explosion of wealth and productivity putting the already wealthy nation far ahead of the others. It's long unguarded boarder with Zilargo is a near free-trade zone, but the Zil Trust watches it heavily. It's western boarder with Droaam is the counter-point...the longest fortified boarder in the world. Think the Great Wall of China with cannons and light rail ready to move troops quickly from point to point. Karrnath is the exact opposite. Powerful militarily, but struggling to feed the populace. It stands at the opposite of Breland at every negotiation. The legions of undead have grown and are fully integrated into society now. Having annexed much of the Talenta Plains and the Mournlands, it now looks greedily to the rich mountains of the Mror's. Thrane has closed its boarders and become isolated, not trusting those who do not openly wrap themselves in the faith. Only priests and paladins freely leave to do good works here and there. The people of Thrane have become a paranoid people and impoverished, which they blame on the evil in the world trying to starve them out of their pious retreat. Aundair has rejected technology for their advanced magics, but have found themselves left behind. They have fully lost any claim on the Eldeen Reaches and are struggling to find a way to stay relevant in a world that can produce the same effects for far less. Darguun fell just after the death of Lhesh Haruuc when the civil war was quickly won by a young Dhakaani emperor who could trace his lineage back to the last of the ancient line. His well-equipped and trained armies quickly overwhelmed the rampaging hoards of the lowland goblinoids. Not long after, Cannith explorers found the gift of what they call the Emperor's Blood (Kruud'oil in the goblin tongue). The black gold has been a boon for the monsterous nation and has made them a rising power in the world. It has also funded their long twenty year war against the elves of Valenar. Wow, that was fun. I'm out of time to look at Aerenal, the Principalities, and all, but I hope there is something useful in that mess.</blockquote>
