Etymology

Helderbourgh was founded by Treiso-Batavians and means 'Bright City' in the local dialect. The name for the city comes, in turn, from the name of the mountain which it is situated upon, the Helderberg, or Bright Mountain.

Geography

The Grand Duchy encompasses roughly the southwestern quarter of Cibola, including the central and southern islands, except for Birgeshir and Caputia Monovia.

History

Helderbourgh arose as a result of a protracted civil war within the United Principalities of Treisenberg. During the events of the White Plague, Treisenberg's principalities began to war with one another. In particular they came into conflict with the fanatical crusaders of Bretalyon. Helderberg Mountain became a refuge for those escaping the pillage wrought by the Knights. Soon the number of refugees became so great that the village and then city of Helderbourgh arose on the mountaintop. After the Grand Commander of the Knights was assassinated, the Bretalois sued for peace and the country was reorganized. With many cities utterly destroyed and others still in flames, Helderbourgh became the new center of the country.
