| The neighbor most likely to wage war upon Irill is currently the Kingdom of Dakar. They share a common border of very arable land with a great deal of natural meadowlands and cut by hundreds of streams and rivers. Also, whoever controls the [[Valley of the Sun]] controls the mouth of the [[Caragan Sea]] where the Zun River empties. As long as the Irillian Empire controls these two vital lands they can reduce Dakar's small navy to shattered timbers if they ever try and force their way into the Caragan Sea. | The neighbor most likely to wage war upon Irill is currently the Kingdom of Dakar.

| - | Because of this most of the nothern Irillian providences maintain several [[lore:irillian military|legions]] and often check Dakarian merchants at their border for spies and assassins. Even if Dakar wasn't involved, anyone of importance dying under unnatural circumstances automatically shifts the blame to an agent of Dakar. Paranoia, fear, and hatred boil on both sides of the border with those few merchants willing to risk the journey watching over their shoulder at both sides. Its not uncommon for cross-border raids to hit fat merchant caravans because the border towns are so strongly fortified. | + | Because of this most of the nothern Irillian providences maintain several [[orgs:irillian_army|legions]] and often check Dakarian merchants at their border for spies and assassins.

| In 1453 the Kingdom of Dakar under the rule of Queen [[people:Aurora I]] launched an attack into the Valley of the Sun. By 1457 the Irillian Legions fell back south outside of the Valley of the Sun ceding full control to the Dakarians. | In 1453 the Kingdom of Dakar under the rule of Queen [[people:Aurora I]] launched an attack into the Valley of the Sun.

| - | Carthia have raided not just Irillian merchants moving along the Iron Road to Turan - but on several occasions a powerful enough warleader has risen among their ranks to sack several Irillian towns. The local lord requests help from the legion, but too often the [[atlas:Carthins]] melt back into the steppes before Irill's vast military might can be brought to bear. On those occasions when the two sides do meet on the field of battle the legion's discipline and well-drilled tactics have always carried the day. | + | Carthia have raided not just Irillian merchants moving along the Iron Road to Turan - but on several occasions a powerful enough warleader has risen among their ranks to sack several Irillian towns.

| When they are not warring, there is a small amount of trade that occurs between various tribes and Irillian merchants. While some tribes take a blood-oath against all Irillians for their incursions into their lands, most see the benefit of trading now so they have the materials for war later. The Carthins trade a great deal of handicrafts and raw gemstones and take steel and finished goods in return. | When they are not warring, there is a small amount of trade that occurs between various tribes and Irillian merchants.

| - | Due to the heavy influence of the [[lore:Irrishite|Irrishites]] magicians, sorcerers, wizards, witches, and anything else you want to call those who can manipulate the powers of [[lore:Irrish]] command a powerful presence inside of Irill. There are several powerful guilds of magicians that wield great political as well as economic control. Several of these guilds have built large libraries and workshops where their students can study and master their own capabilities. Unlike in other nations the teaching of magic is more codified that a simple master-apprentice relationship. | + | Due to the heavy influence of the [[orgs:irrishite|Irrishites]] magicians, sorcerers, wizards, witches, and anything else you want to call those who can manipulate the powers of [[lore:Irrish]] command a powerful presence inside of Irill.
