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.

Climate
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.

Geology
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.

Topography
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". There were hobbits living on the island, but they were largely unnoticed and didnt write down history. It also said that Fort Loup was built on a previous settlement, but there was no sign of life when the gelts arrived.

Arrival
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, a settlement of Hobbits that collaborated with the Gelts.

Failed Settlements
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. When the Geltrijck fell it was largely forgotten about, but due to the suposed death of Evelien van roestich, the daughter of the elderly mayor and one who was in charge of roestich in the place of her grandfather as he was gravely ill and stuck in bed. now the hobbits knew how to be self sufficient so they continued to live their lives no leader to be formally in charge but just the elederly mayor sometimes giving out advice when he was not in bed due to illness and age related health problems. Then the stullios brothers show up and get a nice welcome from the hobbits and get told about the problems with leadership and protecting around roestich so they offer to help.

Stullios Brothers
Yves Stullios is a person from the unknown east, a place called Aesteros. After buying his way onto a Geltisch trading ship he ended up on Duiros. Duiros was very familiar to him, much like his home and established a town. This town was successful and self-sustaining. He sent word to his brother, Luis Stullios. Luis arrived on Duiros anround the time the Geltrijck fell. Luis and Yves then travelled around the island and setting their sights on unification.
