L'Estalie

Ever heard about the infamous Estalian Inquisition ?

Unlike Bretonnia, Estalia has never been a unified realm, and a large number of Kingdoms, Principalities, and petty realms spread out over this dry and mountainous land. Estalian politics is generally considered to be incomprehensible to anyone who cannot trace at least three generations native within the country. The various states are knit together in a tangled web of dynastic intermarriage and obscure treaties that essentially act to maintain the status quo. A degree of friction between the various states is common, but open warfare is unusual.
Religion unites the various realms, who all worship the Southern pantheon, with the Inquisition being essentially the most powerful organisation in Estalia. Bretonnians generally have a degree of respect for their southern neighbours (who they see as immeasurably more cultured than the vagabonds of the Empire), but this is tempered by their tendency to look down on all foreigners. The Estalians are widely admired for their learning, their passion, and their respect for family and tradition. However, they are often mocked for their siestas (Bretonnians consider all Estalians to be layabouts), their tendency to over-dramatize everything, and their tendency to take religion a bit too seriously.
