P'Bapar Part 3: Baparan Government and Military
Since establishing independence from the Kalamaran Empire¸ P'Bapar has been a monarchy ruled by an Archduke. The current Archduke is E'Dos Kalanasi II¸ who aggressively rules his city while preventing representatives from the Golden Alliance¸ independent guilds¸ ambitious wizards¸ and powerful priests from outworking and outwitting him.
E'Dos favors government ruled by an elite cadre and his administration is few in number. His advisors consist of several hand-picked representatives and a small council who double as administrators for some of the more essential functions of the city. This enables each
individual to wield a great deal of authority and responsibility. The Archduke readily redistributes duties if a burden proves too great for one person. Beneath the Archduke is a caste system of titled ladies and noblemen who possess less authority¸ but govern various aspects of the city-state in the archduke's name.
