History Edit
Leaders
After the secession of the Süddeutschen Bund (Southern German Federation) in 2038, the government initiated pogroms against orks and Population 210,000
trolls and the setting up of internment camps. The metahumans being repressed by the government defended themselves with magic. Trolls: 48%
Similarly as in America, the government could not, even with the use of external armed forces such as MET2000, defeat the deadly mix of Orks: 34%
magic and guerilla-tactics. Norms: 11%
Other: 7%
The Trollwars Edit
Land area ~7,500 km²
The resistance was led by a troll with the alias of "Berthold". He led a small insurgency force to the "Rottweiler Befreiung" on 28 October

2038, where they liberated the largest internment camp in Swabia. During the fighting the insurgents killed a large number of guards and
(per capita)
afterward executed the remaining internment camp personnel. The insurgency after the liberation continued operating with guerilla tactics in
the wooded mountain range in Baden-Württemberg known as the Black Forest region. Unattributed sources started to circulate that the Currency 2 Deutsche Mark (DM)

In February 2042 the regional government fearing defeat, initiated a large-scale offensive termed "Schwabenstreich" in the region held by the insurgents. Large scale fighting resulted in
the defeat and turning back of government backed troops. Berthold, with mages controlling nature under his command, initiated a wide-scale counterattack in April 2042. The mages
through a series of earthquakes the Rheingraben region shook with seismic activity and caused volcanic eruptions of Eifel and Kaiserstuhl. Large sections of Karlsruhe were destroyed
and the Neuwieder Becken flooded. As a consequence, Würtemberg let Baden in to wage the war alone. Berthold used this opportunity to declare on the 19 February 2043 the
independence of the Trollkönigreich Schwarzwald. On February 2043, Kampfgruppe Pfeiffer appeared to support the independence of the Troll Kingdom against the Swabians.

The fighting ended with the announcement of the fall of the Hunggarten government in May 2044. On 8 May 2045 the Trollkönigreich became an official part of the ADL.

This period of time, called the "Trollwars", are the reason for the strained and hostile relationship between Swabians, Bavarians and trolls.

Politics Edit

The ADL country is a monarchy with the university town Freiburg as the capital with its governance comprised of a feudalistic system. The first citizen status of orks and trolls in contrast to
other demographics is explicitly written in the constitution and has caused a point of contention between other ADL countries and France. Nonetheless, norms, elves and dwarves
Extraterritorial corporate facilities are limited to those facilities that existed before the founding of the Kingdom. The primary income of the Kingdom comes mainly from road taxation of
major road traffic conduits of the Rheintal between the ADL and Switzerland. A second major revenue source is agriculture. The country suffers from increasing inflation and lack of state
funds. The increasing anxiety of a destitute populace has lead to a small but growing movement for democracy, which finds many supporters in the traditionally liberal Freiburg. Moreover,
even some trolls follow the idea of a "Groß-Baden" where the kingdom includes the Alliance Country Badisch-Pfalz, Karlsruhe and a part of the Elsass. This is of course without the
anti-metahuman and racist goals of the Groß-Badische Kreuzzugsbewegung.

Awakened Land Edit

From the beginning of the 21st century a lack of urbanization due to the collapsing paper industry, caused a strong reforestation in the Black Forest region. Even today around 80% of the
previous small population centers in the Middle- and High Black Forest region are uninhabited. After the Awakening, and the increasing rapid reforestation, caused many different
paracritters, awakened plants, free spirits and astral phenomena to appear and inhabit the region. For these reasons, the Kingdom counts as an Awakened Land.

Even in the Middle Ages the Black Forest was rife with legends, fairy-tales and myths. But what were once just horror stories for children have now awakened and stalk through the Black
Forest. Mages report a background count from 1 to 4; also an unknown number of awakened animals and plants have been noted. There are 10% more free nature spirits, ghosts and
