Tinto
Is Tinto its own nation? Seperated from Dunan and the Grasslands? And is its President, Gustav?

After the Dunan Unification War they became the "Republic of Tinto".

Geographically, they are the most seperated from the other City States because it has a natural moutain boundaries.
Therefore, should a war happen, it is very difficult to supply troops to them as mentioned by Shu during the Neclord mission. Plus, there is a big difference in culture in Tinto ( all those miners). So, I am not surprised if Tinto wanted to be on their own since they do not get full benefits of becoming 1 with the Alliance.

To add,since Tinto did'nt supply any of it's troops during Highland's attacks on Muse and Greenhill in the begining, as well as closing it's borders during the earlier parts of the Dunan Unification War proved they only cared about themselves and not the alliance as a whole.
Besides I think Tinto felt they had enough resources (mining and trading) to become independent from Dunan and expand their borders (thus thier border skirmishes with Zexen)

If I'm not mistaken, the reason why Gustav separated Tinto from Dunan was because of Riou's decision to leave Dunan. Gustav felt that Riou was the only one who would be able to unite Jowston and lead them fairly. Added with the not-so-good relationships between Gustav and Teresa (Riou's successor), it would only be natural that Gustav requested the separation.
And one thing to keep in mind is that despite the separation, the two nations kept good relationships with one another.

Well, Gustav had his reasons and it was for the benefit for his people of Tinto. As for Granmeyer, I wouldn't say he is really that smart. His head was cut off and hung on the walls by Solon Jhee without a strike being blown. =.="True Wind Bearer wrote:Tinto always annoyed me, and so did Gustav . I much prefer Granmeyer, very wise and smart about war.
