Talerium
Strong, Proud and Fierce!
The great desert sweeps from the mountains of Darka to the rolling verdant hills of the Cagilan Empire, it stretches from the dales of Eston to the western ocean. The desert is a hard unyielding place and it breeds a hard unyielding people. The fierce desert tribes of Talerium arose from this mighty desert and conquered the high central mountains and the fertile coastal regions for themselves in the first long war. Since then, Talerium has grown from a collection of allied and warlike desert tribes into a nation of law and order. From the North the Darkan culture arrived and soon the warriors of Talerium learned how to forge iron weapons and build mighty fortresses, from the South the Caligan Empire's influence was quickly felt and Talerium's proud desert tribes formed their own senate and the Republic Of Talerium was formed.
The Republic Of Talerium has a long memory, and though its people have evolved from the desert tribesmen they were, some things about them have not changed. Their outlook on life itself, although now cultured and civilized, remains unchanged. They are a proud, honourable people, fierce in battle and loyal to their allies.

First Civil War (the Zetcher incident)
Prince Zetcher, hitherto a respected noble of Talerium and Duke of Mapaxal suddenly had a brain fart and seceeded, creating the realm of West Talerium. In a brief but bloody war, the secession was defeated and Mapaxal re-integrated into the republic of Talerium.
Second Civil War (the Illumination incident)
Illumination, the General of Talerium and Duke of Ptaphoc bided her time until the army was away in the south. Then, she seceeded her city and created the realm of Sertraline. With the help of the army of Minas Ithil and an inside job by an ex-Darkan noble, Sertraline was brought under control, but only after the noble Alardun had been executed by Illumination as an undercover agent. After this incident, Talerium instigated the practice of only allowing a single prominent position per noble, as Illumination's position as joint General and Duke made it easier for her to bring about her treasonous acts.
