Once part of The Empire of the White Flame, this human kingdom features the only active volcano on Mundus.
Military
Argo has both a strong professional army and navy and legal conscription of both people and civilian ships, conscription can be enacted only in case of an invasion of the island and conscripts can only fight on the island itself. The argonian professional army although not numerous is possibly the best on the continent in training and equipment they use armor and shields made of orichalcum and are armed with two spears and one short curved sword, their armor does not cover their whole body but the soldiers are trained to fight defensively both in formation and in 1v1. Soldiers of Argo train 10 hours each day and their training regiment is known to be one of the hardest in the continent.
Economy
Mercantile trade is done almost exclusively by sea exports including adamantium, wine, wool, and sheepskins, imports include valuable metals and dimerithium used to create orichalcum.
Government
The island is governed by two kings both titles are for life one King follows a hereditary agnatic primogeniture, while the second king is elected by the Senate, the army is divided amongst the Kings, the elected king commands the professional forces and the hereditary king commands the conscripts and the guards (except for the royal guard which is equally divided amongst the kings). To distinguish the kings argonians use colors, red is associated with the one who is King by blood, and blue with the elected King. The Senate is formed of 60 citizens over 45 years of age voted by the populous, the role is for life but can be voluntarily relinquished if one wishes to retire, the title of senator is still used for one who retired but holds political power no longer. Other than electing the blue King, senators have the duty of proposing and acting laws, both kings have the power of veto, this veto is then put into a vote that needs the 2/3 majority of the senate and one king to overrule it. The kings can enact temporary royal decrees without the senate if they agree, these decrees last only a month at which time the senate can choose to modify them and enact a proper law that is aimed at solving the very issue the decree was enacted for, or they can simply ignore the decree if they disagree with the intent.
Unique materials
Orichalcum is a special metal alloy made only in Argo, this metal absorbs magic and kinetic impacts, shields of argonian soldiers made from this metal are capable of resisting magic and artillery bombardments, such material permits the argonian shield wall to be an immovable threat that cannot be dislodged by long-range superiority.
