Dragon Kingdom

The Dragon Kingdom, previously known as the Astran Dragon Kingdom (アストラン) was the original homeland of the Dragonmen Tribe.

Layout
The Dragon Kingdom was located deep within the Northern Mountain Range. The rough terrain and the array of dangerous monsters in the region made it impossible to journey there by means other than flight.

The Dragon Kingdom’s capital was situated in a large caldera, and while the surrounding region was nothing but bare rock, the caldera was teeming with vegetation. Numerous streams ran through the city, and all of the buildings were made of wood. Even the largest of them was no more than three stories tall, including the palace.

History
The Dragon Kingdom had a long and rich history. Over the ages, they were often persecuted by other races, until they eventually closed their borders to the rest of the world.

During the age of the Liberators, the Astran Kingdom maintained a policy of isolationism to the point where some people considered dragonmen to be a myth.

When the Liberators were being chased by an army of Ehit apostles after they defeated the Holy Church, they were rescued by members of the Dragon Kingdom, who witnessed the battle thanks to a special broadcasting artifact that the Liberators used during the battle. They managed to repel the apostles, and gave refuge to the Liberators. Over the next several months, the kingdom aided the Liberators in researching a way to defeat Ehit, until they were forced to find their answer in the vampire nation of Dastia.

Soon after, the Astran Dragon Kingdom, along with the rest of Tortus, fell victim to god's hypnosis magic that compelled the masses to hunt down and kill the Liberators, and eventually each other. The Dragon Kingdom was subjected to a coup d'etat that was orchestrated by Princess Shival, which resulted in the death of the king with many of his allies, and her becoming the new ruler. Several days later, the Dragon Kingdom became a vassal state of the Elbard Theocracy, and continued their hunt for any remaining Liberators.

Eventually, the Dragon Kingdom returned to being it's own independent nation.

Over the next few centuries, the Dragon Kingdom once again began opening its borders for other races, with the hopes of creating a utopian society for different people to find peace and acceptance among one another.

This act initially achieved the desired outcome and improved the dragonmen’s reputation as the world’s protectors, but that would eventually change when God's followers were coerced into believing the dragonmen were heretics, and attacked them. This resulted in a massive war that spanned over the course of several years, which utterly destroyed the Astran Kingdom and nearly wiped out the dragonmen race, including their ruler Kharga Klarus. However, serval hundred survivors managed to escape the purge and fled to a remote island and build a hidden village to live in.

500 years later, when the Heroes of Earth were summoned to Tortus, there was no trace of the Astran Kingdom left from where it once stood.
