GERSHON HIGH COUNCIL (ger-shon)

Written by Jdebro

The Gershon High Council is the governing body of the Gershonites, serving as the high authority of the Jorai people. Convening in the Tower Of Councilors, the High Council forms the laws, enforces Gershon law & order, settles disputes among Gershonite lands and representing Gershon to other nations.
The Gershon High Council is an committee composed of representatives from each of the four tribes of the Gershonites. Their decisions carry a great deal of weight throughout Gershonite lands. They adhere to no single mortal ruler, instead sharing power in a system of power separation. This is done to make it very difficult for one or a small group to abuse their power.

Foreign Relations

The Gershon High Council acts as the official governing body that engages in talks with other national leaders, either doing so themselves or sending ambassadors on their behalf. Due to the reputation of the Gershon in Lavantia, the leaders of the other nations make it a point of keeping relations with Gershon intact.
