Occupation by the Fjordell Empire

About six months prior to the restoration of Elantris the Duladel Republic collapsed.

The Duladel Revolution was described as being even more violent than the Arelish Revolution following the Fall of Elantris; the Republican Class was killed in its entirety. A monarchy was then instituted and Shu-Dereth replaced Jesker as the state religion. Its collapse prompted the marriage of Prince Raoden of Arelon and Princess Sarene of Teod,Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content as those two nations were the only two non-Derethi nations left.

Language

Duladen was the language spoken by the Dula people. It reflected the "laid back, loose culture" of Duladel.[1]
