Koguryo is a large nation in the geographic center of the Kingdom of the Winds. The nation was founded by King Tongmyong Wang, who was succeeded by his son Yuri(myong). The Capitol of Koguryo is the City of Kugnae, a large, sprawling city. However, as compared to the large commercial nation of Buya, the population of Kugnae and of Koguryo as a whole is relatively low.
Politics
KING: King Yuri(myong) Wang
HEAD OF STATE: Prince-Regent Mu-hyul (Mhul) Wang
PRIME MINISTER: Minister Starrbrite
HEAD OF MILITARY: General Nykid
Since the early 20s, King Yuri has delegated most of his authority to his second son, Prince Mu-hyul. The Prince deals with all day to day policy, while the King appears for ceremonial duties. Much of the actual management of Koguryo's affairs is actually in the hands of its Royal Ministry, led by Prime Minister Starrbrite. The Royal Ministry sees to keeping the citizens of Koguryo, and all of the Kingdom of the Winds, well satisfied.
Five subpaths reside within Koguryian borders. The Chongun, Diviner, Merchant, Monk, and Spy subpaths maintain significant autonomy, while still pledging fealty and giving some small tribute to the sovereignty. Clans are also given some autonomy, but are at the beck and call of the Royalty when the time comes.
Koguryo is a member of the Tri-Kingdom Alliance, along with the Principality of Nagnang and Empire of Buya. It also maintains a tenuous peace with the Ogre Kingdom within its lands, though many Ogres and humans battle in the caves of Hamgyong Nam-Do, and humans are rarely if ever allowed into the hidden ogre city of Ja-gook.
Geography
CAPITOL: Kugnae
OTHER CITIES: Hausson, Kangnung, Masan, Onyang, Ja-gook (Ogre Controlled)
TERRITORIES: Hamgyong Nam-Do, Southern Koguryo, Guol, Dae Shore
Koguryo is a large and diverse land. Containing the temperate forest of Southern Koguryo as well as the marshy swamps of Hamgyong Nam-Do, and the mountainous passes of Guol, Koguryo has something for everyone. There are also three residential villages where citizens of Koguryo may lease plots and homes for a small fee, as well as engage in many leisurely rural activities, from rabbit races, to mazes, to games of G'oh. Koguryo is also home to the History Museum, and the Cemetery.
