Drak Yamar

Origin
Druk Yul was founded immediately following the discovery of Eldham, commonly referred to as “New Rathnir” at the time. The original citizens hailed from a small military instillation known as Silver, located inside of the nation of Tortuga. While successful, and steadily growing in wealth and citizenry, options for growth were severely limited. Because of this, user LordCorgi gathered those within the town, and began the arduous task of starting anew within the New World. Upon landing on the shores of Eldham, LordCorgi founded the first settlement, and capital of what would become the nation of Druk Yul, Dragon’s Point.

Geography
Druk Yul is located in the northern hemisphere of Eldham, forming the center of what is known as the “Red Continent.” It’s capital, Dragon’s Point is situated amongst an isolated mountain, bordering the sea. Several additional settlements, such as Cahokia and Minas Teris, are located within sight of the capital, while other towns like that of Tomato Town, Dragon’s Perch, and Dragon’s Spine, are further west, situated into the mainland.

Dragon’s Point
Dragon’s Point, as capital of Druk Yul is seen by many as among the great cities of Eldham. The country’s military, led by TheDeadJester, and a crucial aspect of Drakian life, has its headquarters, training grounds, and barracks located within the city. A host of shops and homes fill the valley between the mountain and the coastal shelf. Rising higher into the city are the Fang Walls, a series of battlements built into the rockface, and a network of tunnels within the mountain itself. Finally, at the peak of the mountain, and imposing its presence throughout the city, is the Drake Temple. The Drake Temple serves as the cultural, spiritual, and political heart of the nation. One of the most readily visible sights within Druk Yul and even Eldham as a whole, the Drake Temple is the primary place of worship for those who participate in the act of Dragonworship. This is headed by the aptly named Wyvern, the sole dragonborn and high priest of the religion. Higher within the tower is the council room, a grand meeting hall overlooking the city and the surrounding plains. It is in this room where decisions affecting countless many peoples have taken place. Dragon’s Point is the symbol of Drakian ambition and power.

Politics and Conflict
As new nations had just begun to spring into place, the leaders of Druk Yul began to cement their presence among the natives. Leader LordCorgi founded the United Natives Alliance, a forum where numerous leaders and representatives could debate and align themselves against the existential threat of Rathnirian colonization and similar instances of dangerous expansion. While many among the group believed their first targets to be that of foreign invaders, in reality their first international conflict was against the Ellysian people.

-The Battle of Lichterfelde- This has also been fondly referred to as “The Five Minute War”, or the “Coalition-Ellysian War.” Ellysia had claimed wide swaths of territory, much of it encompassing the territories of several other nations. In an effort spearheaded by LordCorgi, the United Natives Alliance launched an attack on the Ellysian settlement of Lichterfelde, seeking to limit the nation’s rampant growth. Two teams composed of volunteers from nations within the Alliance, were lead by Drakian soldier DireWolf, and the Drakian colonel TheDeadJester. The army met little resistance and breached the town’s walls, pronouncing victory over the Ellysian nation.

-Internal Colonization- During the first period of colonization, towns sprung up across all of the New World, with little cohesion among one another. Druk Yul like every other fledging nation at this time faced these issues. These conflicts were settled peacefully, with several members ultimately becoming citizens and highly valued members of the country.

Culture
The many cities of Druk Yul have several varied building styles, such as that of Cahokia which focuses on “mounds,” large dirt structures with thatched roofs in a distinctly Mississippian view. However the central building style and theme of Druk Yul, is a hybrid fusion of Nordic and Late Middle Age structures, evoking feelings of both grandeur and power.
