Baenurra Camp

Baenurra Camp is a town in the Dalforean region of Ormol region. It is home to the Aladornic House Nernellis. Originally founded in the 2nd Century BCE, the town has been inhabited on and off through the years, used as a trading post and stopoff point between Sunsu in Huon Sa and Afaqa in Dalfore.
== Etymology ==
Baenurra Camp's name is derived from the Khams Tibetan 'Bǎnǎ rê Kham', translating roughly to 'Hidden Fish, Mountains of the Kham'. This is a literal description of the area by the Kham Tibetan settlers.
== History ==
Baenurra Camp was founded during the Age of Migration by Kham Tibetan sailors on the Kuwan Wa. The captain, Songtsen Gampo, named the area by combining words for what he found. The bay was relatively hidden and teeming with fish, hence the 'bǎ' and nǎ respectively; there were mountains of the Huon Range in the northern distance which resembled the mountains of the Kham region in Tibet, hence the 'rê Kham'. Its name literally means 'Hidden, Fish, Kham Mountains'.
The Tibetans had not landed alone. Another two Chinese ships, the Taizun and Guangbing, settled south of Banara Kham and immediately set about slaughtering the local Running Men, a practice the people of Banara avoided. This was just as well - the Running Men snapped and massacred the crews of the other two ships several years after they settled. The People recognised the pacifism of the Tibetans, though, and left them alone.
Over time Banara Kham bastardised, becoming its current form Baenurra Camp when the Tungrids arrived in the 6th Century. These newcomers also respected the freedom of the citizens, and many settled in Baenurra peacefully. The town became part of the de facto Tungrid state, and later part of the splinter state of Ormol.
Nowadays, Baenurra Camp is the northernmost town in the Republic of Dalfore, having been diplomatically integrated in the 7th Century. It retains many of its old Tibetan customs, along with a smattering of Tungrid culture as well. The town is heavily separated from any other Dalforean town due to this different, alien culture - especially alienated are the ethnically-Dalforean House Nernellis, the local lords appointed and sent by the Dalforean government due to a distinct lack of noblemen or feudalism in the town when it was integrated.Category:Settlements
