In 1615 HE, with Balmoloch its capital, the Draguron Syndicate was established by a merchant lord named Dragur Morerenne. Under him, and for two centuries, Draguron interests had a largely commercial approach, creating a network of groups and companies involved in both government and business.
In 1633 HE, in need of resources for big spending Nitthirân buyers, the Syndicate pushed into the platinum-rich hills of Esto'khar. Long territory of the Itu Esto'khar, war ensued. In 1801 HE, the Esto'khar Conflict ended with the natives paid off or beaten, made "loyal" citizens of the empire.
In the Year 166, corruption led to a coup, replacing the syndicate-styled government with a dictatorship. The new boss was a hobgoblin general looking to expand the empire beyond a legal code constrained by profit and loss statements. Starting the Begnhidrir War, Empress Loreah pushed north into Ice Cap, settling old scores from the time of Esto'khar's tribes, battling the Goliath of Hel and others of the northern glacial tracts.
In 185, defeated by the Ice Brothers Pact, the Draguron Empire came to an end. The Peace of Moth, with stiff conditions, dismantled the empire, returning Esto'khar to tribal interests, leaving the capital a ruin, and making Balmoloch a vassal state of the conquerors.
