Ordos

Ordos is the central and largest nation. As such it always has enemies of some sort on all sides. Despite this, it gained a reputation as a highly expansionist country though the last century and a half without any expansion has done something to quiet that reputation. While it shares a border to the north with Avardine, there is a stone wall that seperates the two nations at everything but a few major roads. The wall initially was a joint venture, Avardine wanting to stop Ordos invasions and Ordos wanting to stop the influx of mindless undead. Thirty years ago a treaty was signed and since then the troops on the walls have been dismissed.

The day to day running of Ordos is handled by a democractic congress of elected representatives from each town and city. The royal family has the ability to override on all matters and technically controls the country, but in the last few centuries they have allowed more and more power to rest in the people's hands, though they adamantly hold the final say on all matters of importance as well as the final say in regards to major positions of power. Towns and cities are run by a major with a city council underneath. A mayor who refuses to listen to his citizens is often subject to a "Ordos Impeachment", that is being pulled from the city hall and hung to force a new election.
