The Aydahar Confederation

The Aydahar Confederation is a country populated by the draconic-blooded Aydahar and every manner of dragon on Otan. The country is made up of ten regions, five of which roughly represent a chromatic dragon (red, blue, etc.) and five which represent metallic dragons (gold, silver, etc.). About 80% of the Aydahar people bear the strong features and colors of their dragon progenitors. The rest of the country is made up of mixed colors, and features of varied and interesting combinations.

When Aydahar and Humans mate the result is a Half-Aydahar which naturally has even more human features than a regular Aydahar as their bloodlines dilute, the last feature they lose are their taloned feet. Half-Aydahar are tolerated in Aydahar society, though they are rarely treated as first class citizens.

In previous Aydahar Confederation history, the Ungir were spawned and the two races found it impossible to co-habit in the same country. The Ungir eventually moved north to form a country on their own rocky territory, the Ungirsi Federation. They have since grown and even thrived as a self governing people.

Population

A Political Map the Aydahar Confederation

The Aydahar Confederation is made up of 5,200,000 souls nearly each of which can claim draconic ancestry. The population is divided among ten regions, each of which produces Aydahar of a particular racial variant. These specializations, have been slowly degrading over the years, however as Aydahar variants interbreed with one another and even non-Aydahar which can result in the Half-Aydahar variant.

As Aydahar variants become more mixed, various horn features begin to disappear and their flesh tones tend to resemble something more human... from the deepest brown to whitish pink, depending on the racial mix. Gone, however, are the metallic hues and primary colors of their ancestors. Particularly in the capital city of Kazinasi, mixed-variant Aydahar and Half-Aydahar are far more common than in the rest of the country.

Geography

The Aydahar Confederation is a large country covering some 106 thousand square miles. The entire country is landlocked, bordering the Garis Triumvirate to the south, Ortalyk to the north, Sigis to the east and Ontustik to the west. Dragons seeking sea adventure will often fly over the Garis Triumvirate at a high altitude before diving into the ocean for deep sea treasure hunts. Few Aydahar have ever been to sea, nor have they crossed the border into the Garis Triumvirate.

Aydahari Regions

This territory is divided into ten regions each roughly represented by a racial variant of Aydahar. The gold Aydahar variant known as the Altin Aydahar control the Altin Aydahar Region and by proxy the capitol of the Confederation.

Altin Aydahar Region Statistics

Land mass (sq. mi.)	5,392
Rural population	241,322
Urban population	7,263
Total population	248,585

Altin Aydahar Region is a region of 248,585 souls, populated mostly by the gold variant or Altin Aydahar variant of Aydahar in the Aydahar Confederation. Altin Aydahar Region is administered from the provincial capital Kazinasi by the Eldest of the Altin Aydahar Region, Rakhat Nurzat. Rakhat Nurzat's position was granted by the Eldest of Aydahar.

Rakhat Nurzat also serves on the Elder Council of Aydahar and represents the interest of both dragons and regional Aydahar. Because of the physical mixing of Aydahar variants, the Altin Aydahar Region is the most likely to have mixed variants of Aydahar and [Half-Aydahar]]. These mixed-race and mixed variant individuals are so common in the capitol region that is is ofthen rumored they were bred for diplomatic and government service.

Political Environment

The Aydahar Confederation is ruled by the Elder Council of Aydahar, which is made up of the ten regional elders. The council deliberates and rules on all matters of state. When the council is tied, the tie is broken by the Eldest of Aydahar, a title currently held by the venerable Kurban Adiljan.

Politics in the Aydahar Confederation are notably conservative. Sweeping changes to the country are rare and not since the Aydahar regions are also home to dragons, some of whom have inhabited the region for centuries. Dragons do not expressly participate in Aydahari politics, however it would be unusual for a Council Elder to embark on a major initiative without consulting with the eldest of dragons in the region.
