	Hewrot is formally a small ~~feifdom in a mountain valley~~ adjacent to [[Rowen]], with a population of roughly thirty-five hundred. While officially part of Rowen, Hewrot has its own monarchy, who are an off-shoot of the Rowen royal family. The "kingdom's" roots go all the way back to the [[Mage Wars]]. The royal line is by no means unbroken, but the fiefdom has always been ruled by a wealthy family with ties to the Rowen monarchs. The king of Hewrot is part of the Line of Succession of Rowen Monarchs.		Hewrot is formally a small fiefdom adjacent to [[Rowen]], with a population of roughly thirty-five hundred.

	In general, Hewrowens self-identify as Rowens and practice the usual customs and traditions of the region; but there are a few distinctly Hewrowen customs: among them is a deep commitment to hospitality. Being a mountain kingdom, prone to severe snow storms, the Hewrowenese feel that if a traveler comes to your door seeking shelter, he should leave your home better equipped than he arrived.

	This extends to a general culture of giving and sharing. While most Hewrowens do not enjoy as high a standard of living as the average Rowen, their state has virtually no poverty ~~to speak of~~. Many who cannot provide for themselves, are fed and housed by the community, and in exchange, offer what skills they have.		This extends to a general culture of giving and sharing.

	Crime, while rampant throughout Rowen, is extremely uncommon in Hewrot. Money and objects of intrinsic value are rare, but the culture also heavily believes that it is better to give something away than to have it taken. To steal is considered very shameful when most would freely give what they have. To steal for personal gain (not for food or survival) is worse than murder in the eyes of most Hewrowen. Murder, incidentally, happens about once a century.		Crime, while rampant throughout Rowen, is extremely uncommon in Hewrot.
