Shorthand: Legion is a mercenary company & country. It maintains an impeccable service record, when under contract. However when out of contract Legion can be unpredictable, and is subject to the whims and friendships/grudges of its leaders and warriors.
While members and warbands of Legion come from the whole width and length of Dargarth, the first warbands hailed from the great desert, in the southeast of the continent. There they were a nomadic and warrior people, until the spread of the "civilized" nations united them to protect their ancient way of life.

Real World History - "Team Belegarth"
Legion was founded as a country for Belegarth cross-gamers at Dargarth. The intent was to create a group for cross-gamers so they can easily participate when visiting. Since its creation it has become an excuse for the Washington Belegarth and Dagorhir groups to meet at a central location and fight those we don't otherwise normally see. "Legion" was chosen for as Belegrim we are many, and the Chaos Star as our symbol because what other design is used more throughout Belegarth and Dagorhir?
Legion is comprised mostly of Belegarth fighters, though it is by no means exclusive and counts members of Dagorhir, Amtgard, and Dargarth among its ranks. While a majority of Belegarth cross-gamers are Legion members, several are members of Mardur, and Endor was founded by the fighters of Talinor, the Kitsap County Belegarth/Dagorhir realm.
Out-of-Character Note
It is Legion policy to mount an attack on a country if they have failed to appear for three (3) or more months. The reason being is that after that point the nobles may declare a country disbanded. We don't want a country to go "defunct;" we wish to create a good reason for you to gather your forces and come out and visit. We would much rather have a fun and rowdy fight day with friends (or friendly rivals) than to see your country declared abandoned and wiped from the map.
