==History & Culture The County of Jugenskaja is a relatively new county. A central county within the Barony of K'Tzuni, it is land locked and is currently maintained by Count Nickolas Turner.
Hundreds (if not thousands) of years ago (around 12 ASC), a nomadic tribe resided here called the Juuk's, which roughly translates into southern peoples in their native language. The tribe itself was nomadic, but found the rich farmland of this land to be superior to that of the surrounding land. For the next thousand years, mingling with neighboring tribes and civilizations the modern people of Jugenskaja came about.
The Juuks became known for their fine metal work, as natural deposits of chromium were found throughout the land. Lavish statues, jewelry and other trinkets made the Juuks a center of great wealth and trade. Northern tribes traded their gold for the Juuks artistry, thus allowing them to incorporate gold into their works, as seen below.
The small statuette of a Juuk chieftain above is made of pure chromium with gold accents, and probably one of the most valuable items found in recent excavations; dated around 49 ASC.
By the mid 70's a trade route was established with people from the northern Benacia region, bringing hearty grains to the Juuks. This in turn gave the Juuks a reputation for distilling fine spirits of exceptional strength.
==Late 90's ASC As the Juuks grew in numbers they spread throughout most of what is now Jugenskaja, some of the surrounding counties such as eastern Highpass, southern and central Caverden and small portions of northern most Lywind. In times before Shireroth, the Juuk Empire was feared by most neighboring tribes for their feirce warriors and rather modern siege machines.
