The Calin Shogunate

The Shogunate of Calin was the last great state, excepting Thorns, in the Scavenger Lands to join the Confederation of Rivers. The former satrapy of the Realm stretches from the Yanazee River to Marin Bay and is bounded on the east by the River of Tears flowing south from past Sijan.
Calin joined the confederation of Rivers a little over three hundred years ago. and was the last area of the scavenger land to associate itself with rebellion against the realm. Prior to joining, Calin was a tributary and nominal ally of the realm, whose leaders abandoned those obligations when it became clear that the Deliberative was a sham.
Some in the Confederation claim that Calin only joined for the economic benefits, rather when for high-minded political reasons. Certainly, Calin is anything but progresiv state. It is a traditional minded government.
The Shogunate is an elected monarchy, where the shogun serves for life, supported by the hereditary daimyos who head the 14 great families of Calin. The daimyos play a long game of patronage, favors, and intrigue for control of the election of the next shogun, and no one outside the families has ever gained the post.
The people of Calin are still primarily adherents of the Immaculate Order, a belief that often sets them at odds with nearby Sijan. The return of the Solar Exalted, the appearance of Deathknights, and the resurgence of other Exalted has redoubled their faith. Outside the halls of power, the people of Calin wonder if their place would be better as allies of the Realm once again.
Most people work with growing grain that is the life blood of Calin. The nation has a much friendlier reputation when lookshy and is a favorite stop for merchants and traders heading further west or east.
The countryside of Calin is populated, with fortified towns clustered around the castles of the great families. Rolling hills and forests separate the towns. Well managed roads connect the towns and manors.
Calin Shogunate is divided by 15 provinces with a population of four hundred thousand. Every great families are in control of one and the Shogunate family is in control of their own family provinces and the royal territories
