Countries, states and cultures: Kusdrova, Republic of Kusdrova

Fairly small but proud and very independently minded merchant republic.

A place that blends several local cultural influences.




Full name: Republic of Kusdrova

Type: City state with elements of a small territorial state. A municipal-and-aristocratic republic.

Demonym: Kusdrovan, Kusdrovian

Capital city: Kusdrovik

Description: A small coastal country directly to the south of Rvača, the republic of Kusdrova consists mainly of people speaking in a local dialect of the Rvačan language and another local dialect influenced by long historical ties to the maritime regions and states on the western coast of Montoverde. The obvious capital and crucial part of the very small country is the old coastal city of Kusdrovik, a trade hub and naval hub since the days of the late Old Empire. The Republic of Kusdrova is one of the founding members of the Urban League. Translated from Archontic, Kusdrova's country motto states, “Having some gold is fine and all, but we ain't parting with our freedom for gold !”.

Real world frame of reference: Primarily the history and geography of the small Republic of Ragusa, centered on the famous city of Dubrovnik (nowadays at the southern tip of Croatia). The motto is, of course, a gentle parody of the real world motto of the Ragusan republic.

City NPCs of Kusdrovan origins: TBA
