The Kingdom of Arurid is controlled by their king, King Trance the fourth. The first king, King Trance originally who was a merchant, bought the surrounding lands from lords and nobles. Arurid lands were originally believed to be no good, making them useless overall. Therefore, he bought them cheap and begins building and setting the groundwork. After a decade, his hard work materialize. Farms were constructed, tourist attractions and much more.
After gaining so much money and power from his lands, Trance declares himself as king. The lords and nobles of the area declare war. However, King Trance the first knew of this ahead of time and set up castles, fortresses, and terrain traps. Creating a long and costly war for the aggressive, while he used this chance to make his economy boom by investing in businesses that created weapons and materials. King Trance slowly purchased the nearby nobles, and expanded. By the third king of Arurid, the war ended and now controls all the land that once attacked.
King Trance the fourth is considered and naive, as he took over at the young age of 9 as the third king had died mysteriously. He was found dead lying in bed. There is no other official report on his death. While the king is still adolescent, the kingdom is governing by the prime minister and the pope. The two work closely while also educating the young king. Since of this change, the officials call it the golden age of Arurid. They claim 96% of the population is working. Death rate is down from all causes and high moral is sky within the kingdom.
However, this is merely true for humans. Officials and Pope push forward humans being the strongest and smartest race in the world. The minority races are treated poorly and most are slaves. Those who are not slaves are shunned in the country and treated like third class citizens. If an Elf is killed, there is very little investigation or mention from the media. While any human who dies would quickly spread around the town and authority find someone to blame. It is common for authority to blame a minority.
Tension is high from all sides. The kingdom is still considered new and can go in a number of directions. However, is there anyone out there who can make a difference in the world? Maybe someone to out there for the better or perhaps to make things worse and continue to send the nation to a dark route? Only time will tell these things.
