Refer to the Nine Realms Historical Timeline.
Demography and Population
The Elasvura Republic is a very diverse nation, with almost all races in the lands. The majority of the population resides inside of the city, with very little outside of settlements.
Territories
Elasvura was originally an individual city (a city state), but after a few decades of existence they decided to expand into untaken land. From there, they have kept the same territory- slowly developing the settlements in their borders.
Military
The Elasvura Republic does not have a military in peacetime. Instead, they draft large portions of the population whenever war comes about. If the population is not enough the nation will hire Halen mercenaries.
The weaponry of Elasvura is not streamlined whatsoever, as everyone who reaches the (human) age of sixteen must smith themselves a weapon. This marks the point in their life when they can be drafted. Anyone over the (human) age of fifty-five cannot be drafted.
Technological Level
Elasvura is scientifically renowned, but technologically not as much.
Religion

Foreign Relations
Elasvura has a long and tarnished relationship with the Greidr Republic. The two nations have fought for centuries, but only the Greidr have started wars between them. Greidr has long-sought control over the mainland.
Elasvura has a (quite recent) friendly relationship with the Halen Democracy. Elasvura tends to hire Halen pirates as mercenary forces to fight for them during wars.
Agriculture & Industry
Elasvura makes their money primarily from fish, oil, and the only gunpowder in Denaunt.
Education
At age five all children in Elasvura are required to attend school. They will then carry on all the way until they smith their first weapon, marking their maturity.
Mythology & Lore
The largest myth surrounding Elasvura is of Romas Bloodhammer, the founder of the former city state. Romas Bloodhammer was said to rally the people of a small settlement for the first Elasvuran draft. Orcish raiders launched an attack on the settlement- nearly winning the ensuing battle. Romas Bloodhammer lifted his sword to charge into combat, but something suddenly stuck his blade. A lightning bolt sent down from Tilleas himself to bless Romas. The blade turned into a warhammer that trapped the souls of those it slew.
