Queensbarrow

Found within the City-States of Quashtiree, the City-State of Queensbarrow gets its name from its founder, a queen who obtained the land by betting that she could carry a wheelbarrow full of fish across the entire countryside in less than 27 minutes. Today, Queensbarrow is ruled by a number of “houses,” each of which contains a number of spellcasting nobles. These nobles dislike being called wizards, and prefer instead to be referred to by the more traditional term “magic-users.” Magic in Queensbarrow is mostly limited to the upper-classes, composed of nobles who spend more time competing among themselves than they do attacking other City-States. Still, Queensbarrow engages in its share of conquests. It also employs the rather insidious tactic of advancing the nation’s borders by a few feet every so often in the hope that its enemies won’t notice, or at least will assume that the small amount of land affected by the change isn’t worth fighting over.
