East Terramar

The Republic of Terramar is a massive nature spanning from the easternmost fringes of the continent, to the cold desert to the north, to the shores on the south, and to the badlands to the west. It is a cultured place, similar to Imperial China and Rome, with great statues and structures of marble, and great innovations in medicine and machinery. Their legions are well-disciplined, and so are their people. Crimes aren't taken lightly, and politics is a tricky business. The Republic is ruled by two consuls, the supreme leaders of the Senate, who operate from the Temple of the General.

Do not completely believe it when they tell you that they are peaceful republicans who wish to bring peace. That is merely a half-truth. It's not only peace they want, but domination: to spread their culture to the barbarians and establish Human dominance on the entire planet.

Today, however, the Republic has been compromised. While former consul Legatus Ioannes was away, the Senate was overthrown a day before the elections of the new consuls when a terrorist attack succeeded with the Temple of the General being destroyed in a massive blast from a gunpowder stack laced underneath the temple, killing all within it. Katilus, an anarchistic terrorist in service of Proditor, took over the government to break it from the inside, but Legatus Ioannes took notice of this immediately, and returned from campaigning in the south. Katilus' makeshift but trained armies amassed, and stood before the Legatus. Ioannes destroyed them, and Ioannes marched on the capital of Caesarreich, but Katilus' government established a new capital in a small village by the Garmanum Forest, and the only safe way there was through the forest. And so, Ioannes crossed into the lush green embrace of the trees and the shrubbery.
