The brilliance of Talmare's peoples has yet to be outmatched. In antiquity, the Talmari were sailors, explorers and imperialists, and once the Rulers of Scoria. But in their enlightenment, casting aside the sickening dogma of warring Kings, their fates would be decided by man, not god, and embraced democracy and nurtured ideologies into powerful republics.

As the heralds of freedom, Talmare also hosts the capital of the United Nations, a testament to the bloody wars fought and won in the name of democracy.
