The continent of Kahara can be a complicated place with a wide range of polities and types of governance. While it's difficult for one page to spell out all the nuances of inter-polity relationships between everyone, this is a place to discuss some general tendencies.

Centralizing States

While there are no truly centralized states in Kahara the way we would think about it in the real world, there are a couple cases in Kahara where rulers are starting the centuries long process of consolidating control in a more centralized way. While these polities still have a wide range of internal conflicts, the power of individual nobility is slowly being eroded in favor of centralized control. Rulers still need to tend to the concerns of their elites, and there is often conflict from those nobles who are unhappy with the prospects of losing traditional privileges, but the process of centralization has given the ruler a greater ability to manage these conflicts.

Polities in this category are:

  1. Moriquende
  2. Selesymemar
