Mu Lou.
One of the twenty-three nations in the Northern Region, it is located in the southern border of Xuanlong, with a stretched-out, slim territory that clings to Xuanlong like a strip of malleable cloth.
Despite its notorious reputation as a weak state, Mu Lou had its moment of glory over the past thirty years. With a vast territory and a strong, thriving military, it was acknowledged as a formidable power among the twenty-three countries.
However, due to the ruler's excessive scheming, and constant habit of making inappropriate jokes that displeased Xuanlong, it brought about a drastic change.
Xiongchu, Wu Zhou, and Qi Yan, the three ruffian states initiated the attacks after a signals from their de facto leader. Over ten small puppet countries formed an alliance, seizing and dividing over ninety percent of Mu Lou's territory.
