Region
Larodais is a large Steppe, consisting of deserts and grasslands in the cold northern regions of the far East. Its wealth is in hunting, mining, and the herds of Yak tended by steppe nomads.
People
The population of Larodais is made up of both settled villagers and drifting Nomad Clans. The settled folk live in small fortified villages clustered round mines and trading posts, while the nomads have small dome like tents called Yurts which can be easily taken down and moved from camp to camp. The region is a border region which has often suffered raids during wartime, so naturally the people are hardy and always well armed.
Government
Ordu-Baliq, means "town of the court" or "town of the army" in the tongue of the steppe nomads. It is the regional capitol of Larodais province, and is the seat the Baron of Larodais. It is situated in the central steppe, straddling all trade routes through the province, with good water supplies and pasturage. The town itself is lightly fortified but well organised, with a fortified military command point and a commercial entry point. Certain areas of the town are allotted for trade and handcrafts, while in the centre of the town are the Baron’s mansion, houses of rich residents, and the temple quarter. A notable feature is a great green granite obelisk set up in the central square opposite the Baron’s mansion. It is carved into the shape of a coiled dragon and bears a runic inscription glorifying the Gods.
History
The region of Larodais was a former region of the Highland Empire until becoming a region of Lasanar. Since the fall of Lasanar however, Larodais has been apart of the realm of Ohnar West.
