Though primarily known for its fine uiske, canny seafaring merchants, and cannier ruffians, the nation of Ord has a fine military tradition both on land and sea. Though poor in natural resources, Ord has always been able to call upon the tenacity and unfaltering bravery of her soldiers, most notably Ascendant Markus himself, who died defending that fortress city. Two major ethnicities dominate Ord, the Tordorans to the North dominate its politics and commerce, and make up the bulk of the population, and the Thurians to the South.
Tordoran Martial Weapons
Tordoran military prowess is largely found on the high sea and defending the mountain passes against Khadoran aggression and the dangerous inhabitants of the wild Thornwood and the Gnarls. They disdain polearms, preferring the use of longbows at range and swords or axes in close.

Thurian Martial Weapons
A people split between Cygnar and Ord, the Thurians as a people are far better-treated than the Umbreans, who has a similar political divide in their traditional territory. Thurians do not enjoy all the privileges of a Tordoran in Ord, but many a renowned marine, sailor, and soldier have come from their number to serve Ord in its times of need.
