Kingdom of Niton
Structure
Niton is a monarchy, with a king as the head of the state. The monarch is chosen based on their strength. The nobles of Niton are chosen based on their skill at smithing as well. They are responsible for overseeing different aspects of the kingdom, such as military defense, trade, and diplomacy. The monarch haves a council of advisors made up of the most respected and skilled smiths in the kingdom. This council helps the monarch make important decisions and guide the kingdom in times of crisis.
Culture
They have a strong sense of community and loyalty to each other. They are more likely to help each other out and work together towards common goals. Smithing is also a central aspect of Niton's culture, as the Dracon are known for being skilled smiths. The Dracon are known for their intelligence and skill, and take pride in their work. They have a strong work ethic and are willing to put in long hours to achieve their goals.
Public Agenda
Since the Dracon are known for their exceptional skill in smithing, Niton prioritizes the promotion and development of their craft. This involves creating guilds, workshops, and apprenticeships to train new smiths, as well as investing in research and innovation to improve their techniques. As outcasts who have faced discrimination in the past, the Dracon place a high value on defense and security. Niton also prioritizes the development of a strong military and investing in technologies that will protect them from outside threats.
History
After the Dracon were created to help defeat the gods and they did their job. They were seen as abominations not fit to live in any society created by the gods. So the remaining Dracon from the final battle fled to the mountains to the south and decided to live there learning the craft of smithing and perfecting it. They became the first Dracon kingdom on Pelo. Once settled into the mountains they focused on becoming self sufficient as they knew no one would want to trade or form any sort of alliance. They also did not want tot sell their smithed goods to anyone as they thought they would be taken advantage of and used for their prowess in the profession. This worked for some time but the population just kept growing and growing making it hard to be self sufficient. So they formed a group of settlers to settle new mountains close by to the north becoming their own kingdom. After awhile they started to form a friendship with the King of Peleponisia, Koberic Haliber, teaching him their language and a bit about smithing. Trade was opened between Peleponisia and Niton but they were still weary of trading their crafted goods. Now they begin to improve relations with Peleponisia and the Haliber family whilst growing into a new power of Pelo.

They are spread out in massive caves they formed in the mountains that hold a village, town, or city and even sometimes two separate towns or villages. The birth death rate is 4.3/1 with a population of 2,995,432

Agriculture & Industry
Their biggest industry is the black smith industry and the mining industry as they go hand and hand. Mineral making and ore refining is also another big industry in the kingdom. They do have small farming villages on the base of the mountains which help provide them with food along with hunting huts but they are small industries compared to their main ones.
Trade & Transport
The kingdom has a network of travel caves that connect each village, town, and city which they use for travel and to trade internally. Since recently the Kingdom of Peleponisia opened trade with them they have developed a network of roads on the mountain sides leading to all the major cities.
Education
The education level is above average as the species is naturally an intelligent race. They are all taught the way of the anvil but not all actually get jobs as blacksmiths. Some further their education in what work they are going to do.
