Houses of Dignity

An Overview of Fourteenth-Century BC Aristocracy

Houses of Dignity is a general guide to the aristocratic houses beginning in the mid-thirteenth century up until the early fifteenth century. Although the title specifies the aristocracy of the BC, the book includes several aveaan aristocratic houses as well that may be somehow involved with confederacy economics or politics.
While the book is a mostly accurate account, it does leave out many important details throughout history, such as illegal or immoral involvements, and is generally considered to reflect the current ideas within the confederacy. Houses involved in arcana or with arcanist members (i.e. House Marnise) are portrayed in a negative light, while several houses' affiliations with historical atrocities like The Purges are omitted or left vague. However, the book is still often a staple in diplomacy or government classes in the BC, and provides an easy approach to the intersection of aristocracy and government in the confederacy.
