The County of Urnst is populated by a mixture of
peoples, most being of Oerid stock, but hostile toward
the Aerdi, unwilling to serve a Nyrondal monarch.
The Palatine Duke of Urnst long encouraged separatists
in the county above, and eventually the King of Nyrond
was forced to agree to a separation of this
state from the kingdom. The land to the great bend of
the Artonsamay, south to the Franz, to the shores of <l>
Nyr Dyv is ruled by the House of Gellor, whose current
representative is the Countess Belissica. The
county is allied to and under the protection of the Duchy of Urnst,

lands into one realm).
The county maintains a small but efficient squadron of warships on the Nyr Dyv. <l>
An army of some 2,000 horse & foot garrisons the
key strongholds, and noble levies can raise 10 times that #number# of troops in a week or two.
