Shesire Sovereignty
"Through the our warm embrace and cold domination we will provide safety"
The Shesire Sovereignty started as a monarchy led by the daughters of Enser Lumo Flame. The sovereignty mainly consisted of Ashen and created the Code of Red Law to help control the people of their sovereignty.
Beginning
Everything is very much intuned with nature and filled with the Totems' influence over everyone residing inside their land, they usually wouldn't prosecute worshippers of other religions unless during wartime. Worship is a key factor to their success as they were born through their divine connection to the spirit Shesire. This is why the Flame bloodline held the seat of royalty until the last heir went missing. The empire was built on the backbones of slavery but outlawed the practice to a certain degree after signing the Treaty of the Flying Baron, with Mirna Flame signing the Seraphic Rapture to completely abolish.Structure
The power dynamic follows the Infernal Emperor, a title passed down to each daughter of the Emperor. Right below the Emperor is a council of eight priests. In the year 75AS after Mirna Flame stood down the power of the Sovereignty was given purely to the council. The council consists of traditionally eight priests of The Totems, the only exception is Marduh who doesn't have a priest in his chair as he is seen as a betrayer spirit. The eighth seat is voluntary given up to the partner of the Emperor, however after the Emperor lineage came to an end it was given back to the Marduh Priests. They hold a tight grip on their realm through the use of the Scarlet Legion, their personal military which swears loyalty to the Infernal Emperor.Distribution of Land
The council of priests, known as the Totems, played a crucial role in the distribution of land. Both before and after the retirement of the emperor, the council of priests oversaw the distribution of land to Chadar, temples dedicated to rulering a province each. Individuals responsible for managing the allocated Chadar were known as Earls. Each province was overseen by an Earl, who held the sacred duty of protecting all the inhabitants within their designated territory. Earls were responsible for maintaining the balance and order within their lands, in exchange for the protection offered by the Shesire Sovereignty.Barons and Lending of Land
Earls had the authority to lend portions of their allocated land to individuals known as Barons. Barons were often not directly associated with the priesthood like the Earls. Instead, they could be generals, scholars, or other individuals with tactical skills and expertise. The title of Baron was typically hereditary, with the right to pass it down to their heirs. However, this inheritance was subject to approval by the respective Earl who granted the land.Military and Balance
The primary military force of the Shesire Sovereignty was the Scarlet Legion, which swore loyalty to the Infernal Emperor. While the Scarlet Legion originated as the personal military force of the Sovereignty, each province was responsible for maintaining the overall balance and order within their territories. Earls held the responsibility of ensuring the equilibrium of the realm, which was exchanged for the protection offered by the Sovereignty.Culture
They have a divine connection, knowing they are made from the intervention of the divines. This gives them the idea on striving to make themselves worth that blessing.
History
Starting as an offshoot of the Helman empire when the War of the Flying Baron began, or rather that is the tail they would have you believe.
In truth they began by overthrowing the last government.
Nothing can't be achieved without the divine blessing.
