- The Crisis
- 10/25/2017::Once proud and glorious realm of Perdan is now nothing more than the shadow of its former self. It now only owns the city of Aix and only a few nobles still call themselves Perdanese. Even her king has turned his back on her. Only the time will tell what will become of the remaining ashes of Perdan.
At one point in Perdan's history there was an attempt to draft a Constitution for Perdan. A vote amongst the nobility during the reign of King Nightmare eventually decided to abandon the "Constitutional" idea, and invest full power in the King of Perdan. It is kept here for historical and reference purposes.
Geography

Politics
Perdan is a feudal elective monarchy. Each region is cared for by a member of upper nobility, i.e. a Duke or an Earl, with estates in that territory parceled out to the lesser nobility comprised of Knights. The administration of the Kingdom is done under the authority of the monarch, with members of the Realm Council authorized to issue edicts or orders in the name of the King within their area of expertise. By tradition, the Imperator is charged with taking the reigns of the Kingdom in case the monarch is incapacitated.
The Military
Led by an elected general from the noble class, the Imperatrix, Perdan's military is one of the strongest and most effective on the East Continent. Steeped in past glories, the knights of Perdan remember well their greatness and aspire to carry on its legacy.
While Perdan has had a great history of military campaigns, many if not all scriptures have been lost. Only since half way through a new great war on the East Continent, sparked by the destruction of First Oligarch and Greater Xavax, have Perdanese historians begun keeping official records: - Records of the Great War against the aggression of the North

Historical Forces
Perdan's Royal Lions
Formerly: Perdan's Striking Force
This army was the heart of Perdan's military force and was the foundation stone for many campaigns. The other elite armies worked as satellites to the PRL, aiding them and providing additional capability for larger battles.
Perdan's Crimson Wing
Originally the PCW was a force for recruits and fresh nobles but over time it has grown in notoriety to be seen as a more dedicated army. In its later years, fresh recruits were put straight into the PRL while more experienced nobles who move their troops on time and fight with valour were promoted to the PCW.
Perdan's Murderous Wrath
The PMW was known for their quick strikes capacity. The army contained the most dedicated, most battle-hardened of all of Perdan's forces. They once stormed the city of Sirion without aid from any other realm or army.
Perdan's Home Defense
Perdan's Home Defense was originally created army designed for the removal of monsters, undead and rogue troops in times of peace or war. The PHD was intended to be an opportunity for those who want to benefit the realm but perhaps did not want to participate directly in the large scale battles. Some in the Perdanian nobility saw this unit as hugely valued to national defense, as troubles at home could have been a serious diversion to the main armies of Perdan without the PHD.
Perdan's Lethal Panthers
The PLP is comprised of the infiltrators of Perdan. Orders and hits are coordinated by the Sponsor and the assassins of Perdan are given as much support as possible in all stages of their dangerous undercover work.
