Tol Goldora
Tol Goldora is primarily both a Trading and Raiding Nation. It's capital is the wealthy Golden Farrow, which acts as a central trade node between the East and West of Dwilight, and acts as an excellent Port City for her allied forces to anchor when travelling the Seas. Furthermore, Golden Farrow allows for Tol Goldoran raiding forces to hit many rogue-controlled Regions all around Dwilight.
Tyrannical by definition rather than inherent nature, the decision to consolidate power around the upper echelons of Tol Goldoran society was agreed upon by the Founding Families upon it's creation and secession from Sol - this was because Tol Goldora had no intention of extending beyond what was originally the De Jure Duchy of Golden Farrow of Old Caerwyn, and therefore an Imperial system would be unsuitable for such a small demesne. The Navarch is the absolute Ruler, with a final say on all and any diplomatic, militaristic or legal decisions when it comes to the stewardship of the realm, but the Navarch may appoint Nobles to perform duties in his stead - the Stratarch was traditionally responsible for Military matters, the Vestarch was responsible for matters of law and governance, with the Sakellion holding the responsibility of Steward to the realm.
A large portion of Tol Goldoran culture derives from Old Caerwynian culture that survived the destruction of the once Great Nation - although Tol Goldora does not claim to be any form of successor, many old naming and cultural traditions were adopted by the ruling caste during the integration of Eastern Colonists and the Western Inhabitants. For example, the old title of 'Archon', once rulers of Caerwyn, was partially adopted into the Tol Goldoran title of Navarch - and many ruling practices of Old Caerwyn were integrated in the ruling system also.
History
Tol Goldora was created by a secession from Sol, two weeks after Eastern colonists took Golden Farrow in the Year 46, Winter (November 2018). It was founded on the backs of the Six Nobles from the Eastern Dwilight, known as the Founders, who would later go on to play important roles in the development of the small, fledgling Nation.
In the early days of Spring, Year 47, Westgard
The Founders and the Founders Hall
The Founders Hall is a hugely prestigious and respected Guild and "club" of Tol Goldora, both protected by law and by tradition. Anyone who can prove close (and Noble) blood relation to the Founding Houses of Tol Goldora are permitted and granted entrance to the Hall by virtue of the ruling Navarch. Members of the Hall are therefore given preferential treatment for positions of power or titles within the realm, such as Elder positions in the Gylded Bank, available Lordships etcetera.
The Founding Families themselves also have considerable influence over many aspects of Tol Goldoran politics.
