BLO | Republic of Kirth
The Republic of Kirth is a wealthy and technologically advanced nation that lies to the west of the Kingdom, across The Ghost Sea. They have invented firearms, and have a rich source of saltpeter to mine from which they stubbornly refuse to export. As such, they wield great power despite their relatively small size, as all their ships are armed with cannons and their soldiers wield muskets.
Around 200 years ago Kirth deposed its King in an exceptionally bloody revolution. Most of the Royal Family were slaughtered, and the surviving royals fled across The Ghost Sea to hide in the Kingdom. Now Kirth is governed by a Senate of some 300 members, voted for by districts of the country, who elect from amongst their number a Grand Pensionary who will rule for five years.
In Kirth, only landowners are eligible to be elected to the Senate. The current Grand Pensionary is Madame Vint, a formidable woman in her early 40s with a determination to extend Kirth’s influence across The Ghost Sea.
The climate of Kirth is temperate, with frequent rains and heavy fog.
