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 a long war with it's cousin - Outer Tilog. Giblot isn't all conflict and killing 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.

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

The Giblot Tribune battled bravely against the Gazette for a time, riding high upon a moral backlash against the Gazettes usual reporting. Needless to say though, the Gazette found some way to box up the editor and ship him to another continent. It was only a matter of time...

Entertainment

After a sad period were the Giblot peasantry seemed to enjoy taking vows of abstinence against alcohol this trend has now thankfully abated, 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 Tilogian.

Sports

Traditionally, Giblot has not been much of a sporting realm. All that changed however, upon the discovery of Headball! This quickly became 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 the Sport and ensure that there are always enough heads to go round! Sadly, in recent months the appreciation of the sport has fallen to an all time low. Thankfully the peasants remain as in love with Headball as ever.

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!

General Information

Giblot isn't just Taverns and Newspapers, War and MGRHA. Giblot has a full and rich history as well as a wide variety of different thinking peoples within our very own borders! Read on to learn more of what us folk in Giblot are truly like....
