The most ancient continuously-inhabited city in the eastern portion of the [[Federated Nations]], Fuar Uulan was the ancestral clan-hold of the Uulan clan before the [[Cataclysm]] (and for centuries before that). The Fuar clan joined them soon before the [[Cataclysm]], making the city Fuar Uulan. In the wake of the [[Cataclysm]], when the surviving dwarven clans (led by clan Alkh) made their way south, they were taken in by their relatives, and the city grew tremendously (and many daughter clan-holds were formed in those mountains). Fuar Uulan joined the newly-formed [[Council Lands]] as the second city after [[Kaelthia]].

Fuar Uulan remained the traditional and religious center of dwarven life in the [[Council Lands]] until the end of the Council in 227 AC, although much of the commercial life moved to [[Kaelthia]] to escape the stifling traditionalism of the underground city. A good chunk of the disaffected, non-traditional dwarves went north to [[Shinevog]] in the last decade or so of the Council as well. With the civil war that erupted after the [[Guildmasters]] plot, Fuar Uulan and the rest of the dwarven community in the [[Outer Barrier Range]] pulled in their horns, ejected most of the non-dwarven populace, and shut their gates (as dwarves are so wont to do when troubles arise outside). They remained mostly untouched by the civil war, although a few clans broke away and joined different sides.

In the [[Treaty of Rauviz]] that ended the war, Fuar Uulan was made the capital of the [[Uulan Confederacy]], a position it has retained in the 20 years since that event. Compared to most of the capital cities, it is somewhat sleepy and small--non-dwarves are allowed inside but are generally not made welcome.
