Duthaich Kingdom
Structure
Each of the clans which makes up Duthaich has its own Chief Family who rule like a king and queen. These chiefs support the High King and Queen, who govern the entire Duthaich Kingdom. Members of the Queen's Royal Clan make up most of the bureaucratic roles throughout the major cities and towns of the consolidated kingdom, which helps the Royal Family maintain its control long term.
Technological Level
From the exterior elves appear to life an subsistence, hunter gather lifestyle. In reality they practice a form of agriculture called Forest Gardening. This is a complex form of polycropping taking advantage of the huge diversity of plants native to each forest the elves call home. Elves are also skilled herdsmen, thought small size of their herds and unusual composition of species has confused many visitors about their actual nature. Included among these animals are the typical domesticates of pigs, chickens, and goats, as well as foxes, bear, ravens/owls, and deer, with moose acting as their primary beast of burden.
Elves eschew metallic weaponry, preferring to use traditional bone and wood tools. In contrast to their gnomish allies, they shun new technological developments and prefer to rely on their natural and formidable magical gifts. Of course, these are generalizations over multiple elvish ethnic groups, each of which has their own variations in preferred technology.
