Bormar is a [[Dwarves|Dwarven]] nation of skilled craftsmen, rich nobles, hard workers, endless trade, thriving industry, and immeasurable wealth.

While Lords and Ladies are chosen from the wealthiest Dwarf in their community, the First Lords and Ladies of the First House are the wealthiest Dwarves in the entire nation.
