History
Founded on the 8th of the First Seed, 1707. King Fimlin Grandaxe along with his council announced the declaration of the Under-realm of Urguan, in hopes of turning a new chapter of uniting the once fractured dwarven people. The Under-Realm had a banishment on all of the political enemies of the kingdom. Under-King Fimlin Grandaxe wanted to have full unity once more between all dwarves, therefore in the year 1714, all former political enemies of the Under-Realm were pardoned. In the year 1717, Under-king Fimlin Grandaxe resigned from his position as king after nearly 14 years on the throne of Agnarum. Following the resignation, an election was held with two major candidates, Gimli 'Metalfist' Grandaxe and Atandt Irongrinder.
