Kellibrir

Nestled in the northern mountains is Kellibrir the mining country. The resource-heavy mountains that line its northern border are a rich source of gold, silver, and many other metals including compounds like Dust and salt. Perhaps more interestingly, Kellibrir is the only democracy in Terria. The Alexandria dynasty existed on the throne for nearly a thousand years and governed the lands of Kellibrir. When suddenly the last member died out. With the death of the royal line and no suitable heirs the wealthy took control and formed the senate creating the first and only democracy. They even have Faunus senators. Although this make them the most progressive of the nations, only landowners are allowed to vote, making them more of an oligopoly. Politically, however, they are a very passive country and almost never interfere in the affairs of the southern folk. If another nation tries to attack them, they have one of the largest rail networks along with many fortified hidden positions. This allow them to hide in the mountains until the invading armies starve in the barren hills.
