The Margrash Federation

Formed in after the War of Liberation by several of the factions of the Goblinoid-Human-Orc Alliance who could not agree on a path for the newly freed peoples. Consisting of seven largely independent counties the Federation shares an army, navy, and postal system, and collaborates other key issues that affect all of the constituent counties in the Federation. Though each county remains an independent government, The Federated Council of Counts oversees and rules on crimes and other concerns that the counties agree upon. For example, the Federated Council has the final say on crimes such as murder, kidnapping that crosses county lines, and espionage that could destabilize the alliance between the counties. Otherwise, the counties govern themselves without outside interference. The elite Umbral Knights work to police crimes that concern the Federation and report directly to the Council. At the county level, the member states of the Federation vary in their governance, with monarchies, democracy, anarcho-syndicalism, and more all represented. Ostensibly, to prevent complacency, the members of the council can serve no more than three years, however, given that the leaders of some of the counties are not similarly limited many select their county's representative from those they believe they can trust. While the representative who sits on the Council also rules in some of the counties, others have different structures of governance.

The Counties

1. Evergreen County: Formed by the Greenleaf rebel group the Count serves a one-year term, after being selected from a list put forth by nominations vetted by the local townships.
2. Foam Creek County: A direct democracy formed by the Shieldbreakers and Tree Stalker factions, the Count serves a two-year term unless voted out by a 2/3 rds majority.
3. Horath's County: Named after the goblin leader of the Hands of Dust rebel faction, a council of scholars, mages, and other learned individuals selected by the people rules the county. The county council selects the current representative on the Federation Council each year, though no one may serve more than three years in total.
4. Falling Blade County: Established by the Broken Yoke Faction, the monarch of this county annually selects a count to represent them in the council.
5. Twilight Moon County: A representative democracy organized by the Twilight Moon Faction, a vice president chosen by the current ruler serves on the Council.
6. Red Sands County: Created by the Red Sands faction, several guilds run the nation with each forming a voting bloc that creates an ever-shifting array of alliances to get things done. The guilds vote every two years on a Council representative using a ranked voting system.
7. Mikeva County: The original head of the Cunning Cat faction created this county as a military autocray. The ruler of the County selects a new representative every three years.
