	One of the most notable Eldenvarian communities outside Eldenvar is found in [[Thundarum]]. The southwestern region of Thundarum is home to a substantial Eldenvarian population, where they have even established their own kingdoms. These Eldenvarian kingdoms have forged important alliances with local Thundarite communities, fostering mutual aid and protection. These alliances are built on shared interests and a common goal of stability and prosperity in the region. In contrast, the northeastern part of Thundarum is dominated by an infamous Eldenvarian kingdom known for its ruthless and tyrannical rule. This kingdom stands as a stark reminder of the potential for power to corrupt, casting a shadow over the otherwise cooperative spirit seen in the southwest.

	Social hierarchy is clearly defined in Eldenvarian society, but it is also fluid enough to allow for mobility based on merit and achievement. Nobility and commoners coexist harmoniously, each group contributing to the overall well-being of their society. Nobles, comprising wealthy merchants or skilled artisans, hold significant influence and responsibility, guiding both economic and social policies. They are expected to protect and uplift commoners, who, in turn, respect the authority of their leaders.

They are expected to protect and uplift commoners, who, in turn, respect the authority of their leaders.

	Society is grandly organized into expansive kingdoms, each governed by a ~~king~~ or ~~queen~~ who holds the highest authority. The royal title is typically inherited by the eldest son or daughter of the reigning monarch, ensuring a continuous line of succession. However, in a few kingdoms, the king retains the right to choose his successor from among his children, or even other relatives, selecting the one he deems most meritorious to inherit the throne.		Society is grandly organized into expansive kingdoms, each governed by a '''King''' or '''Queen''' who holds the highest authority.

However, in a few kingdoms, the king retains the right to choose his successor from among his children, or even other relatives, selecting the one he deems most meritorious to inherit the throne.

	Under the watchful eyes of the monarchs, noble families play crucial roles in governing the various regions of the kingdom. These nobles are bestowed with titles of varying ranks, such as Dukes, Marquises, Counts, and Barons, each title descending in order of power and responsibility. The highest of these, the Dukes, wield considerable influence, overseeing vast territories and holding significant sway in matters of state. Marquises and Counts manage substantial regions, their authority respected and their leadership essential to the kingdom's stability. Barons, though lower in rank, still command respect and are responsible for the well-being of their designated areas.

	At the entry point to nobility by merit is the title of Knight, the stepping stone for commoners who have proven their valor, wisdom, or exceptional service. Achieving knighthood is a moment of great pride and marks the beginning of a noble journey for many Eldenvarians. These knights, though starting at the bottom of the noble hierarchy, play a vital role in the defense and administration of the kingdom.

	Each noble, regardless of rank, bears the solemn duty to oversee the well-being of the people within their jurisdiction. They ensure the maintenance of order, the administration of justice, and the prosperity of their lands. Their estates are not just centers of power but also hubs of cultural and social life. Community gatherings, festivals, and market days are vibrant events where all members, regardless of status, come together to celebrate, trade, and share news. These occasions reinforce social bonds and foster a sense of unity, creating a cohesive and harmonious society. During these communal events, the air is filled with laughter, music, and lively conversation. Stalls brimming with goods line the streets, and the scent of exotic foods wafts through the air. Nobles and commoners alike mingle, exchanging goods, stories, and ideas. Children play together, learning the values of cooperation and respect from an early age, while elders share their wisdom, ensuring that traditions and knowledge are passed down through the generations.

Training in the Eldenvarian military begins at a young age, with prospective soldiers learning the basics of combat and strategy. As they progress, they receive specialized training in various disciplines, from swordsmanship and archery to the arcane arts of battlefield magic. This comprehensive approach to training ensures that Eldenvarian soldiers are well-rounded and capable of handling a wide range of combat scenarios.

	Their cities, bustling with life and commerce, also function as logistical hubs supporting their military endeavors. Craftsmen produce weapons and armor of high quality, while scholars and tacticians ~~work together~~ to develop new strategies and technologies. This integration of civilian and military efforts ensures that Eldenvarian armies are well-supplied and innovative, always ready to meet new challenges.		Eldenvarian military leaders are chosen for their tactical prowess and ability to inspire their troops. These leaders, often coming from noble families, are trained in both the art of war and the intricacies of diplomacy. They understand that a successful military campaign relies not only on brute strength but also on the ability to outmaneuver the enemy and maintain the morale of their forces.

			Eldenvarian military strategies often involve a combination of direct confrontation and subtle tactics. They are adept at using the terrain to their advantage, setting ambushes, and employing psychological warfare to unsettle their enemies. Their engineers and siege experts develop innovative technologies to breach enemy fortifications and defend their own.

			Naval forces also play a crucial role in Eldenvarian military strategy. Their fleets patrol the seas, protecting trade routes and ensuring the security of their coastal territories. Eldenvarian ships are known for their speed and maneuverability, often equipped with advanced weaponry and manned by skilled sailors.

			The Eldenvarian military is trained in a wide array of weapons, from bows and lances to maces and axes, allowing for versatile platoons built around different weapon strategies. However, the weapon of choice remains the sword. Whether wielding a longsword or a shortsword, every warrior carries one, regardless of their primary weapon. This preference for swords underscores their cultural and tactical importance. Heavy armors and shields are also common, providing robust protection in the heat of battle.

			Their cities, bustling with life and commerce, also function as logistical hubs supporting their military endeavors. Craftsmen produce weapons and armor of high quality, while scholars and tacticians collaborate to develop new strategies and technologies. This integration of civilian and military efforts ensures that Eldenvarian armies are well-supplied and innovative, always ready to meet new challenges.

			Cities are also built with military defense in mind. Important cities usually feature garrisons, moats, and defensive walls, and are prepared to sustain long sieges. These fortifications are not just physical barriers but symbols of the strength and resilience of the Eldenvarian people. The defensive architecture blends seamlessly with the city's aesthetic, creating a landscape where beauty and practicality coexist. Towers and ramparts provide strategic vantage points, while gates are fortified with robust mechanisms to withstand prolonged assaults. Within these walls, the citizens of Eldenvar feel secure, knowing that their cities are designed to protect and endure.

			The Eldenvarian military is not only a force for defense but also a tool for maintaining internal order. Garrisoned in key locations across the kingdom, soldiers ensure the enforcement of laws and protect citizens from external threats and internal unrest. Their presence in the cities and towns is a constant reminder of the strength and stability of the Eldenvarian state.

			Despite their formidable capabilities, Eldenvarians value peace and diplomacy. They prefer to resolve conflicts through negotiation and alliance-building, resorting to military action only when absolutely necessary. This balanced approach to warfare, coupled with their strategic brilliance and resilient spirit, makes the Eldenvarian military a cornerstone of their enduring civilization.

			In Eldenvar, the art of war is more than just a means of conquest; it is a discipline that embodies their values of honor, resilience, and strategic thinking. Their military forces stand as a testament to their commitment to protecting their land and people, ensuring the legacy of Eldenvar endures through the ages.
