Prassoria

Prassoria, officially the Duchy of Prassoria is a vassal of the Despotate of Celras, and a member state of the Empire of Ischanor. Located on the eastern coast of the continent of Kejafros on its Southern Sea, and sitting at the mouth of the river, Prassoria stands as a valuable trade hub for its overlords. It borders the Ischanoran Archduchy of Marisvalor to the north, and the nation of Zilatra to its south. The Duchy is currently led by Duke Calηis Dachaη δo Eltreas, descendant of the original founder of the Duchy, Acaηeas δo Phrossas.

History
The Duchy of Prassoria boasts a deep and intricate history, from its first prehistoric inhabitants to the Prassoric conquest of the region to the great journey of Acaneas, the nation has been through many struggles and conflict to have eventually grown into its current form.

Prehistory
Initially, the lands of Prassoria were very sparsely populated by the primitive, Proto-Prösgauan people, a branch of the Aysar, they built simple rockworks across the region, and created a network of well maintained trails throughout the dense Prösgau Forest. The Proto-Prösgauans are thought to have originally migrated to the region alongside their Aysar counterparts, most likely originating from either the Northern or Southern Tundras of Kejafros. The Proto-Prösgauans were hunter-gatherers, and lived off of the forest's game as well as its fruits, nuts, and berries. Their inhabitance of the region lasted for some time, eventually being integrated into the Prassors.

Arrival of the Prassors
The migrations of the Proto-Ischanic people throughout what would later become Ischanor brought the Prassors to the region, a subgroup of the Ischanics. The early Prassors were a war-like people, occasionally banding together to achieve their common goals, yet normally fighting over their petty issues. Once arriving to the region, the Prassors settled a multitude of tribes throughout the forest, absorbing its previous primitive inhabitants and introducing many new technologies such as farming and bronze tools. Importantly, they turned the land into a strategic hub, utilizing their control over the region's forested paths to administer the flow of inland trade through their territory.
