Once magic was many kingdoms were discovered and many wars were fought over the land. It eventually lead to one major country called Alveran so the human have an united front againts the Elves. But two major regions on the west side of blood river is Tirviria region and the east is the Valley region. Eventually the Tirvirian split off from Alveran and there were two human countries. Humans are known for their military but are also very proffecient at magic and can rival elves at time. Had only a few conflict with the dwarves and one major war with the Elves that eventually created Alveran. The humans are mainly responsible for the extinction of the giants and they also have a rocky relationship with the centaurs and mer-men. Both Alveran and Tirviria were monarchs but are both currently republics. The magic council is in Alveran

Elves
The elves are not natives but are actually banished people from the Hanel continent. The elves landed in the North and begin to colonize it with the leadership Heaelon the first King of Heaelonon. They ran into conflict with the orcs who occupied the land and many battles are fought with them. Elves usually dominated with their expertise on magic. The elves were also in a millinium conflict with the Dwarves ever since the Elves took over Castle Djhurin. There has been 8 wars with the Dwarves. After the Great Dance the Elves and Dwarves countries are now allies and have a firm alliance for two centuries. Their country is a monarch and still have that tradition today.

Dwarves
The dwarves are underground people who live in the Dwarven cities underground. The Dwarven cities stretch the entire continent and there are many entrances throughout the land. There use to be a huge settlement at the biggest castle on the continent Castle Djhurin. It was sieged by the Elves and tooken over by the Elves in the third Elf-Dwarf war which lead to a rivalrly between the two countries that will not be settle for a couple millinium. Dwarves are master blacksmith and builders and are the ones who discover gun powder. They trade with many countries especially the human countries. There are two Dwarven countries.

But the Elves magic won over and they urbanized it but allowed the Orks land. This has causes many skirmishe. The Orks have a lower and lower numbers throughout history. During the Great Dance the Orks sided with the rebels hoping for more freedoms but the war was lost at the battle on the Burnt Fields. After that the Dwarf commander Maverik massacre the sick and elderly Orks leaving only the warriors allowed. After that the Elves and Orks agree to give the Orks a land of their own and funded for some to migrate to Alveran and the Independent Islands. The Orks are currently not united with a few chiefs depending on location. They are endangered.
