The Havolorian Dynasty is often held up as an example of ineffective, continuous failures in statecraft. Seeking to reign in many of the independence that duchies had enjoyed under the DuNentis, the Havolorians spent much of their time demanding tribute, or enacting decrees meant to paralyze or emasculate their fealty-givers.
Relations soured greatly, as well, with the Elves of Myrh and the Arborlonian Elves, and with the Clanland Dwarves and those of the Lower Wold. The Kingdom’s power was waning.
The Havolorian Dynasty ended with the conflict that would almost destroy the entire continent: the Rising of the Three.
