## GALDR

The clan of Galdr is a pacifist nation with a population of over 338,7702. It borders against the Ishan Clan and the mountains where the secluded Salena Clan resides. This state’s main commerce is trade and merchants. Galdr’s landscape is inviting, with flower fields, open clearings, farmlands, and forests.

The Galdr Clan is renowned for being one of the safest nations to reside in because powerful magic barriers and magicians protect the cities throughout the continent. Despite its reputation, the clan still upholds austere laws and law enforcement established by its judicial system.

Because of this, tourism has become one of Galdr’s most relied profits. They are welcoming towards foreigners, welcoming them with drinks and their signature meals.

The Galderian people, or Seidhrs, are known to use Theban Alphabet and speak the Ménishè and English languages. The clan upholds old traditions and modernizes its culture to befit evolving times.

## The Five Counties

The Galdr Clan is separated into five counties: **Lithe**, **Beltane**, **Imbolc**, **Deosil**, and **Eostre**.

## Lithe

**Lithe County** administers the trade and commerce of agriculture.

This county is a rural area with a population of over 47,784. It borders the Beltane, Deosil and Imbolc.

Its main trades are animal products and crops. Lithe harvests animal products and crops, then distribute these goods to Beltane, Imbolc, and Deosil. They trade with the Ishan Clan in exchange for crystals, gems, and medicine with the Salena Clan.

Lithe has three major towns: Wildglen, Oakshire, and Rachdale.

**Rachdale**’s main commerce is the selling and buying of livestock.

**Wildglen**’s main harvests are animal products such as dairy, meat, poultry, and fur.

**Oakshire** is responsible for harvesting crops such as vegetables, fruits, herbs, and other vegetation.

## Beltane

**Beltane County** administers the trade by sea and the commerce of pisciculture and aquaculture.

This county is located on the coastline of Galdr, with a population of over 46,396. It borders Deosil, Lithe, and Eostre. Beltane establishes international trade between Galdr and other foreign nations for exotic goods uncommonly found in the clan.

Beltane has two major cities: Saltcrest and Monmouth.

**Saltcrest**’s primary industry is the breeding, rearing, and harvesting of aquatic fauna and flora, predominantly fish.

**Monmouth**’s leading business is overseas trading and peddling with foreign nations outside Galdr.

## Imbolc

**Imbolc County** is the smallest county in the Galdr clan, located next to Deosil County. It is home to the **Elysium**, one of the most significant cemeteries built in the country, and was constructed during the early years. It stands as one of the most historical landmarks in the clan.

## Deosil

**Deosil County** is the heart of the Galdr Clan. As the largest county, it is home to the only city in the district, **Poillon**, with a population of over 124,688. Most of the population are middle-class citizens, noble families, magicians, and tourists.

There are five districts in Poillon: **Lanercrost**, **Norburry**, **Bergelon**, **Wengarde**, and **Epinoit**.

**Lanercrost** is the Central District of Deosil, where **Corbeau Castle** and **Ostara Hall** stand in attention. The magnificent architecture of the two most important structures can be seen even past the gates of Galdr. Lanercrost is where the Galderian Royal Family resides.

**Epinoit** is the Eastern District of Deosil, where the upper-class lives. Intricate and luxurious homes decorate this precinct.

**Norburry** is the Northern District of Deosil, where the middle-class lives. This area is brimming with stores and shops, and the streets of this district all wind into intricate alleyways.

**Bergelon** is the Southern District of Deosil. This district constitutes tall, looming towers where the most powerful magicians reside, and the well-known Galdr Institution of Magic is located here.

**Wengarde**, the Western District of Deosil, is home to the royal guards that patrol Galdr.

## Eostre

**Eostre County** is the power head of the Galdr Clan. Home to over 242,347 people, it has produced the highest rate of magicians in all clan history. The population primarily consists of academic students and merchants.

There are three city districts in Eostre: **Fayfalls**, **Mossley**, and **Stillhill**.

**Fayfalls** and **Stillhill** used to be one city, but the people had divided themselves between the **Athame** and the **Boline** due to the war years ago. And even after the war, it has remained separated to this day.

Though the citizens insist on their differences, the two cities are home to private and public schools specializing in the magic arts.

**Stillhill** focuses on the clan’s military prowess. The **Stillhill Army Camp Program** has consistently produced the best soldiers and knights in the clan.
