The Divided Regions of Bestaria

In 6730 this area of Duthgar gained its independence from Duthgar as they threatened to revolt if they were not allowed to become independent. This initiative was mainly pushed by The Houses of Old Vashton who had been operating quite independently from the government of Duthgar for many years although the one city and the surrounding settlements were few in number the Houses controlled a considerable amount of power and thus their threat of a revolt was taken far more seriously. After many years of negotiations proposed treaties eventually the DRB became its own independent state and set Old Vashton up as its capital and instigated the ruler ship of the newly formed Visible Council and in the newly renovated parliament buildings known as the Tridecagon. Officially Duthgar and the DRB are now peaceful neighbours but things that were promised on both sides during negotiations are very slow to materialise and the far small DRB with limited resources and even further limited external trading options, economically the DRB has suffered more than Duthgar through the transition period. this has resulted in many residents from the DRB migrating south to Duthgar (which has been incentivised by Duthgar) making the whole situation worse for the DRB.

Bestaria is some what divided into the East and West by a region poor quality farming land that has caused most of the settlements to be either side, this is a result of the large Northern Fernthen Forest and the Delwen Swamp and Ryin Forest.
