About Duché de Coeur
Duché de Coeur is a fictitious area of France that comprises the real life regions of Provence, Languedoc, Aquitaine, and Poitou, Normandie, Touraine, and Franche-Comté. It is an accurate depiction of a world of friendship and romance as it might have been around the Age of Enlightenment of some 225 years ago, in an idealistic world where all classes live together in harmony. Further information on Duché de Coeur can be obtained from Bedrich Panacek or SkyeRyder Varriale.
