History and Relations
The kingdom has been the heart of ancient Benevan culture for around 2000 years, and was formed in its modern state after the Benevis Empire broke apart in 550AL after the assassination of Emperor Halartus Benevarus. Most people in Granland are of local ethnicity. Granland has been politically and militarily threatened by Umberia for a long time, and Granland uses its remote location and political hostility to keep a sort of neutral peace on the island of Nor. They are interested in the Leren Alliance. Granland mainly exports hide.
Military and Art
Granlanders are known for employing the use of hill raiders, who specialise in guerrilla warfare in the rugged highlands, and go through very intensive training. Common architectural features include remnants of the makeshift defenses they were said to be able to erect overnight, and sod and earthen houses, and their most known artforms are their challenging rites of passage.
