The Five Great Kingdoms

The Rural Kingdom: The largest kingdom in terms of landmass, it covers most of the east side and a bit of the north side of Nodgien. The queen of this kingdom denied any technological advancements from High Construct. 

 They instead developed their own technology from mana, this has made it the second most powerful kingdom out of the five. Anything from High Construct is banned, but there are certain exceptions.

High Construct: It covers the full southern area of Nodgein, In terms of size; it's the second largest kingdom out of the five. The Supreme Rulers have fully abandoned magic, it's still legal to do magic; but no one can.

 The Supreme Rulers have somehow managed to remove all the mana from their environment, making spell casting nearly impossible. They're the weakest country, but also the richest. 

 They dominate the market by selling tons of products for cheap, no other country can go that low in terms of currency. Not a single other kingdom even thinks about attacking it because of how imperative it is to the economy. 

 But the biggest issue with starting war with High Construct, is that you can't use spells in that environment, giving the denizens of the city the upper hand.

Pyen Tyra: It is the most populated and the most powerful kingdom. It takes up about three fourths of the western side of Nodgein, bordering The Demi Kingdom. 

 It's ruled by a selfish monarch who's gained pseudo Immortality over the years, and has ruled for centuries. He's deemed everyone else unfit for the secret to immortality and won't give it up, and because of this; it's considered lost to history.

 The tyrant ruler only cares about the strength of his kingdom, only giving the citizens just what they need to pull through and be happy enough to stay. He has only instated rules that benefit himself, so light murder and slavery is fair game. 

 This kingdom despises demi humans, and anyone found harboring them will be forced into slavery as well. The Tyrant lord himself holds no hate for demi humans, he just doesn't care about them; or any species for example.

The Wyrm Tribes: The Wyrm Tribes have claimed most of the northern side of Nodgein, but they only have civilization on about half of it. They know a special type of magic that transforms willing wyrms into buildings, or anything else they desire. 

 They have seldom contact with the other kingdoms, and most live out their lives thinking that their kingdom is the only kingdom in existence. This means marriage between humans and wyrms is encouraged, but because of this; there's only a miniscule amount of pure humans left in the north.

 Any random villager has the strength of a hundred men, but wyrms are bad at reproducing and the people of The Wyrm Tribes have inherited that awful trait, there's few left and their population count drops with every year; soon they'll be an extinct race. 

The Demi Kingdom: It's a band of ragtag demi humans who have escaped slavery, they started out small; but now they've united all the other demi human groups and have become the fifth kindom of Nodgen. They're now solidifying and arming their kingdom in preparation to fight against Pyen Tyra.

 A war between the two factions was always inevitable and the chances of the demi humans winning is slim, but they have hope that they'll pull through to rid the land of slavery.

Nodgien: The continent that the five great kingdoms reside in, it's the biggest out of of all three remaining continents.

Pronunciation: Nodgien is na-zjen and Pyen Tyra is pyen-tier-ra.
