Rupius was a march under the Arumelian Empire, and a march it remains, a frontier without an empire. It found its independence along with many other nations after the Great Western War. There are six barons under the marchioness, dividing the nation into seven small realms, each with separate agendas. However, they are in aggrement in many matters of national interest.
There is a grave concern about the growing aggressiveness and instablility of King Hufskey in Olandra to the northwest, and a distaste for the growing power of West Thissaly to the southwest. Now Olandra has built a canal from the Gulf of Forinse and the Olandran capital of Nassena straight through to the Rupian capital of Davelorr. Although King Hufskey has made a feeble claim that the canal will be of great benefit to Rupius as well as Olandra, most have no doubt about Hufskey’s eventual designs on the march of Rupius. So the marchioness has been getting ready for war and stockpiling goods for a siege.
The people and language are a distinct breed of Thissalin spiced with a bit of Arumelian and Celebrunt. Both Atana and Wami halflings are not uncommon, Wami being more common in the cities and towns, Atana in the pastures.
