Tithera
A Mountainous and heavy woodland City State, Tithera has had great ties to the feywild and the creatures of nature. Once upon a time, the leaders were chosen from Thinkers, brought together from Archon’s and commoner alike. When the previous leader died, or showed a clear case of mental infirmity, they would bring together hopefuls and test their ability to solve puzzles, think strategy and prove their intellectual prowess.
The winner was then chosen by a council of elders, and vaulted to King or Queen, while also being brought into a noble family if they did not hail from one.
That last leader chosen by this method was in 1526, who rules to this day in an unaging state and showing no signs of giving way.

Religion
While the Great Hellanic Pantheon is observed, and has many shrines across Tithera, the Majority of worship is given to Girokti, Goddess of the Earth and Agriculture and Sedloga, God of Smithing and Crafting.
The denizens of Tithera also give a great amount of dedication to Denryas, Goddess of Dryads and the Trees, from the Lesser Hellanic Pantheon, in large part to the connection to the Forest of Denryas that their land resides on.

Legislative Body
All Laws, Rules and matters of state are carried out by the Rousia, a council that consists of eight members, under the supervision of the Anassa Orator. In matters of great importance, the Anassa Orator will often order that all Archon's - that are not part of the Rousia - to join proceedings.
The Rousia meet weekly to discuss matters of import, though this can become more frequent if matters of state require it.
All of the Laws and Rules must first be approved by the Anassa Orator, who has final say and word on all matters, no matter the importance.
The Current Members of the Rousia of Tithera as of 1595 are:
