Sviaslen
The chivalric kingdom of Sviaslen has stood for hundreds of years, it's title passed down from father to son since the founders set foot upon the land. Their goal was simple and has been realised - at least in the eyes of those who live their - to create a nation where all people and races are considered equal. slavery has been abolished since the land was named and nobility (although passed primarily through bloodline) is more about ations and honourable behaviours.
several of the noble houses started as little more than farmers or smiths who were elevated by the king in the event of great sacrifice or notable deeds in times of great need.
Each noble family has a small standing force that supports the kings army in times of war and knights are considered the pinnacle of the fighting force. Mounted, heavily armoured men that can transform the outcome of a battle.
Structure
A true kingdom where the title of king is passed from father to first born son, heraldic chivalrous knights and nobles rule the lands in the name of the king. They consider themselves true free people with freedom of religion and where all men can be considered equal.
The king rules over the land with the nobles and land owning knights each ruling over their own small areas of the kingdom.
there are several adventuring guilds and merchant guilds that deal with trade and transport. a single bank that looks after the finances of both the crown and the common man.
