	As luck, for the kobolds at least, would have it the rodentfolk were more independent and saw their early diplomatic trades as the temporary situation that it was. Driven higher from their former dark tunnels by dangerous monsters, the rodentfolk quickly set about making not only themselves but the kobolds integral to the lower and middle stratum of society. Over a few decades they swiftly made up much of the work force and, more importantly, greater numbers than the slower reproducing lagus. With the advantages now on their side a new position was negotiated and the lagus allowed a peaceful transition from their sole polity to an equal federation, with each race given its own representative in each hold to make up the federation council.

With the advantages now on their side a new position was negotiated and the lagus allowed a peaceful transition from their sole polity to an equal federation, with each race given its own representative in each hold to make up the federation council.

	While considered quite peaceful and diplomatic, the federation is far from as free as the empire or legion can be considered. The lagus still make up a majority of the administrative and clerical positions within the governing body and their natural psionics make them exceptional diplomats and enforcers. Use of telepaths to scan potential suspects and hypnotism to force out confessions is often seen as a violation by outsiders, but to the federation their bureaucracy sees it as the most effective way to keep the peace. That is not to say the federation is without rights or personal space, ~~only has to have the proper forms~~ and ~~applications submitted to~~ be ~~placed~~ before ~~a telepath after all~~.

That is not to say the federation is without rights or personal space, a complicated network of laws, warrants, and policies must be navigated and written in triplicate before telepaths are employed.

	Externally, the federations rodentfolk tend to be the most common citizenry ~~outsider~~ meet as they own most of the land-bound trade through massive caravans and sprawling ~~lattices~~ of ~~railway~~ that can be likened to their underground tunnels. Since much of the current war is fought just south of the federation mountains the under empire is ever bustling with logistical transfers of soldiers, magical reagents, munitions, and relief transits. It is through this war that most of the empire has learned of the federation and its culture.

	One common mistake by most is that kobolds are relegated to the role of servant, in actuality the kobolds control such as large portion of the civilian market and industry that they can be considered the wealthiest of the three races. The goods that the rodentfolk trade in, after all, were first bought from the kobolds that made them. Another very common mistake is that the lagus are a race of only females. The lagus produce males, but due to a disparaging difference in birth rates it can be said that only one male is born for every hundred females. As a result, males are often kept within their clans holds, used as bartering chips and tokens of trade to greater clans and jealously guarded due to their unique purpose. Luckily for these otherwise imprisoned men they are afforded many rights to leave, join the military, or otherwise escape thanks to campaigns by the rodentfolk and kobolds who did not want to see this state of affairs continue.

	The blood rose pact is the omnicidal fanatics making up the collected elven nation. The blood rose and their ultimate goal is only vaguely understood, they seek to subjugate all life and kill all who resist. As faction elves are consummately evil, no record of anyone or anything produced by the elves be it their own or their many weaved monstrosities of tree and plant have been or acted as anything other than utterly and totally monstrous. Elves disdain life, both for themselves and others, seeking to murder any in the most brutal and sadistic way possible. Settlements attacked by elves were often decorated with grizzly trophies to instill fear on anyone who found them later. Those who have engaged elves in melee believe their disdain for range weaponry is solely so they might watch the fear and light leave a person's eyes as they are murdered.

	Strangely, elves will accept surrender, those who have are taken are never seen or heard from again. Many believe that said individuals are merely enslaved, others hypothesize that they are weaved into elves, while the most dismal think they are ground into fertilizers to fuel the elves horrific plant monsters they employ on the front lines of the war. Whatever truly happens to those foolish enough to surrender is little more than speculation, often horrific, but never confirmed.

	The blood rose pact is currently locked in a war against the entire world with the most active field of conflict being just south of the warren federations mountain home. This blasted war torn fields have seen decades of conflict with the blood rose sending elves and their abominations into a quite literal meat grinder. To the dismay of many, there numbers never seem to deplete and every few months another horde runs screaming through artillery lines, rifle range, and into the walls of trenches where they are cut down by the waiting joint defense force of the onokrin empire and warren federation.

	'''History:''' The Crown is, even to this day, less of a unified nation and more of an assembly of warring clans who are still at conflict, often encouraged by the ruling shogun. The island is separated into provinces that contain villages and wide swathes of farmland and industry kept control of by local lords called daiyomo who compete in small scale wars and border conflicts to capture and secure territory and resources from other daiyomo. This had for centuries been the norm until what would become the steel legion were contacted by the growing empire with the arrival of fishing vessels and explorers. Those who were first contacted were samurai loyal to Sonaba the Eternal, a minotauress who saw immediate value and desire for firearms and steel carried by these early explorers. Quickly securing alliances and trade Sonaba outfitted not only her samurai but the peasantry conscripted into military service that quickly overwhelmed the still bow wielding provinces until Sonaba declared herself shogun and formed the steel legion from the remaining daiyomo who bent the knee to their new emperor. Since then, under the direction of the unified provinces and the ruling shogunate the legion has expanded, building ships and forging a place for themselves as the undisputed rulers of the seas and deep allies of the empire, whom the shogunate considers owing an eternal blood debt for allowing them to conquer all rivals.

	'''Economy:''' The Crown is an island nations whose export is, unsurprisingly, steel weapons. While blades and weapons forged by the master smiths of the Legion are considered best in the world, those who truly wish to spend lavishly buy armor forged first by the legion to be later enchanted and refined by the magic of ogres. However, arms and armor are secondary to the chief export of magical reagents obtained by the hunting of the deep sea or island monsters surrounding the crown. These massive titans felled by legion ships or hunted by mercenary companies are valued for their immense magical properties ranging from blood to bones to strange and exotic organs whose properties are not even fully understood by the mages who use them. Lastly, the best ship builders in all the world can be found here, with vessels lining the ports ranging from battle barges to fishing ships to merchant vessels as large and well defended as a fortress.

	'''Crime:''' Crime is a peculiar thing in The Crown. Enforcers do not exist, there is no set form of law and order besides which ever ruling daiyomo (the Legion's word for lord) chooses to enforce. When one is wronged and feels the need to seek justice one must exact this themselves or pay a samurai employed by the local daiyomo is enforce justice. These samurai are little more than state mercenaries, enacting justice impartially and at the behest of the highest bidder. The code of conduct made by the ruling daiyomo decides if they will accept payment to bring justice upon an offender, the flexible nature of what is considered a crime altered by the status and money whoever is paying has. As a general rule, those who live in The Crown are fastidiously polite and extremely careful with both words and actions, as money can be paramount unless an individual thinks they can win against a samurai whose sole purpose is to act as the blade of their daiyomo. The one saving grace is that, should one be challenged by a paid samurai, killing said samurai prevents retribution and further pursuit by those who originally contracted them. Though might rarely makes right, as such enforcement is entirely up to the daiyomo and whatever mood takes them. Often times, individuals will simply hire their own samurai and the resulting duel between them decides who must pay or “make right” towards the perceived victim. These are often honored by everyone, even the daiyomo.		'''Crime:''' Crime is a peculiar thing in The Crown.

Ogres and orcs who are considered “yokai” by the natives when they become oni are often welcomed, considered by the locals as signs of good luck and bringers of fortune.
