Edic Concord
Structure
Comprised of the seven major city-states that speckle the Highlands, the Edic Concord is a commercial and defensive confederation between the Edic aristocracy, Strigidine sages, and the various Craft Guilds. Each city is headed by a council of nine elected officials, three from each sector, with a tenth member serving as Praetor. As a possession of the Iron Empire, the authority of the Iron King overrules that of the Praetors. With the establishment of the Iron Accord, the Edic Concord is officially released from its fealty and welcomed into a fully equal partnership along with the other former holdings of the Empire.
Public Agenda
The purpose of the Concord is to standardize arcane and commercial laws and production quality as well as provide military assistance in the event of attack.
Assets
The Concord commands the arcane, economic, and militaristic might of the Craft Guilds through the councils and Praetors that rule each city.
Demography and Population
In the urban locales of the Highlands, power is largely arcane, economic, or militaristic. The Councils of Nine run the seven cities and organize the military and political spheres to best support the universities and markets. Guild members of a sufficient rank are able to claim the title of "dom" or "domna" to mark their social class.
