== Developing Brookshire ==
 
Brookshire did not have a detailed culture as a separate Duchy for quite some time; while some of its subdivisions such as [[Benacia]] did, general Brookshirian culture ''was'' Shirithian culture. However, late 2007 and onward saw the increased development of various cultural and political aspects of Brookshire both on the Duchy level and in the various baronies and counties.


== Economy ==
== Economy ==


The highlights of Brookshirian economy are the oil fields of [[Amarr]] and [[Thanatos]], the enormous amounts of heavy industry around Shirekeep and Monty Crisco and the mines feeding that industry in Woodshire and Caverden, the great fields of Syrelwynn, Holwinn and Ran and the high-intensity agriculture around Alexandretta. Although most of Goldshire's mines have been depleted in historical times, new veins are still regularly found in [[Lunaris]].
== Baronies ==
The Baronies Within Brookshire are Currently: [[Barony of Ynnraile]], [[Barony of Neurak]], [[Barony of Dolor]], [[Barony of K'Tzuni]], and [[Barony of Lakhesis]]. Brookshire formerly held a Special Military Territory called the [[Skyla Islands]], but Kaiseress Anandja I decreed the islands to be a part of the Imperial County, thus under the Kaiser(ess)'s direct control.
== Military ==
The military forces of the duchy are comprised of the various militia of the baronies and counties within the Duchy, Including the [[Monty Crisco]] Airborne Militia and the [[Benacian County Militia]]. The only force under the direct control of the duchy as a whole is [[The Brookshire Fleet]], which was assembled in 2008 of the various ships and vessels under the duchy's control. This includes the oldest ship in the Shireroth navy, the ''[[RSS Excalibur]]''.
