Kizlev (Kingdom)



Kizlev is a Human nation to the east of The Empire. It lies along the border with the Lands of Chaos, and has for its history been the primary bulkwark against the western expansion of Chaos.

Early History
The history of Kizlev begins during the chaos of the four Emperor's in The Empire. During this period many regions of the Empire began speaking openly of indepandance. Kizlev was one such region.

War with Chaos
It is mainly because of this proximity to the lands of Chaos that the history of Praag is filled with conflict and strife. Time and again, hordes of Northmen have poured southward across the Lynsk river to descend upon the city with the intention of plundering its resources before razing it to the ground. These sieges are most deadly when led by a mighty Champion of the Ruinous Powers.

Geography
To the north and east of the Empire lies the wintry realm of Kizlev. A land of barren steppes and arid tundra, Kizlev is bordered by the Baltic sea (Sea of Chaos) to the west, Rus Country to the east and the Worlds Edge Mountains to the south-east and east, finally lies the Chaos Wastes to the North.

Population
The people of Kizlev are a hardy race, well used to getting by with scarce resources and grappling with the many fearsome beasts that make their home in this cold and rugged land.

Major cities
The nation of Kizlev is sparsely populated, dotted with settlements and villages that are surrounded by miles of uninhabited land. There are only three large cities in Kizlev; the capital, also called Kislev, Erengrad, and the northern city of Praag, which is closer to the dreaded Realm of Chaos than any other city in the Old World.
