Overview

A trading nation , Aralia has been at war with Tabras for the majority of the last century. The Plains of Tekara, seem to be the focus of this dispute. While neither side is willing to make a full effort to resolve the conflict, neither is willing to back down. The majority of traders accept this ongoing strife as a fact of life, and continue to do business with Tabrani merchants as long as there is still a profit in it. This fact alone suggests that the fighting is merely an excuse to keep both countries economies fluid and stable.

Material wealth rules supreme in Aralia, and the majority of residents are merchants to some capacity. Scholars are also quite common, as sometimes knowledge is a most valuable commodity.

Currency

The base currency of Aralia is the kopin (“full-penny”). Larger denominations such as the ta-kopin (“two-penny”), or the much larger talin (“ten-penny”) are also common. All Aralian currency bears a likeness of the aralian snow lily. Due to the high frequency of merchants in Aralia, every house of measure has coins or trade bars minted with the family crest. These are seldom found outside of Aralia’s borders due to the variable value of such currency.

Role of Guilds

Military

Aralia’s military is composed mostly of hired soldiers. Since the pay is good, the life of a soldier is not as unpleasant as in some other nations. Many noble houses within Aralia maintain small standing militias of their own, which may be called upon to defend the nation, swelling the ranks of the already substantial army.
