Tevinter

The Tevinter Imperium is the oldest extant human nation in Fulmenos  and is ruled by a powerful magocracy. The leaders of the Imperium are called magisters, and are led by the Imperial Archon.  In ancient times, the Imperium's power was unrivaled and its borders stretched across nearly the entire planet. In modern times, Tevinter is a shadow of its former self in both size and power, unable to expand to any nearby planets.

Culture

There are the mages, the land's nobility, completely obsessed with competing for supremacy with each other—almost to the exclusion of paying any heed to the nation's enemies. The well-bred altus sneer at the laetans, who in turn sneer at the praeteri. They vie for dominance in the Magisterium, where factions shift and flow on a daily basis with deadly consequences, requiring every family to put on a veneer of perfect citizenship or face scandal and censure. 
Then there are the so-called soporati, the "sleepers." These are the non-magical citizens who vastly outnumber the mages, yet are beholden to their whims. Many are resentful of this status, plotting in secret, even as they secretly hope their children will possess magical talent—an enticing lure, since the talent could conceivably show up in anyone, even a slave.
