Dian

Faction Overview	/Strategic Overview/	/History/
The Dian have the power of Bronze.
Founded by the Zhou kings as an outpost to consolidate their rule across eastern China, the state of Lu has survived the increasing chaos engulfing the nation thus far, thanks to its advantageous position with an eastern border that faces the seas, and a mass of hills that has thus far ensured that Lu troops thus far have been able to fend off any attacker. Lu has been attacked frequently over the past two centuries, particularly by its adversary Qi, but it has been able to fend off all assaults but at great cost. Unless something decisive is done, the precarious state of Lu's internal affairs threatens to rip it apart, leaving it at the mercies of larger states, particularly its old enemy Qi and the new state of Zhao.
Even so, Lu has many tools at her disposal to weather the oncoming storm, being with her rival Qi the intellect umbillicus of the Chinese world. Many of the great sages Under Heaven came from Lu, and their ideas and innovations have had benefits in strengthening Lu military might and her economic prowess. It will be up to you to exploit these traits to secure Lu's fate and raise her from being a king's subject to a queen among all the other states of China.
