Alliances

History

Opria was founded shortly after the new Cor'Quessir assumed power after the ascension. The people not content with the way the new Cor'Quessir got their position rebelled. After long talks to prevent a civil war they claimed the region north-east of the forest.

Most of the laws of Farandell were carried over but the most important change is the inclusion of election laws conceirning the new head of government.

Society

The people of Opria are, compared to Farandell, more open and friendly towards strangers and their habits. Since Opria consists of people who do not follow the Cor'Quessir without questions, they are more open when it comes to changes in their society. Opria's citizens value improvement, progress and diplomatic solutions.
