[QUOTE="Woman of Faith, post: 67907690, member: 77648"] An idea is forming. Okay a few ideas are forming. What if the overlords/higher nobility/military leaders are tied to the land much like Bram Stoker's Dracula? The Count had to carry a bit of Transylvania with him wherever he went if he ever left its borders. What if the same were true for the leading citizens of Anserak? The dark lords in the Lone Wolf series are cursed in much the same way. It would definitely tie the natives of Anserak there, as it is wholly impractical to be carrying topsoil around. Also please consider that it is the Holy Order of Pra Yer Warrior's primary mission to contain the evil in Anserak. They patrol the Anserak Mountains constantly. Maybe, just maybe they are actually pretty good at their job? Anserak is a penninsula. Surrounded by ocean on three sides and blockaded by a high and forbidding mountain range which is patrolled by the Pra Yer. I'd say it would be tough to mount any sort of effective offensive, especially if they haven't any real navy to speak of. Not many orc sailors to my knowledge. If I were evil and trapped in my own homeland by the very soil of my country, and I had the money and power to do it I'd be having research and development going constantly to find some way around that particular foible. That would be my main focus. That and watching my back versus the other evil warlords in the region. Like Scotland, and many other countries, Anserak could have many squabbling clans that are in constant and bitter enmity with one another. That would keep folks busy. Defending one's own home while raiding other petty dictator's holdings tends to take the focus off major conquest. At the same time I'd have small personal armies out doing sorties, raids, etc. into bordering nations to probe, loot and pillage. Just a few things to consider. [/QUOTE]
