Vhan Da'Har is a small Eloysian nation located on the midlands of Azoria; encompassing both sides of the Slumbering Mountains.
Today, Vhan Da'Har controls the fertile grasslands on the northern coast of the Gulf of Ankhara, even though this small kingdom is a shadow of its former self.
Its largest city is Akkad, but that city is poor and teeming with petty, bickering nobles, desperate for political power. Vhan Da'harians are mostly simple traders and farmers, but are seen as arrogant by their neighbors for they remember fondly the ancient times when Vhan Da'Har was a great power and held dominion over most of southern Azoria. Sadly, those glory days are long past.
Local History
Long ago, the realm of Vhan Da'Har was a great power on the Continent. Its proud rulers defied Queen Lorica of Eloysia, and later defied the young Emperor Al'Dur Kharata of the Eloysian Empire.
In return, Al'Dur showed the Vhan Da'Harians no mercy; invading their territory and smashing the armies of their arrogant and defiant ruler, Emir Zhantal. Soon after, Al'Dur captured the magnificent city of Akkad, sacked it, and forced Zhantal into permanent exile.
This conflict became known as the War of the Long March, which took place between the years AR 37 and AR 40.
