This former part of the Mifora Empire became an important nation due to its geographical location. Being remarkable ship builders and having access to both the Tal River and the Sarodin Sea meant it quickly grew into the most important trade hub in the world.
Its people are of a no-nonsense kind (many would say blunt) who take pride in their profession and living a 'proper' life, instead of wasting their time on this world. This is also why worship of Ulaa is common in the country, even though there are no mountains and little mining, the Dolacs appreciate her diligence.
Technically the country is a monarchy with the current queen, Helia, being a direct descendant of Paneg Sevso himself, at least that is what the royal house claims. However, the queen is not much more than a figure head, the actual power in the nation is held by its many guilds.
A sore point with the guilds is that they never had a real far reaching mercantile house, though Dolac citizens form a very important part of both Abraxis Combine and House Ditta.
The western part of the country is where most of the wealth is concentrated; the shipyards, textile industry, and distilleries. The poorer eastern part contains little more than agricultural and fishing villages, some leather-working industry, and peat bogs.
