Confederacy of Duiros

The Confederacy of Duiros is a nation situated on the island of Duiros/Duister. The nation is run by a mayoral council so that every town is represented equally. Citizens are called Duirosi, but this is only a name for citizens of the nation, not an ethnic term. The people on the island have lots of different backgrounds and ethnicities as the island never had a native population before merchants know as "gelts" set up outpost along the islands coast.

Geography
The island of Duiros is in the south-east of the continent of Lverstwrynn. It was one of the eastern most known landmasses in Kylorne.

The island has a temperate climate and sustains enough rain to classify its forests as rainforests. Around 90-95% of the island is covered by the thick rainforest, the rest being mostly beaches and some grazing fields.

Duiros is geologically active, experiencing eartquakes regularly. It also has an anomaly unique to its island referred to as "Burning Pits". These form because gaseous leaks from the ground catch fire nd will continue burning until there is no more gass.

The island has 1 mountain that is situated on the south-central part of the island, this making the siuth coast very steep and the north coastvery flat. The mountain is thought to be a dead volcano as trees grow up onto the top, so volcano could not have had an eruption in the last 250 years

History
The history of Duiros do not go very far back. There has been found ruins on the northern coast, including a settlement referred to as "Jandak". It also said that Fort Loup was built on a previous settlement, but there was no sign of life when the gelts arrived

The "Gelts" were merchants and sailors. They first settled on the island with a trading outpost called Bruinja. Due to the hostile nature of the island covered in a thick rainforest this outpost did not last long. There was not much to sell from the island that didnt exist elsewhere. Then they tried again with the settlement of Roetisch.

Roetisch expanded quickly and built houses into the ground as it was easier then to chop the thousands of trees. They settlement had an impressive population, the problem was only that they werent self sufficient. After Zephyr Pradox died and the Geltrijck dissolved into Einsiedeln the settlement on Duiros was left on its own, receiving fewer shipments. Often citizens rowed to other islands to get produce themselves. The island doesnt have a deep-water port so larger carriers cant stop by. The settlement of Roetisch was then abandoned after years of struggle
