Semphar

Semphar, also spelled Semphâr, was the mightiest nation in the Hordelands.

Government
It was officially considered the easternmost holding of Mulhorand, but remained semiautonomous for some time, existing practically as a satrap of the Tuigan Khahan.

Geography
Semphar was known for its ruins, lost tombs, and strange monsters. Bordering it were the ruins of Raudor and Bhaluin, the dark forest of the Shalhoond, and the monsters of the Howling Gap. Perhaps there are even more wonders to be found throughout the land.

Flora & Fauna
Fearsome dire horses were known to roam Semphar wilderness, inspiring fear, awe, folk tales, and even cultist veneration.

Semphar strove to be independent but was subjugated by four different realms in its history, specifically the Imaskari, Mulhorand, Shou Lung, and most recently the Tuigan. This subjugation though, guaranteed that Semphar gained several beneficial cultural aspects.

Trade
Trade in Semphar was based mostly around the caravans that passed through the nation along the Silk Road, as well as the rich agriculture of its lands.
