Meihts

With its lush valleys and tall skies, Meihts was one of the first casualties of Prentosias’ expansion to the north. The territory’s climate and its position over the rivers make it a breadbasket region, with tall fields of grain that go into rich food and fine drinks.

Originally Meihts was several different nations, but during the occupation, local leaders allied themselves with Florian Lichter, a halfling who organized these leaders into a covert resistance. Officially these resistances paid the prentosian occupiers lip service, all while undermining them behind the scenes.

After Prentosias was defeated and driven back, the leaders, seeking enough strength in unity to prevent another invasion, formed a loose parliament and appointed Lichter to be the first king of the new nation of Meihts.

The people of Meihts are proudly nationalistic and carry a deep-seated resentment of their southern neighbors, the Prentosians. They are known for their fastidiousness and attention to detail. With these qualities encouraged the nation has become famous for its smiths that produce fine, intricate, clockwork pieces. Meihts has also been celebrated for its fine gunsmiths.

From their days opposing Prentosias, the well-known secret of Meihts is their intricate spy network, it’s a nervously told joke that there is little Florian Lichter isn’t privy to.
