First place Sirion should again be to no surprise. This huge powerhouse has control of the most cities, a huge army, the most nobles and the most food/gold, what more could one want?
Second place is a always strong, and always to be feared on the field, Perdan. Having a strong showing crushing Ibladesh both in the field and in cities there was and is little this realm cannot get accomplished, backing their military is a great income.
Third place is Caligus who also had a good showing against Ibladesh, but seems to be having trouble expanding into their lands, a strong military with gold and food backing but perhaps a little lacking on the nobles needed.
Fourth place is Westmoor, backed with an always strong and prepared army, they boast two great cities for income along with a high food production.
Fifth place goes to the still growing Fontan, though they are not gaining regions, they are not losing them either and their military strength continues to rise and rise.
Sixth is the still quite new realm Nivemus as they continue to gain and lose the battered regions from the Sultanate reign, this new realm shows great potential especially once the peasants are brought under control.
Seventh place is taken up by Armonia, a strong new southern realm that is slowly and quietly building it's power and holdings around itself.
Eighth is reserved for Eponllyn, another strong realm in the south that seems to be having a bit of military problems and is reaching their limits for expansion, at least for the time being.
Ninth goes to Obsidian Islands, it is no surprise that this small, low income and militarily problematic realm struggles to gain ranks. With a low noble base to pull from it has made their expansion difficult to say the least.
Bringing up the rear, in tenth place, is Ibladesh, having lost cities to raiding, looting, succession...there is little left of this once almighty realm, holding the number one spot off and on for most (if not all) of last year. Other realms should keep this in mind, you may be one of the strongest now but it could happen to any of us.
