Latem
Bordering Rezhpol, Nyssai and the Selaki region, the City state of Latem has seen enough war over its time, not helped by their wealthy iron mines. They are one of the many City States who have taken it upon themselves to stand as a bulwark against prospective invasion forces.
The Leader of Latem is chosen from Military stock, and must undergo The Triadok. Those who are successful and rise victorious may take their seat as Stratigos of Latem.

Fortifications
Given their borders with two incredibly powerful countries, Rezhpol and Nyssai, their military must be kept in constant movement and in patrol upon their border. With the help of neighboring Kadmur, Latem has taken to building fairly substantial border walls and guarding. In the past few years, they have begun building up their sea border with Nyssai.

Military

Due to the fact that Hoplites and their seniors enjoy a greater social status, many choose to remain in the military.

Legislative Body
All laws, rules and matters of state are carried out by a Council of Military individuals in the Stratósterion. Latem's Council consists of eight Taxiarhos, led by a single Stratigos. This council deals with major matters that regard to the state, with the Stratigos always having the final say. All other matters are dealt with by the leaders of the various towns and cities under Latem's domain. They meet frequently, the exact frequency dependant on necessity for the State.
The Taxiarhos of Latem are:
- Taxiarhos Euandros Ganas of Latem (Minotaur, Male)
- Taxiarhos Galar Rakder of Latem (Wood Elf, Female)
- Taxiarhos Ea Theodoropoulos of Cindus (Tiefling, Female)
- Taxiarhos Kassandra Philes of Cindus (Minotaur, Female)
- Taxiarhos Alektos Andino of Aegin (Centaur, Female)
- Taxiarhos Astraea Hatzi of Aegin (Aarakocra, Female)
- Taxiarhos Ael Gataki of Naxar (Wood Elf, Agender)
- Taxiarhos Kastor Levidis of Naxar (Human, Arren Cybattis)
Judicial Body
As a militant city state, the day to day dealings of the law are maintained by Hoplite and Lokhagos not currently on active duty. In extreme cases of warfare, Polis can be invested with judical power to maintain the application of the law.
In judical matters, all items are judged by the most senior officer available - normally a Tagmatarkhis.
