Trigwocket (nation)

Trigwocket, officially the Independent Gnomish State of Trigwocket, is a country in east central Gernon.

Territory
Trigwocket consists of a small mostly rectangular territory surrounding the capital town of Fruferack and some of the northern parts of the Dorry Hills. It is bounded on the west by the River Ark, and extends slightly beyond the Dorian River in the east. It is a landlocked nation enclaved within the Scientarian Empire. It borders two subdivisions of the empire, including the Kingdom of the Silver throne and the Valros Province.

History
Trigwocket was founded in 25 asr by its namesake, the famed engineerateer Trigwocket. Following the defeat of Phentis and the end of the Infernal Wars, Trigwocket was given a Greater Wish by Lucifer as thanks for bringing down his unruly subordinate. Trigwocket wished for an independent gnome homeland like he had always wanted, and the god of hell carved the space out of the Scientarian Empire. The independence of Trigwocket is guaranteed by the legions of Hell, and allows the free worship of Lucifer in the territory. While many gnomes are disgusted by the devil worship in their midst, it is by no means a state religion and the traditional whimsical ways of the gnomes reign supreme in Trigwocket.
