Orenia

The nation north of Medeba across the Vyrth Sea. It is currently ruled by Emperor Murod, former leader of the Nhuvasarim who betrayed the late emperor that preceded him and usurped the throne. He has been emperor for 3 years and rules with an iron fist over the already extremely militant Orenian Empire, who in ages past conquered the few collectives of non-human races or simply wiped them out if they refused to submit. Orenia has arguably one of the most powerful militaries in the world and few would dare to oppose them.

Orenia's political structure, however, has been deteriorating in recent years as the provinces' resources are mostly being used to support the military and nobility instead of the poorer castes. The rampant racism in the core provinces is somewhat alienating to those who live further removed from Curia and possibly have more interaction with other races far more frequently, favoring inclusion and free trade over nationalism. Closer to Curia, however, there are some who say Murod depends far too heavily on non-humans and mages than previous emperor's had and that his leniency could very well endanger human life in Orenia. This swirling storm of political ideologies is calmed only by Murod's immense power.
