Norethrope

Norethrope is the country that lies the northest of the north, where dwarves and giants live. Its capital is Hörbriholm and Norethrope is under the rule of 3 Dwarven Kings. It currently has around 12 million inhabitants, of which 6 million live in the province Gruver.

Geography
Norethrope neighbours the country of Seasort. It lies next to the Vyle Lands, Archipos Bay, and the Icenore Sea.

One of the tallest mountain ranges in the world divides Norethrope from all the other countries: the Somni Mountains. From this humongous mountain range spring a lot of rivers. The most important ones are the Sapphire River and the Ice River. Some other notable landmarks include Sapphire Falls, the Forge, Seyrath’s Mines, and the Ice Gate Tower.

Norethrope is divided into 6 provinces: Halvöy, Bithoyr, Elvfjär, Fjelbukt, Gruver, and Isnärhav, with Thorvard Holmstein, Svartgeirr Hallmund, Hrroskel Fastulf, Skjalfulf Kolbein, Asgaud Ingimund, and Urvar Rognvald as their rulers respectively. The capital of Halvöy is Hörbriholm, Bithoyr’s capital is Gläsber, the capital of Elvfjär is Isbekkr, the one from Fjelbukt is Råndithörp, Gruver’s capital is the dwarven underground city Untergrötta, and Isnärhav has the capital Syrfell.

The three Dwarven Kings that rule Norethrope are:
 * Jaker Shipnif, king of the sea dwarves and leader of the province Isnärhav,
 * Kigniv Frostaxe, king of the snow dwarves and leader of the provinces Bithoyr, Elvfjär, and Fjelbukt.
 * Bergontyr Mountcave, king of the mountain dwarves and leader of the province Gruver.

History
Norethrope was founded in 57 NE by dwarves from the fallen state of Atlantis, 20,000 years after they were created and given life by Claeus.
 * 1487 NE: Norethrope conquers Bithoyr, land of the giants. It is now officially a part of it, but most giants do not leave.
 * 3173 NE: Seyrath meets the 40,000 year old Saurians in the Somni Mountains and makes them his allies.
 * 3213 NE: Seyrath conquers Norethrope with his new allies and starts the war two years later, when a lot of dwarves fled to Farrin.
 * 3320 NE: Seyrath loses the war and is imprisoned in the Somni Mountains after they failed to kill him. The Saurians are imprisoned there as well.
