Eldin

Structure

Like the other provinces of Hyrule, Eldin has an elected provincial governor who works with a council of representatives.

History

Eldin, like the Faron and Lanayru provinces, has been a defined part of Hyrule's makeup since ancient times. As long as the imposing form of Death Mountain has loomed on the horizon and the Goron people have rolled down its slopes, the Eldin Province has been one of the cornerstones of life in Hyrule. Although only officially incorporated into what is now considered the modern nation of Hyrule in 3 MH, Hyrulean political influence has long extended into this region.

Demography and Population

The primary inhabitants of the Eldin Province are Gorons, Hylians, and Gerudo. The Eldin Mountain Chain, and more specifically Death Mountain, is the ancestral home of the Goron people, and although some Gorons leave the province to live in other areas of the country, many still feel most at home among the rocks and magma. Gerudo immigrants gravitate towards the area due to its ample employment opportunities, and after the industrial revolution made Eldin the center of metal-based industry, there was a huge influx of Hylians in search of jobs. Zora are not often found in the aggressive climate of this province. A significant Sheikah population also live in the foothils southwest of Death Mountain, around the area of Kakariko Village.

Agriculture & Industry

Eldin is Hyrule's primary industrial power. The Eldin Mountain Chain had long been a popular place for folks to seek their fortunes, as the mountains are rich with gemstones. However, when the industrial revolution began, Eldin was transformed by the new demand for metal.
