TRANAL
Map is still a rough draft and subject to change as the staff continue to make updates and improvements.
Located in the northern most section of the Imperium which borders Zythura, the Tranal Dutchy is one of the most well established, and heavily influenced, dutchy within the Imperium. After the the attempted secession after the death of Empress Aletta II in the 38th Year of Steel Tranal has been kept on a short leash which ties them closely to Gelerand and to the Imperial Government as a whole.
The ties between Gelerand and Tranal have only grown tighter over the 60 years since the events involving Princess Amelia, and now Tranal acts more as an extension of Gelerand and the Imperial Family. The land is colder than some of the other regions of the Imperium, and even before the secession Tranal was known for its brilliant scientific minds who constantly strove to fuse the concepts of magic with science in new ways. The first Imperial airships were created in Tranal, and now the dutchy and the current ruling Ducal House receive increased funding to continue their research.
A significant portion of the Imperial Airforce resides within Tranal, and as G.I.M. Co rose to prominence it also built two of its largest vehicle factories there as well. Most of the technology enjoyed by the Imperium begins in Tranal, and is exported to Gelerand or to the other providences within the Imperium. The people of Tranal are known well known not just for their scientific acumen, but also their talent as pilots and aerial combat.

About the Imperium
All of the Dutchy within the Imperium share certain things in common. These include a general stance on magic, structure of their nobility, and of course the presence of the Imperial Legion and the Inquisition in varying degrees depending on the area. The entirety of the Imperium falls under the rules of the Imperial Mandates, and are bound by the will of the Emperor. Information on the Imperium as a whole is found in the wiki article: The Imperium
Information about individual Duchy will remain in the specific Duchy codex.
Gelerand “The Fatherland” - Seat of Imperial Government. Capital city is Gel’Grandal, which is most commonly just referred to as the Imperial City. Gothic Germanic themes. The heart of both the Imperial Legion and the Inquisition is located within the Imperial City, as well as the central hub for the sprawling Lorestone Communication Relay and the Imperial Academy of Arcane Science.
Tranal - The Duchy of Tranal. The oldest and most well established of the Imperial Provinces. It was the first neighboring kingdom that fell to the power of Gel’Grandal. The capital city is Allnacht. Gothic Germanic themes. They are most famous for the prowess as airmen, with a large portion of the Imperial Air Force concentrated in this province.
Dardouen - The Duchy of Dardouen. The wealthy province of Dardouen is renowned for its extravagance and intrigue. Capital city is Valensier. French themes. They are a central province with a considerable amount of arable, fertile soil. Dardouen is considered the "breadbasket" of the empire with a great deal of its goods being exported to other provinces and even other kingdoms.
Arlais - The Duchy of Arlais. The most recent annexation of the Imperium having only been in the empire for approximately 60 years. It is a rival of wealth and extravagance much like Dardouen and still holds some nationalistic pockets. Capital city is Rheimance. Because Arlais is one of the most recent annexations and due to bordering both the Kingdom of Atinaw and Sangen Federation, there is a heavy concentration of the Imperial Army in this province.
