History and Culture
Much of the Andilarian Empire used to be part of loose feudal monarchical entities, starting with the Shirithian lands of Nynchara and the Kingdom of Uantir. Much of the traditions, such as a strong appetite for military matters and bloodsports, and a strong hierarchical societal structure, derive from this era. The Griffin, symbol adopted by the indigious Andilari that holds a strong cultural, religious and mythical meaning, derives from the Uantiri era. In later years, the Palesh tribe gained prominence over a large part of the current Andilarian territory. In 1670, the Iron Company arrived on the island of Angár, where they established a trading post that grew into the city of Andilar, which became the namesake of the current Empire. Building upon the trading infrastructure of the Iron Company, the Calbain colonised the Empire in the late 17th century.
