What follows is a short list of notes on the Kingdom of Beria. Please feel free to question them, and if you have suggestions for further development for these then please post them!
Beria is a small kingdom on the eastern shore of Celenor, bordered to the north by the Free Kingdom of Raudia, to the west and south by provinces of the Ionian Empire, and to the east by the Eldaran Ocean.
The population of Beria is majority Human (around 54%), but with significant populations of Elves, Dwarves, and Half-Elves (making up around 30% combined).
The nation thrives as a trading nation, acting as a way point between Raudia, Ionia and the ports on the Eldaran Ocean. Some of its neighbours disparage Beria as a nation of shopkeepers but Berians are proud of their open and welcome attitude to trade.
Beria is a key exporter of dragonstone, marble and iron-ore. However Beria's major export is its fine wines, with Berian Goldwhist reputedly being the Emperor's favourite tipple.
The land experiences a fine temperate climate with generally mild winters and warm (but not too hot) summers, all moderated by the weather coming in off the Eldaran Ocean.
Beria is ruled by a hereditary monarch, with the throne currently occupied by Raunad III of House Almer. House Almer inherited the throne from the now extinct House Jelmar through marriage 134 years ago.
