Ket is the frontier state of the Baklunish and a trading
center between eastern Flanaess and the world
beyond. For many decades it has alternately menaced
the Oeridian/Suloise states east and south and threatened
them by invasion. Despite this continual warfare,
the land flourished due to the rich trade with the Paynim
tribes, Tusmit, Ekbir, Perrenland, Bissel,
and Veluna. Goods from Zeif and Wintershiven pass
through Lopolla. This mixture of cultures includes
the people themselves, for the Ketites are of mixed racial stock,
albeit of Baklunish culture for the most part.

The court of the Beygraf is a strange mixture of
eastern and western influences. This admixture pervades
the military as well, for the Ketites field a
strong force of pikes and crossbows along with their
light horse archers and medium lancers. The army is
well honed, for despite racial ties and trade, the Paynim
clans often raid the border country west of the Tuflik River.
