Narakzund

Narakzund is the dwarf country of Egion and is referred to many as the 'kingdom beneath the mountains' the mountains being that of the Baragzan Moutains which acts as one of the biggest dwarf mines within the realm, the kingdom also acts as a realm wide trade centre trading mainly between Dorwine, Empire of Egion and the Orcs of the Haunted Mountains, overseeing the kingdom is the King of the Dwarves who provides the trade and connections of the dwarves to the other kingdoms.

Description
Narakzund mainly consists of plains with mountains surrounding it making it a very tactical position for the dwarves especially with Addmor Keep being the capital and main stronghold for the dwarves including being the home to the King of the Dwarves, alongside this the dwarves would build multiple outposts hidden within the mountains around their kingdom allowing them to spot people attacking them before they even got the chance to. The Ash Mountains to the south of the kingdom acts as one of the greatest smelting mountains where dwarves forge armour for themselves or others for the right price.

History
Originally the dwarves themselves originated from the Baragzan Mountains where they were similar to the Orcs living underground or within the mountains forming kingdoms inside where they built up their armies and civilisation, It wouldn't be until 522 AE of the first era where Forfek Dragonbeard one of the first kings would decide to push the Orcs out of Narakzund claiming the land for the dwarves giving them proper room to expand their civilisation which began the small war between the dwarves and Orcs. It would be around 542 AE where the dwarves would win the war and Forfek would commence the construction of Addmor Keep forming the first stronghold and settlement within Narakzund, after this the dwarves constructed two more major towns in Kharbilgum and Alin allowing Narakzund to be recognised by the Empire as a separate kingdom with their own lands.

Moving towards the end of the first era the current dwarf king Thanum would commence the forging of thousands of armour pieces paid by the Empire so that they could be prepared to face Nionande as they were currently at war with them, from here the dwarves would be slated to have been the main reason as to why the Empire won due to the armour they wore.
