The Democracy of Giblot is a Realm situated in the North Eastern Corner of the Colonies. At Giblot's present extent, it borders the realms of the Assassins Guild, Outer Tilog and Wetham. Giblot is currently embroiled in war with Outer Tilog and former friend, Lukon. All down to the small matter of a dead Tilogian Chancellor and a little revolution here and there!
Giblot isn't all war and revolution however! Giblot is also well known for it's love of Headball, the passion of it's inhabitants and the high values it places on Honour and Nobility. Maj. Gen. R. H. Anderson has also been here so long that he has practically become an institution of Giblot. Quite what he does however, is anyones guess!
Culture and Society
Journalism
Here in Giblot we adore our Journalists and their dedicated reporting across Giblot's vast frontiers. It keeps everyone in the know with the latest happenings from across the realm. Newspapers have a large influence in Giblot, with more than one civil servant's career ruined by gatecrashing reporters. The most popular of Giblot's news publications is The Giblot Gestapo Gazette which has a reputation for its unique reporting and its bloodthirsty nature
However, The Giblot Tribune, is slowly clawing its way up to the top, riding high upon the moral backlash against the Gazette. Needless to say, the Gazette has already declared a vendetta against the softies at the Tribune.
Entertainment
After a sad period were the Giblot peasantry seemed to dislike alcohol this trend has now, thankfully abated and thus Giblot's biggest taverns and clubs are now officially back in business! It is widely believed that Giblot could not function without out its nightlife, when all the gossip, and indeed, a substantial part of Giblot's coinage ends up changing hands. The most popular place to find one of the valiant troopleaders of Giblot nowadays is in a recently renamed tavern, The Headless OT.
Sports
Traditionally, Giblot has not been much of a sporting realm. All that changed however, upon the discovery of Headball! This has now become a national phenomenon and a favourite sporting event amongst the Giblot nobility and indeed the ordinary citizenry for that matter. The Giblot Headball League has since been setup to regulate this fast growing Sport and ensure that there are always enough heads to go round!
Government
Giblot's style of government these days is that of Democracy. Giblot is no longer governed by the will of the few as was the case in the republic, but is now governed by the will of many. Although Democracy allows for a bit more shouting and balling from time to time, with time and practice it has become easy to conduct clean and uneventful elections month after month!
