The Empire of Letonna, or simply Letonna, is large nation on the south eastern continent of Parvusia. There are no official provinces, states or regions in the empire, but rather governing city states that have land to oversee. The Empire of Letonna has been exsistent for over 250 years, and maintains a semi-formal dynasty with the Gyth bloodline. However, only within the last 25 years has the nation banded together into a more stable and unified nation. Historically, Letonna has been a land of cold weather settlers with a strong distrust for anyone outside it's native lands.

History

When the large cold valley of present day Letonna was settled, it mainly consisted of small farming settlements that domesticated local wildlife and crops. Over many hundreds of years, many of these camps and settlements bound together in rough bands or tribes. It is estimated that these early tribes primary purpose for greater organization would be for trade and land disputes with neighboring tribes. It wouldn't be to around 1000 A.D. that the first appearance of a kingdom of several tribes, dominated by a head cheiftan or kind came about. This large kingdom, known as Per'Gath, would exist for the nest 200 years, slowly canablising neighboring kingdoms until it would encompass the most northern half of the modern size of the Nation of Letonna. At around 1600 A.D.a coup involving radical members from the more prominent towns and cities in the region overthrew the feudal government and established a 'city state parliamentary kingdom'. during the enxt 150 years, conquest from this new expansionary and conquest driven regime would grow to spread the letonnian land claim eastward to the Isenguard mountains, and southward to the sea. Due to the expansionary and aggressive nature of the Letonnian people, border conflicts were common with the Dwarven people of the Mcmasterdonian lands. At around 1750, a second and final coup, by royal ministers to the then kingdom, murdered the king and established a heridatory ruled Empire, inconcompassing almost all of Modern day Letonna. The first Emperor being Emperor Rav Gyth Leton, the most dominant of the traitorous ministers. Keeping the idea of ruling city sates to lessen the blow of governmental power shifts, but establishing a very centralized government all under the direct supervision of an administration answering to the rule of the Emperor, The Empire of Letonna was born. Although mostly unchained, the current dynasty rules to this day.

Geography

Letonna is primarily flat semi-fertile terrain, with mountains garnishing almost of all it's land borders. Northern Letonna is more fertile and features warmer climates due to being closer to the equator and having the warmer ocean shores. Harsher weather is more frequent in the more southern and colder parts of the region, often having snow fall 10 months out of a year, and near constant rain the summer months.
