Ryarendean Free Territory
The Ryarendean Free Territory is a plutocratic oligarchy, run by a joint stock company. It is administered by the Merchant Council, which is formed of the nine largest shareholders of the joint stock company, the Ryarendean Merchant Company.
Their governance over the territory is de facto and has developed as the accepted status quo over generations.
