The | The Dragonsong Dominion, which originally covered the whole island of [[Corsain]], was formed by Christopher Brant from the several smaller [[states]] that were present on the island at that time; just a few years before the return of [[Sinthar Bloodstone]]. Before this, Corsain consisted of several smaller [[realms]] with similar outlooks and culture. In 1338, Christopher, an honorable swordsman and brilliant politician, convinced the last of the rulers to adopt his code and join his realm. | ||
At that time, the [[Rohden Alliance]], a defensive naval alliance consisting of all the various realms on Corsain and [[Tilmar]] had already been formed.

Since 1408, Alexander's rule has led Dragonsong on a road of recovery. A diminished population, despite the sadness it implies, is easier to provide for than a larger one. Among his first actions, he redistributed the diminished land among the loyal nobility and new vows of fealty were sworn. An unexpected boost to the renovated sense of national pride is that now the population has an enemy to despise and no effort is being spared for the rebuilding of Dragonsong. | Since 1408, Alexander's rule has led Dragonsong on a road of recovery.

The [[Dragonsong Code]] is best reflected by the realm's army, stationed near [[Fort Dragonsong]]. During the division, their loyalty was evident as all the soldiers migrated toward the old country, bringing their families with them, leaving a deficiency in the new land, quickly filled by lighter troops. | The [[Dragonsong Code]] is best reflected by the realm's army, stationed near [[Fort Dragonsong]].
