Andoran

Andoran was the most recent defector from Taldor, and one that boasts the grandest experiment to date. Fed up with issues in taxation and distant dominion of an empire, Andoran declared its independence and established a democratic republic of states. A federal system, independence, and innovation in thought, Andoran became a place to be dreamed of. Although Taldor’s emperor still has not given up on taking it back, the stalemate in place that requires both nations’ power to keep the Earthrend at bay preserves the political situation. And, even if that trouble were to be removed, Taldor may have a harder time tackling the hardy nation of dreamers than it could ever anticipate.
