Our nation was founded by Ianren the rider who was a powerful Elven mage having gained prominence for fighting against the sorceror king. The History of Arbaran is a complex and varied one. Much like Anbenncóst we are a melting pot of peoples and cultures, especially after the greentide as the adventurer companies started to  go East and refugees went west. As the outpost of Anbennar was are the bulwark against Gawed but also againts the lands broken by the Orcs. Civilization ends on our eastern border and has made us of pivitol importance to the Emperor for keeping his peace and protecting the northern and eastern borders. We were relatively uninvolved in the Lilac wars though we did back Lorent to a degree making us gain even more power due to backing hte winner and coming out unscathed. We have an opportunity that will likely not come again for a long time if ever. Let us sieze it.

With the victory of Corin over the Orcs many adventurers, mercenaries, and fortune seekers now prepare to go East. Freecestir is the unofficial gathering place for all who plan to go East and has provided us huge opportunities. Adventurers and competenent individuals are in great supply and we make connections with many who will establish nations and bring treasure back from the East. We must utilize this to our advantage.

One of the greatest guilds in the world is the Calasanni Trading Company which is run by members of our royal family. To many perhaps this would be a conflict of interest but who cares. It is useful to have such close connections to a powerful organiztaion like this. We should do our best to assist them with their exploits and incentivize the market advantage, its only good business. There is grea topportunity in the east with the slaves that come and opportunity in the West in the rediscovered land of Aletanir and why should we not benefit from both?
