States
In Norland, there are two main types of states – vassal kingdoms and alliances of free cities. In both cases, there is a head of state and dependent provinces that trade independence for protection.
Vassal Kingdoms
- The royal province is marked with a crown on the world map.
- United by the force of the king. This aggressive action is not very favored by the Matriarch.
- Vassals pay tribute in gold and lose the right to a foreign policy. The suzerain is obliged to protect the vassals.
- These kingdoms can expand rapidly by directly conquering their neighbors.
Alliances of Free Cities
- The head of the alliance is marked with wings on the world map.
- They expand quite simply – it requires having good relations with the head of the alliance.
- All allied cities are obliged to send an army to defend other members of the alliance but are also deprived of the right to conduct their own policy.
- The head of the alliance is limited in their foreign policy – they have the right to coerce neighboring cities into neutrality but cannot absorb anyone by force.
