	The Kingdom of David, also known as '''The Kingdom of [[New Eden]]''', is the oldest human settlement on [[Raana]]. Located to the north of Ikaanos, about a two-week ride away, the Kingdom of David was founded roughly 360 years ago and boasts a small population that traces all the way back to the original clans and town-states formed by the first settlers. Although boasting a very small population compared to the million-plus citizens of Ikaanos, the Davidians are a hardy and resilient people forged from hundreds of years of fighting various natural threats in the swamps and jungles surrounding the capital, '''[[New Eden]]'''. The harsh terrain also makes any military invasion of the capital from the Kingdom's enemies nearly impossible. Outside of the swamps and jungles that make up the center of Davidian territory are huge swathes of fertile farmland, which are much more exposed and present a tempting target for raids and annexations. The [[The Border Wars\|Border Wars]] were fought for this reason, as Ikaanos attempted to claim some farmland from the Kingdom of David.

	The Kingdom of David's military consists of a small standing force of soldiers numbering about 5,000 men.

The current population can support about 15,000 men being called away to war. Any more than that will likely lead to a critical shortage of manpower that would see crucial farmland go untended, risking famine.
