Cerdolia

Cerdolia is a country neighboured by Orsand and Bel on the western side of the Las Hocorexadier (Uncrossable Ocean in Hies Loricoda). Spanning flatland and mountains, it has become something of a cultural powerhouse through its investment in its intellectual and artistic community, the birthplace of several schools of aesthetic philosophy and rivalling Bel in its influence, despite the comparatively small size of its population and its history as a province of Beghul. The capital of Cerdolia is Crisseviel.

The country has entire schools of culinary learning, and it is from these that the invention of chocolate came, quickly spreading across the world over the next decade.

Cerdolia is also a leader in the realm of the physical, astronomical, and biological sciences, with several innovations in optics, astronomy, geology, botany and medicine coming forth from the nation. Competing research partnerships with Bel and Orsand both have led to rapid development and fierce competition in the biological field.

The patron deity of Cerdolia is Ecetri, the Deity of Glass. Their sacred energy allows its people to modify the parameters of glass manipulation to create outstandingly intricate forms. Cerdolia is well known for its glasswork, greenhouses, and numerous architectural marvels involving the extensive use of windows.
