 ==== The Dwarven Kingdoms ====
 The **Longbeards** are a rich, traditionalist, isolationist, Dwarven nation. They are governed by a High King.
-The **Redbeards** are an openly communist* Dwarven nation and are ruled by a Comrade Prince. They engage with the outside world a lot, to the point that there is a large guest worker program in Urr. Their political learnings and weakness to bribery makes them somewhat suspect though. The **Gnomes** are a bit odd. They are ruled by a female emperor who claims to be a goddess. They claim to be our great friends for some inexplicable reason and seem to mean it as well. A generation ago the graduating class of //Lady Wanda's prep school for tweens of good character// was on its way to visit the Gnomish vineyards for their first wine tasting. They got intercepted by a large Orcish war party looking to practice umm.. let's call it white slavery. They were rescued by the Gnomes in a dazzling display of combined magic and military might. The Gnomes have close ties to the Temple Hermits and have something to do with that stupid Ziggurat. Recently they & the Hermits installed a weird network of overground pipes that run all over Urr. They claim it is intended to fight fires. We'll keep using the fire brigade, thank you very much.

-*Dwarves are natural communists: they are all workaholics, obsessed with achieving high standards of quality and somewhat penny pinching. So they all collectively work very hard, to create magnificent stuff and to accumulate great wealth, which they then admire, while not using it, beyond displaying some of it and that makes them very happy.

 ==== The Orcs ====
 They call themselves the Free Folk. They are a basic band of lawless roving barbarians living in the hills. They make halfway decent soldiers, maybe hire them ourselves, before the invaders get the idea. Some of them live in the City though and serve to clean the sewage pipes and the like...
