Durenmyr

The southernmost duchy draws traders like flowers entice bees. The closest geographically to the Farseni Empire, they parallel the mercantile aims of their southern neighbor. A relatively young duchy, it seems to be a meritocracy with most of the nobility having been raised from successful merchant houses with the Duchess leading and riding herd on the pack. The pursuit of wealth is considered a primary virtue in these lands and even commoners are hustling to do business. Durenmyrians have trade routes throughout the kingdom and beyond. This has sometimes led them into conflict with other groups and there is a noticeable lack of Dwarven trade.
