Nuledor

==Overview==
Nuledor is quite a large duchy in the centre of Ardadain, almost completely surrounded by mountains. To the south are the vast Laiqa Mountains, and enclosing the northern plains are the Arania Mountains and the small range of Enered. It's only open border is with Krishkan, and the Morrim are regular visitors to the peaceful duchy.
Nuledor is one of the oldest duchies, and its people can be considered atypical of a modern Ardanian commoner. They are hard-working and fun-loving, friendly to most. They are not used to foreigners (save for the Morrim and, rarely, Elves and Dwarves), and are distrustful of them.Yet they are welcoming all the same, and most Nulens take pride in their hospitality.The people of Nuledor are generally rustic,save for in the larger cities. Farms are abundant,and most of the land in Nuledor is arable and irrigated- there are few predators left within the confines of the duchy, save for the odd bear or wolf, coming down from the Morrim Heights .There are literally hundreds of villages, many without names, and some consisting solely of a few farmsteads- never truly threatened, the Nulens felt no need for safety in numbers, and instead concentrated on economizing their farming space.
The Nulens are a peaceful folk, overly fond of the pleasures in life, and the big cities are filled with brothels, inns and smoking halls.They are also fond of the local jousting tournaments-though this is the only time they bother to acknowledge the local ‘big-wigs.’ To them, the lords and barons are an unwanted necessity, who know little of the ways of the land. As long as they leave the commoners alone, they’re happy.
