The Duchy of Emberlain

Emberlain is one of the largest human duchies but is sparsely populated. It has two distinct regions, the coast and the interior. The interior consists of small, scattered farming villages, which produce grain and commercial crops such as cotton. However, the majority of the population lives along the coast or even on the sea. The people of Emberlain primarily survive on fish and sea vegetables, such as seaweed and sea cucumbers. It's economy relies on trade. The duchy of Emberlain borders Middenlund, Ymaire, Vadran, and Therin.

Emberlain is notable because it is the only duchy that does not have barons. The duke of Emberlain, also known as "The Sea King", has reclaimed the title of the squabbling interior nobility. It is said that he has enough power to secede from the Empire but so far hasn't made any effort to do so.

While the lands of Emberlain have few residents, the sea is full of them. It is said that if every son and daughter of Emberlain returned to its shores at once, they wouldn't have room to stand. They are regarded as the finest sailors in the world and are responsible for the recent discovery of Addic Isle. The coastal cities of Emberlain are the only places on the mainland that have large gnomish populations.
