History
Tilea was the name of a country that existed in the World-that-was.
In 1699 IC, the merchants Ricco and Robbio convinced the various princes of Tilea to finance an expedition to the east to find Lustria and hopefully even Ulthuan and the source of silk. A huge mercenary military force accompanied them and it attracted a large contingent of slayers who considered the whole thing doomed but for years nothing was heard of them. Then in 1714 IC, a caravan with pack mules laded with silk arrived in Verezzo accompanied by a message from the brothers who were residing in the previously unknown empire of Cathay. They had set up a trading enclave in the western most city of Shang-Yang and subsequently opened up a trade route which became known as the Silk Road.
After the Lichemaster creates the fortress of Krinal in the Vaults in 2460 IC he begins sending armies against northern Tilea. Several Tilean Dukes pledge allegiance to him to stop his raids and once more Kemmler turns his attention to Bretonnia, attacking Carcassonne in 2470 IC.
Overview
Tilea roughly surrounds the Tilean Sea with the Apuccini Mountains forming the eastern border, the Abasko Mountains the western, and the Irrana Mountains forming the northern border. The Apuccinis protect Tilea from the lawless region of the Border Princes, but the forests of the foothills are dangerous enough, harbouring predatory beasts with Goblins and bandits also being a pervasive threat.
Locations in Tilea included:
- Apuccini Mountains : a mountain range that separated Tilea from the Border Princes.
- Monte Castello : a fortified City State on the edge of the Border Princes.
- Organza : a City State in Tilea.
- Lambrusco : a Former City State in Tilea, now rumoured to be ruled by a dead court that was made up of a force of Undead.
- Spaarta : a Military City State in Tilea.
The coastal states are important maritime powers which struggle with the Arabians and Estalians for dominance of the sea trade. Although Tilea was distinguished by the rivalry between its city states, the recognition of a common heritage ensures that they usually cooperate against common enemies. The inland states are mostly concerned with agriculture and sometimes subservient in some way to the coastal states.
Tilea had no regular military, and all city states employed companies of mercenaries instead. The companies ranged from groups of hardened, professional soldiers who would honourably fulfill the terms of their contract to the letter, to unscrupulous rabble all too prone to rebellion, plundering, and treachery.
