Calios
Structure
The king acts as the highest authority with the nobility and knights directly under him.
Culture
Calian society emphasizes the importance of magic and applies it to nearly all levels of its citizenry. Commoners who show magical potential often have more opportunities availed to them such as research and military positions. The nobility prides itself on having bloodlines with strong affinities towards magic. Even when non-magic families are promoted into court, there is often an unspoken need for them to incorporate a magical bloodline in order to better secure their claim.
That is not to say that non-magic citizens are ostracized or left by the wayside. As stated above, it is not unknown for such families to earn a place in court for themselves. Many citizens are able to distinguish themselves through military service, successes in trade, diplomacy, scholarly achievement, and other paths worth merit.
