Kardovia, the united Konungrs of Kardovia, four great nations unified in the wake of their liberty through the fires of battle against the Azaki Olnir Empire. In the northern realms of Thundun, after the death of the Matriarch of the Olnir empire at the hands of their own Olnir Konungr centuries ago the Kardovians rose up to crush the Azaki as the Olnir’s Matriarch was dead and their Konungr had taken his war fleets in exile to the sea of Ichio to raid and plunder the divided Shoyo Empire, as the northern savages had oppressed the proud Karadun and their Runic Faith. The Kardovians massacred the Azaki Olnir, those that were not slain fled North to Azak Dun and east, some even crossing the ice shard sea to settle in Avagarian lands. Carving out their own kingdom, slaying the weaker Animistic tribes. Kardovian's are a proud warrior people, taller than the average Astrian, they are known for their seafaring skills and martial prowess. The Kardovians have continued to plunder the Astrian shipping lanes and coast lines. Emperor Chrondrius betrothed his daughter Nehzra Vahla to a Kardovian prince to forge a marriage alliance in order to be able to turn the imperial forces away from the shorelines of northern Astria and towards the Osso’s river against the Nephir threat.
