Mormar

Summary
Known as the dark edge of the Falmar Desert, the nation is filled with traders and nomads. However, most people know the nation for the city of Kulnaur, which contains within it the largest black market in the world, known as the Dark Exchange. Officially the government outlaws slavery, having been a former part of the once great Falmar empire of old. However, with the Dark Exchange's presence in the nation, nothing can be certain.

Inhabitants
Many nomads wander the desert and nearby areas of the nation. Most of the population that inhabits the small villages or the city of Kulnaur are merchants or the families of those merchants. Although famous for the Dark Exchange, many legitimate businessmen trade here as the public market has to be on the up and up.

Government
Made up of elected officials (most of them notably the richest merchants) the back dealing and off the book policies tell a different story than the public face of their government. Many of the politicians are involved in the Dark Exchange or at least support it with their votes, for fear of being replaced.
