Shou Lung

The Empire of Shou Lung (also known as The Great Dragon) is the most powerful force on the continent of Kara Tur. It spans several thousand miles of territory, hundreds of ethnic groups (including nonhumans), and at least 100 million citizens. Shou Lung has invaded Oyashima before, but the relative impassability of the sea between the two nations, intervening bandit kingdoms and bad terrain serve to keep the two giants from one another's throats in most cases.
