Description

This kingdom is the largest of all the Human Kingdoms. Heraldry within this kingdom being first and foremost. Knightly codes and virtues being very strict and perhaps the most respected throughout the Human Kingdoms. The knights of the Hannel are highly trained warriors and are second to none at mounted combat. Some of the more famous knights in Vastonian history derived from within this beautiful kingdom and it's almost a sure thing that many are to follow in their footsteps.

This kingdom is ruled by king Lorn Hannel the 1st and his beautiful wife Eriana. Together they provide piece and harmony throughout the land and the people show their appreciation by celebrating a special holiday dedicated to the royal family of Hannel. Although, just like any other kingdom Hannel still has it's problems. The recent wars have drastically reduced king Hannel's army and every attempt to replenish his masses have gone in vain. King Hannel is currently ruler over several other human kingdom sects just as his beautiful ally Queen Vistaghia Kylston. This also makes him and emperor and thus he reigns control over the kingdom's of Hashier (old Slade) and Delstar a newly formed kingdom to the north of Hashier.

Just as Adania, Hannel is filled with villages, towns and other much larger communities. These communities include Carn, Totstig, Taz, Tagh, Genevica,Titzlin, Pyo and the capital city of Nacevia. All of which are within the kingdom of Hannel's main borders. Other cities outside of Hannel that Lorn rules over are Darkstone, Targa, Darcon and Kha all of which are inside Hashier's boundaries with the exception of Targa which rests just across the shores of the Bottomless River.

The kingdom of Hannel has many enchanting forests and bodies of water including the largest fresh water lake within the Human Kingdom. This massive body of water is known as Ciez lake which covers a total land mass of nearly 400 miles in length and 20 miles in width at it's narrowest port to port location. The mighty River Savage runs in one end and out the other, flowing through nearly every Human Kingdom and most parts of Elflore.

The people of Hannel cultivate massive farmlands of wheat, barley, rice, corn, alph-alpha and other common foods of the kingdoms. They also export 62% of the entire Human Kingdoms wood products, including tables & chairs, firewood, trunks, barrels and wagons. Much of the Human Kingdoms wildlife can also be found within Hannel, giving hunters plenty of opportunity to feed their families. All in all life in Hannel is pretty good and the kingdom should soon once again be one of the more prosperous kingdoms within the human realm.

Geography

Hannel sits centralized within the human kingdoms, having Wellington to the west and Adania to it's east. Ciez Lake runs the length of Hannel's southern tip, while two of the largest rivers in Vastonia encompassing it's borders making this kingdom one of the most desirable kingdoms within the realm.

Justice System

A feudal ordinance that works very well. Punishments are strict and unswerving, but they are fair. Every man or woman remains innocent until proven guilty. Thereafter typical feudal punishments are enacted. All cases are handled in order of severity, being found innocent or guilty by the appointed judge.

Military/Forces

Low - Since the recent wars against Demedus, Hannel has suffered a substantial loss in men at arms. Only a few hundred soldiers remain on hand and a handful of knights to protect this once powerful kingdom. King Hannel shows great confidence in his allies and will not hesitate to do whatever it takes to hold his kingdom together.
