Agthar

Agthar is a sovereign state on the westernmost peninsula. It is a largely agricultural state, and is the domain of Thethius-Manaar, the Great Deceiver. The capital city of Agthar is Pallam, built on the banks of the Agvar River. Pallam houses Thethius' holy citadel.

Agthar is generally a peaceful nation, preferring to stay out of the affairs of other states. Agthar makes its profits by selling grains and vegetables to other nations. Being a relatively warm state, particularlly during the harvest season, Agathar does not produce many textiles.

Agthar is not a tourist nation, and the natives are not used to seeing strangers. While the natives speak the standard language of Roa, they also have their own langauge - Agtharis. They use this language when they don't want to be understood by outsiders. It is the hardest language to learn, as it - like the god whose rules the domain - is subject to the speaker's whims. The structure of the language changes often.

Agthar has a basic monetarial system. The state has two sorts of coins: Maars and Thethians. The Maar coin is roughly an inch in diameter and about 1/16 of an inch thick. The coin is bronze and bears the lengendary mark of the Hythar beast. Two hundred Maars is equivalent to one Thethian. The Thethian coin is roughly an inch and a half in diameter and about the same thickness of a Maar. The Thethian is made out of pure silver and bears an engraving of Thethius' citadel.

Crime in Agthar is relatively low, and the nation army is small and unexperienced. Only the Royal Guard is well-trained, and the holy citadel is virtually impenetrabe (due in no small part to the fact that the doors and corridors inside the citadel constantly change).
