Dryst

Torn between old and new

This article is a stub. Please comment if you would like it to become a priority for expansion.
  Dryst is a large country in western Sarsand, separated from Moragul by the Gulguns. Whilst most of the country is temperate, its north is characterised by tropical forests. The country has miles and miles of diverse coastline, from sandy beaches to rocky cliff faces, and has a thriving culture of fishing, seafaring, and being one with the land that goes back millennia.   The country is currently in a period of turbulant change and innovation, in what has been termed an industrial revolution. Steam power was discovered in Dryst about fifty years ago, though there is still much controversy about the identity of its inventor. The one thing everyone can agree on is that the Drystians beat the Estic to it.

A society/civilization at a massive turning point in its development is so fascinating; what were they like before? How will that be affected by this new technology? I look forward to finding out! :)
