Book excerpt: From the marble galleries of many-statued Almas to the goblin-haunted forests of Darkmoon Vale, the song of freedom spreads throughout the nation of Andoran. Common rule -- by man, not by divinely inspired kings -- has guided the nation for nearly a century, influencing the whole of the Inner Sea and indeed the world itself with radical new political ideas and one of the strongest economic engines in the hemisphere. This comprehensive guide to the revolutionary realm of Andoran provides a cultural and historical overview, a summary of important philosophies, and factions, regional traits, and character ideas of special interest to Pathfinder Roleplaying Game players.
