Kingsessing State
Shadow Republic
The Kingsessing State is ruled by the particularly active Mara. The State has no sheriff, as these (And most other duties) are managed to Mara themselves. Fortunately, the governors have little interest in medding in the day-to-day affairs of kindred, leaving them mostly on their own as long as they abide by the laws, at least publically.
State Laws
Feeding: All kindred may feed on any unclaimed territory.
Havens: Havens may be established, if notice is given to the Governor.
Disciplines: No restrictions save the laws of the Shadow Republic.
Bartram's Garden: No kindred are allowed anywhere on the Bartram's Garden grounds, on the punishment of Final Death.
Philadelphia
The Kingsessing State incorporates the Southwest Philadelphia. Southwest Philadelphia (formerly Kingsessing Township) is a section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. The section can be described as extending from the western side of the Schuylkill River to the city line, with the SEPTA. The northern border is defined by the Philadelphia City Planning Commission as east from the city line along Baltimore Avenue moving south along 51st Street to Springfield Ave. It follows the train tracks until 49th Street. From 49th and Kingsessing Ave the line moves east along Kingsessing Ave. The line then moves south along 46th St to Paschall Ave where it jogs to join Grays Ferry where the line runs to the Schuylkill River.
Southwest Philadelphia is also described by the city as being the area south of Baltimore Avenue; this definition has historical merit as Baltimore Avenue between 49th and 52nd Streets was known as "The Hub of Southwest Philadelphia" at the turn of the 20th century. The Philadelphia Police Department patrols two districts located within Southwest Philadelphia. The two patrol districts serving Southwest Philadelphia are the 12th and 77th districts. Historically home to many Irish American neighborhoods, the section now has a large African American population.
