Brish {Briland}
For hundreds of years The Brish people of Briland has used there island to the breaking point. One must travel very north and hours away from the closest town, to find the very small untouched nature. Else where in Briland cities are tightly packed There is hardly any separation from factories and homes on the lower class. Those lucky enough to be Middle class can at least see a lack of factory smoke stacks in their town, Tho the rare and few upper class non-noble people have small yards, trees, and grass. Maybe even a glimse of blue sky.
Only the Noble families of Briland are well off enough to have personal gradens, yarns, forest, on there own land. Of course those with not noble blood can't enojoy these yarns.
