The Kingdom of Ghikva, more commonly referred to as Ghikva Proper, is the largest state and namesake of the Allied Lands. Its lands offer major climate differences depending on one's location within the state.
Major Settlements & Regions
Ghikva City
The Allied Capital and Kingdom's Capital is the Royal Palace and City of Ghikva (Ghikva City) and the largest metropolitian area in the Allied Lands. Ghikvan youth venture or dream of venturing to the city for its famed nightlife, while adventurers far and wide come for the great economic possibilities and oppurtunity the city provides.
Freel Mountains
The Frell Mountain Range on the western border is one of the largest uncharted areas of the land, and adventurers have journeyed there annually, though fewer seem to come back lately. Rumors of grand ruins and other beings flourish amongst gossipers.
Avendoln Peninsula
The eastern Avendoln Peninsula provides some of the nice, warm, beach like lands only dreamed about in Blüdfrost. Port Denason is the major eastern city, and leads the peninsula in market shipments.
National Politics
Ghikva City houses the Allied Parliament, where leaders from all member states meet to pass laws and legislation to better govern the country. As such, the city is home to many part-time resident politicians and is a wordsmith's dream battleground.
A peaceful rebellion of sorts exist along the Avendoln Peninsula. Feeling as though they bring in as much economic prosperity as Ghikva City while only receiving the benefits of a small village, Port Denason has a political secession movement in progress to make it a full blown Allied Land and the 12th State of Ghikva.
Culture of Ghikva
National Celebrities
The King of The Kingdom of Ghikva, as well as the King of the Allied Lands of Ghikva, is the Great Uron Delpear the Third, called by his people Uron the Black. He is the third of his dynasty, and like his fathers, a black dragon. His son Drubai leads a secretive society in the Frell Mountain Range and is bent on overthrowing his father. Drubai, along with friend and heir to the throne of Malsvir Prince Thraun, have a warlike ideology and a new vision for the future of Valgora. However, the common Ghikvan only knows that Drubai is not seen much these days.
National Sport
The Ghikvan Giants are the state's most widely known team, and represent them in the Ghikvan National Football League. The league is headquartered at the team's stadium, Straffield, and is actively seeking new owners to bring in new leagues and money into the doomed organization.
