Clyngunn

Description
Clyngunn is a sovereign kingdom of dwarves in the eastern mountains of the Golden Continent. It's economy is largely sustained through mining. It has recently developed some ties with the Golden Kingdom and Aelyria, but it remains largely isolated. It is currently ruled by King Thorgurn I and King Brumnar I.

Origins
Clyngunn was originally founded in 60,000 B.A. by dwarves from Avaria seeking freedom from persecution. In 40,000 B.A., the original Kingdom of Clyngunn was conquered by Aelyria. The land was then conquered by the Golden Kingdom in 1,028 B.A..

Restoration
In 12 B.A., the dwarves of Clyngunn launched a coup d'etat, overthrowing the governor from the Golden Kingdom and his garrison. They proceeded to quickly seal the borders of their kingdom and guard the mountain passes zeaously. Given that the Golden Kingdom was busy battling both Aelyria and the Empire, as well as the difficulty of launching an invasion into the mountains, the Golden Kingdom recognized Clyngunn's independence in 4 B.A.. Thorgurn and Brumnar were crowned as the new monarchs of Clyngunn.
