Esrolia is a civilized queendom in the Holy Country. Esrolian families are matrilineal and ruled by matriarchs. It is densely populated; “too dense,” say many. The residents here are mostly farmers worshiping Ernalda the Earth Mother and her family. The Mother here has many lovers, although Orlanth is her husband and her favorite. Barntar is the most popular men’s god.
Although Esrolia is primarily rural and agricultural, it has a large urban population and is a great center of trade. Esrolia has powerful mercantile interests and its ships travel to far-off distant ports. Esrolian architects, artists, crafters, healers, and scribes are among the greatest in Glorantha.
