Mirovian League

Structure

The main executive and legislative body of Mirovia is called the Tetrarchy: a council of four members, representing the high elves, wood elves, dark elves, and sea elves, respectively. The Tetrarchs each hold an equal amount of power, and must work together to make decisions.

Demography and Population

Mirovia was designed from the outset as a confederation of equals, founded by representatives of the high elf kingdoms, wood elf tribes, sea elf states, and dark elf defector clans. As such, the islands are divided more or less equally among all four.
High elves share a slim majority with wood elves, and make up most of the population in Moonside and outlying towns. They are the main artists, academics, and arcanists of Mirovia, preferring to leave the more hands-on pursuits to other elves.
Wood elven villages are scattered all through the nearly untouched forests of the inland areas. They integrate their homes almost seamlessly with their surroundings, maintaining natural "food forests" of edible plants and game rather than farming the land like other races. Wood elves produce a large portion of the food for their neighbors in this way, with enough to export.
Sea elves live all along the coasts, with a particular concentration in the four smaller islands to the north of Mirovia proper. Not unlike wood elves, they live in harmony with the ocean. Sea elf fishers work according to strict rules that determine where, when, and how they may go fishing or diving for food. This keeps a sustainable supply of everything from shellfish to whales coming into the islands. Because of their skill and reliability, Mirovia is renowned as a source of marine treasures like pearl, abalone, coral, and whale oil.
Drow, or dark elves, can be found all over the islands. Despite their long association with Llolth, there are many dark elves who have forsaken her evil ways in favor of Corellon and Sehanine, and large numbers of them came to Mirovia to get a fresh start. Those who live on the surface sleep during the day and go about their lives at night. Drow are the reason Moonside is known as "a city that never sleeps". But as with all of their fellow citizens, the dark elves were given their own domain; they chose to excavate a vast network of caverns beneath Mirovia, containing the Undercity of Moonside (nicknamed Moonshadow) and many other small towns. These settlements are connected by tunnels that run nearly parallel to the roads, and some enterprising drow are even working on a tunnel to the nearest of the northern islands.
