This small, broken continent is home to a loose confederation of city states. They have all recently freed themselves from the rule of the Empire of Albion. The governments that have replaced the haughty Elves may be despotic in their own way, but it’s a home-grown type of corruption that their respective populations can stomach for now. The members of these territories have benefited from the free trade and security that comes with mutual alliance, but they still remember the wounds of toiling under Imperial rule.

Throughout the continent one governmental principal holds sway. “No elf may wear the crown.” Whatever system any city operates under, elves are barred from holding a ruling position in memory of long-time despotism.
