Brudor

Brudor is a settlement in southern Brazak West near the border with the St Lowes Neutral Zone, across the Nezzu Strait from Ganzabar. Due to its position on the southern fringes of Brazak West's airspace, its relatively small port is often very busy with ships passing in and out of the nation. As a convenient resupply point between the Nezzu Academy and the Junders Neutral Zone, Brudor has also recently become a hub for military craft.

History

Brudor was originally further north to where it is today and known as Brosk. The town began as an outpost in southern-central Great Brazak, but the fort was shifted west during the Old Nezzu War to bolster defensive operations there. The small town was one of the first to fall to Ganzabi invaders and renamed Bruder; after the Ganzabi entrepreneur Hanz Bruder. Over the course of the occupation, it flourished within relative sanctuary. Away from the worst partisan activity and taking no direct part in the Liberation War, Brudor was something of a refuge in a troubled country.

When the Brazakkers declared the nation of Brazak West in 9317, there were proposals to rename the town back to Brosk. However the people objected; most of its number being recent arrivals that had grown attached to their new name. A compromise was made and a more Brazak spelling introduced.
