About

A small, but growing independent fiefdom of the Ta'rel Clan, founded in 748 YG. This town is an independent settlement owing no allegiance to any nation. The town is named after its founder, the self proclaimed knight, Fadhel Ta'rel, originally a mercenary from Aralia. The nation's flag was adapted from the original mercenary company flag - a sand tra with wings unfolded in gold before a pair of grey mountains flanking a winding river in blue.

Dominant Culture

While the founding population of Fahdel's Purchase are of Aralian origins, they share a common desire to make their own way, and have shifted towards a more feudal structure.

Geographic Area

The Territory claimed by Fahdel's Purchase includes the primary fjord at the Western end of the the Sildar Mountains, and the entirety its the associated watershed. A few village-sized outposts have expanded over the easier mountain passes, and along the coast into nearby smaller coves and fjords.

Population

The majority population is Treahni of ethnic Aralian origin, including a small number of Drolac whom were members of the founder's mercenary company. In the decades since the founding, few immigrants from other ethnic groups, notably Krolaryn or Iskandean, have made their home within Fahdel's Purchase, and a minor population of Qulani have even surfaced to dwell in the town of White Wall.
