Küfara (or Kufara in English) is the capital of the Holy Kingdom of Nordia. It was founded in 1690 AN following the unification of Nordia and founding of the kingdom.
History
While not officially becoming a city until 1690 AN, Küfara has been a functioning settlement and homeland to the Nords since the beginning of recorded history.
Pre-Nordia
Prior to Nord unification, what is now Küfara was then a small island settlement home to some 3,000 ethnic Nords. These Nords are believed to have come from the mainland sometime in the 13th-15th centuries, though some archaeological evidence points to them having lived on the island for hundreds of years prior to that. Once settled on the island, Küfara was founded, first unofficially as a small settler camp, then later as a township in its own right.
Following expansion by the Nords back into the mainland, Küfara gradually grew in size as the new peoples which came under Nord domionship began to immigrate to the city in mass. This, large migration also coincided with a sharp spike in birthrates which together laid the foundations for Küfara's rise as one of the region's most dominant cities.
Modern history
This growth did not go unnoticed and following the founding of the Holy Kingdom, Küfara was designated as the capital and seat of the Emissary. As a result of this, Küfara grew in size and population even more, with the major city erecting several structures and buildings to house it's new residents. Additionally, the city began sprawling outwards with suburbs and smaller villages covering the island in almost its entirety.
