GERSHON (Ger-shon)
Overview
Gershon is a nation located in western Lavantia filled with lish landscapes and various mountains along the borders. Gershon is a close neighbor to the nation of Kerrosano, with the two sharing maritime relations. Gershon is a nation well-known for its legendary Marpe Waters, the founding of the first Sages, and where the roots of the Adonailym faith can be found.Structure
Within the nation of Gershon, the social structure is markedly different from the other nations within Lavantia. There is no set aristocracy among the people, although clans and sub-clans can reach esteemed status. There is a healthy respect for elders who are seen as pillars of wisdom, who are also expected to be good examples for their kinsmen. Those who hold office are treated with respect, and all offices ultimately answer to the Gershon High Council. Government positions are more flexible due to each tribe having the right to govern as they please within their own lands, provided they do not do anything to endanger the nation as a whole.
Military
The military of the Gershonites are divided among the four tribes, with the top leaders of each of the three tribes holding the rank of Supreme Commander. Each Supreme Commander leads the tribe’s armed forces, and determines their overall military strategy. All three Supreme Commanders from the three tribes form the Gershon Host, a council of military leadership who meet to discuss overall military affairs of the Gershon people.
