Kingdom of Veldrun

The Kingdom of Veldrun is a sovereign nation in Zemuriah located in the central regions of the continent. It neighbors the human Theocratic Kingdom of Septia to the west, the joint Elven-Human Commonwealth of Mondstadt to the north, and Magocratic Kingdom of Orandas to the east.

Veldrun is the largest kingdom by landmass in Zemuriah, surpassing Onth'Thalas following the Orcish-Alliance War, which saw Orcish territory shrink in size, allowing the humans to reclaim the Swamp of Sorrows and the Kingdom of Heidelmar.

Founded by High King Johannes Lighthammer, Veldun lived in peace and in harmony. Other human tribes that originated from Veldrun expanded to discover new parts during the Expedition Era, which saw the establishment of the Theocratic Kingdom of Septia among other human nations. Human and Elven interactions came about during the early Arcane Era, which saw both sides initially hostile to each other. The Human-Elven War came to an end with the signing of the Treaty of Lendheim. From there, Human and Elven interactions grew to slowly become positive. Of all the human kingdoms, Veldrun was the first human kingdom to open relations with Onth'Thalas. Highly regarded as Onth'Thalas' greatest Human-allied Kingdom, the two nations have ever since established numerous organisations, events, and expeditions. The most famous being the Eldnor-Arctic Expedition, which saw the founding of the joint Elven-Human ruled nation of theCommonwealth of Mondstadt.

Presently, Veldrun maintains the 2nd-largest armed forces in Zemuriah. It is a member of The Zemuriah Union and the Magisters Union. Veldrun is famous for its Eldnor Ice Wine.
