REGION OVERVIEW
Nastiabach is a militaristic region that borders Sovereign Shores. The region was the strongest on the continent following the fall of Sollovast, but fell in grandeur over time due to political decay and the rapid development of rival nations. Nastiabach led an army against Sovereign Shores during the time of Thellen Brightborn and was thoroughly defeated. They conceded to Thellen's superiority and joinied in his unification of the continent. The people of Nastiabach have carried this national shame with them through the generations. In recent years the nation has begun to rebel against King Abellon Brightborn and his rule over Nastiabach.
GEOGRAPHY
Nastiabach has varied topography, with forests to the north, plains in the center and swampy areas further south. It is bordered on the west and east by the great Cobast and King's Reach rivers, and at the southern border lies the archipelago of the Splintered Coast.
DEMOGRAPHIC
90% Human, 5% Goblin, 5% Dwarf
RULING
The head of state is the Archduke of Nastiabach. The Archduke has the power to appoint prime ministers and senior officials, convene and dissolve parliament, declare war, make peace, and is the supreme commander of the army. The current leader of the nation is the Hero Thaddeus, the only known vampire in Vathria, with ambitions as great as his lifespan.
The prime minister of the kingdom answers only to the Archduke. Legislative power belongs to Congress, but the Prime Minister has veto power. Members of Congress are elected by popular vote.

MAIN BELIEFS
The people of Nastiabach share in the common belief of God Oriani. Their interpretation of Oriani's will differed from the other Human groups that left Sollovast millennia ago, and as such formed a church that would reflect their beliefs. The King's Church of Sovereign Shores made their presence felt in the region following Thellen's unification of the continent.
ACTIVE FACTIONS
CLIMATE

Winters are long and there are more cloudy days than sunny ones, and summers are short, with only about two weeks of heat.
