Eltenia

Eltenia is a region of Iskirra. It is located to the north of Zantium, separated by the Luzhin mountains. It was a constitutional monarchy. The capital city is Weir.
Prior to Exekian Imperial colonization, the region was inhabited for centuries by prosperous human farmers. The Exekians arrived only within the last few hundred years, and they were outnumbered by the humans six to one. After the collapse of the Empire, most of the Exekian inhabitants departed. The rest vanished into the mountains.
The citizens of Eltenia are extremely wealthy due to the abundance of natural resources found there, particularly lumber and iron, as well as its booming agriculture and fishing trade. The country is also known for its natural beauty, which attracts tourists from around the world, bringing even more money with them. Eltenians had a very high opinion of their society due to their civil liberties and freedoms, including universal suffrage and democratic elections. They were assimilated into Iskirra, which adapted many of their freedoms and rights into their own society (but not democracy). Currently, the Eltenian coastline is plagued by frequent pirate raids, and their military is struggling to deal with the issue.
The Eltenian shieldmaidens originate here, mainly in and around the region of Ardal.
