Darda /'dɑrdə/ was a confederation of several countries which existed for a period of 3 centuries between 17th and 20th CSR, and throughout its history held a dominant position in the north central region of the Continent, competing with Yammoe for influence in the Eastern Dantrian civilization.
The confederation was established as a way to defend and expand the New Dawn against the native peoples of the northern regions of the Continent, specifically against the Great Turtle tribes.
Etymology
"Darda" means "hope" in Thonthal, but as the word is pronounced without the second d and the second is pronounced in Darda, it's a play on the word "hope".
