Yuricas

The Yuricas are an ethnic group that were one of the original civilizations in the region which is now Tirrenor and Bruxia.

Yurican civilization stretches back far into history with a rich cultural variety, but in the last few hundred years they were known for the united Kingdom of Yuricaz. The kingdom faced constant outside pressures from the stronger nations of Bruxia and Tirrenor, and over time fell into constant war and conflict. The Empire of Bruxia were responsible for conquering most of the kingdom between 350 and 450 ACR, as the aristocratic empire invaded the southern kingdom. The northern kingdom was assailed by Tirrenor first in 489 in the First Yuricaz War, and again in 509 in the Second Yuricaz War, which culminated in the conquest and destruction of the once great Yurican civilization at the hands of Kain the Conqueror, the Thane of Blackwall at the time.

Today, the Yuricans are second-class citizens, a oppressed group discriminated against for their appearance, culture, and loyalty to the Doctrine of Gaiax. Many Yurican families remain in the region now known as Nubardum, where they are ruled by Tirrenian nobles.

A criminal organization calling themselves the Birchmen are sometimes seen as a modern day Yurican resistance, as they fight back against the Tirrenian power structure in Nubardum, and are beginning to carve out territory in the Vassili region of Bruxia since the start of the chaotic civil war in the Empire.
