CultureEdit
One of the notable things about Diadem is it's citizen's superstitious nature and dislike towards foreigners, particularly those from Alfard. These most likely tie in together, as a few of Diadem's strange superstitions involve people from the other lands, such as allowing someone from outside Diadem on a fisherman’s boat heralding a bad catch. What is interesting about these superstitions though, most having their origins in the village of Nashira, is that they seem to be for good reason, as both times someone has gone against them it has been immediately followed by the country's near invasion.
GovernmentEdit
Diadem is led by King Ladekahn.
