Upper Thalia is often viewed with great fear and mistrust by its neighbors.  Combining fertile farmlands with mineral (and element) rich mountains providing strong natural barriers, Upper Thalia has been a military powerhouse for thousands of years.   From the Dimmersdel fortress/city on the [[farne:locations:Alestia|Alestian]] frontier to the Orthus military district capital on the [[farne:locations:Sturmgaard|Sturmgaardian]] frontier, the entire society is militarized, with predictable results.
