4 DY: a feud almost erupted between the Sheablands and the downriver plantation region of Goodlo Bar over the exportation of sugar (which the Sheablands depends on for many of its products). When the flow of sugar was threatened to be severely curtailed, in turn it was threatened that the river would be dammed near its source, which would have caused a drought in the downriver fields.
Eventually situation was resolved to both leader's satisfaction, and as a side effect Goodlo Bar gained ownership of all the male German Shepherds, while the Sheablands retains custodianship of the female German Shepherds (because girl dogs are better).
7 DY: the Sheablands sent a small land survey delegation to the neighboring territory ruled by Mardur to dispute land ownership markers. When Thorne adamantly insisted the markers were accurate, Rasheab offered to purchase the area, and then proposed to gamble for the territory (with terrible odds to himself). While settling the terms for the wager he was stabbed with a poison dagger by Scritta.
OOC
