Xuan Guo Dynasty

The Xuan Guo Dynasty is the current line of rulers in the country known as Xuan Guo. The provinces were unified by the founders of the dynasty hence the country itself taking its name from the line. It is the most populous of all the countries in the known world, having many more people than Tarovia despite being of similar land area.

Government
The country is ruled by emperor Qin Shi, known as 'the deathless emperor' he is a human native to the region. The deathless emperor has been ruling for the last 500 years, half of the time the dynasty has existed for. Many believe Qin Shi to be a lich but any resentment towards his rule is met quickly by 'death squads'.

Kan-Jin Peninsula
The westernmost province of Xuan Guo. Its capital is Wuuchan. This province is mostly fishermen but with a large industry in trade centred around Wuuchan. North of Wuuchan is the peninsula itself where many small fishing towns can be found.

Huang-Shi Mountains
The Huang-Shi mountains surround the province of the capital of Xuan Guo. They do not make up a province themselves but they create the borders for many other provinces. Zhaotong lies in the western Huang-Shi mountains.

Tong Province
The center of the country, where the capital Tongchang and the great palace is located. This province is characterized by huge fields of crops and long straight roads radiating from the capital. This province is encircled by a massive wall blocking it off from the outlying provinces. The wall is most well fortified in the valleys between the mountains.

Relations
The Xuan Guo Dynasty maintains good relations with all other countries in Erfendir. Since 500 years ago the emperor changed the way the country was run, ended wars, and focused on economic growth over all. The central position allows them to act as a powerful trade hub for the east. The country quickly became very powerful but also incredibly secretive, no one knows how its government works but the laws appear fair to everybody.
