Structure
History
Toldero is the oldest still-standing nation of the modern world, founded ≈5000 years ago. Toldero has kept its borders closed to outsiders up until around 1000 years ago when trade routes and diplomatic relations became necessary to maintain the survival of the nation.
Foreign Relations
The Tolderan Theocracy have negotiated a truce with the Yatenn people, and collaborate relatively little with other nations.

Architecture
Tolderan architecture is robust and rarely especially decorated. Made to look as if chiselled from one large piece of stone, the architecture in Toldero is seen by some as imposing and heartless, by others as grand and with a subtle beauty.

Clothing
Tolderan clothing is often made from one singular piece of cloth, wrapped in different styles.

Fashion
The Tolderan toga, a wrapped piece of textile, can be worn in many ways. If worn around the waist fastened by a belt, it can serve as a skirt that can be changed to wrap around the upper body for warmth. For those with Eldayr descent, it is essential to be able to modify one's clothing to ease flight. Those who prefer a more decorated look can have fringe or embroidered borders decorated with metal and small mirrors. Turbans and loose hoods are also common.Military
Military uniforms resemble day-to-day fashion, with belts and sashes to hold ranged weaponry. Headgear is either a curved metal helmet or turbans sporting the Tolderan colours.

Legislative Body
The legislative body consists of a bicameral parliament. Nomos for common law and Themos for divine law.
Judicial Body
The judicial rule differs in the provinces, but the capital Botrek has a court with judges divided between matters of divine law, and matters of common law.
Executive Body
The Seschenal is an appointed priest that leads the executive branch with guidance from oracles in contact with the pantheon of the Denary faith. They have the executive say on what goes on in the Theocracy as a nation, although the different regional leaders in the provinces enforce the will of the gods and govern the province as they see fit.
