Eskan Empire
The largest and most ambitious kingdom on Mistral, the Eskan Empire covers the northern section of Yoth and has expanded onto Yshval in recent years.
Their aggressive expansionism and lack of care for the land they settle on has earned them a poor reputation on a global scale. However, they are among the most technologically and magically advanced kingdoms in the world, making it impossible for other nations to cut them out of the political landscape completely.
Structure
The Emperor is the highest authority in the Eskan Empire, but he defers the majority of decision making to his High Council. This council is largely made up of high-born nobles, but there is one seat that is always occupied by an individual from the "common" folk.
Demography and Population
The majority of citizens in Eska are human, though they welcome races from across Mistral.
There are certain areas of the Empire with higher percentages of foreign races, such as the sea elf neighbourhoods of Talos or the high concentration of half-orcs and half-elves in Port Caynn. These areas tend to coincide with proximity to trading ports or other kingdoms.
Territories
The borders of Eska stretch from the most northern point of Yoth to the edge of the Rahva Steppe. Their border with the dragonborn Kingdom in the Scorched Fields is very obvious, due to the aggressive strip mining that has wrecked the landscape there.
In the last two centuries, the Eskan Empire has expanded to settle on Yshval as well, much to the annoyance of the Uzos Tribes and Kuhldor dwarves. They've built cities and towns that now occupy a small northern corner of the Ester Plains.
