The Empire

The Emperor
The elected head of the Realm, all Emperors are selected from an elite group of nobility that solely consists of the Princes, Grand Counts, and their sons and grandsons. The current Emperor, Conrad Von Hindenburg, was the son of the former Emperor. Over the ages, the position of Emperor has fluctuated between being a strong central authority and a mere figure head.

Borders
To the west, there are the Kingdoms of the Albarans, of which there are four. Albara, Umbara, Talland, and Hrafnahiem. All four of which have been known to launch raids into the Imperial provinces of Wulfenland, Barland, Rebeland, and the trade Enclave of Munzeburg. To the East there is the Spine, the largest known mountain range. Which is populated chiefly by the Dwarven Freeholds and the Goblin tribes, both of whom are known to come down from their mountain holds to assault the bordering provinces of Spinnenland, Adlerland, and Eberland. To the North are the mostly peaceful human Empire of Rossyia,there are raids from outcasts that the Tzars have muscled across their border into the province of Adlerland and Munzeburg. To the South the Lowelanders guard against the Orc clans and the Cassock humans. Internally, the deep forests that are common across the Empire shields thousands of beastman raiders that raid all across the Empire.
