Intentions of your government: Unify our island, Zoko-Niskrenok.
The league was initially formed through the ambitions of the diplomatically minded Zeymahzinmaar tribe, unifying with the Tiidahmaan and Tertahlon tribes. The Zeymahzinmaars are known for their shrewd diplomacy, in contrast to the philosophical Tiidahmaans and the militant Tertahlons. These three provinces are ruled by high chiefs whose heirs are their choice (and their choice is almost always their seed). However, regional chieftans have the duty of electing a new Grand Imperator when the existing one dies. The candidates are the high chiefs, even if a high chief's duty is under a regent's control due to age, lack thereof, or illness.

Currency: No widely standardized currency. Metal bullion (predominantly electrum) has historically been used as a price measurement tool, and is the nation's closest thing to a real currency.
Military:8,000 strong, the military is solely of Tertahlon origin, as the province takes pride in the protection of the league. The two other provinces have comparatively little interest in a standing military. However, all three provinces agree that in the scenario of foreign invasion, every man, regardless of province, should take up arms.
6,000 heavy infantry - Tight formations, long pikes, large shields.
2,000 light infantry - Bows, spears, sandals.
Religion and History: Animism, however the Dov is the supreme animal. The reason there are no Dovah present on the planet is because they departed long ago. The dots of the night sky are the rifts they left through; the great source of light is also a rift created by them. It is their apology for leaving; it is the gift of life force. Such a rift would destabilize the realm, and so the Dovah created the moon as a balance.
Ancient tablets and word walls tell the poetic parable of
why the Dovah left. The Dovah were benevolent rulers for the time they spent on the mortal plane, but they eventually grew decadent. A particularly powerful Dov,
, subverted the rationality of his kin. The fair Dov rule became a tyrannical regime, where even a household's number of children was strictly controlled. Every family could only have a single child, as
feared that the humans would otherwise one day grow so populous that they could easily overthrow the Dov. However, even in the face of being hopelessly outmatched, mankind revolted. They took up what few arms they had, and fought valiantly against their superior oppressors. It was immediately obvious that this would be the largest war known to the world, and so the many tribes of Niskrenok chose to unite as a supreme confederation - the First League. This great league spanned across all of Niskrenok, indeed, but it lacked industry and it was too decentralized to organize a sole, supreme army.
Some Dovah, however, began to feel remorse. At the start of this war, the Dovah saw Man as an inferior race. A tool to be used, and nothing more. A collective of simpler life. Yet it was now that these Dovah were being proven wrong. Man had united, choosing to fight for their freedom or to leave the world as fallen heroes. One particular Dov,
, bestowed his seed unto a maiden of Man. Thus birthed was a child of Man, indeed, yet too was he heir to the blood of a Dov; the Dovahkiin was born. With the inherent knowledge and resistance of the Dovah, he led the First League in a great crusade against
's Dovah, though guided silently by his ancestors -
's Dovah.
And so, the tyranny was no more. Yet man kind, being mortal, lacked the ability to simply forgive such atrocities such as those committed by the Dovah. The Dovahkiin himself held little remorse in his heart when he commanded the Dovah to perform an exodus from Niskrenok. The Dovah understood this, and felt their wings hanging low when they initially attempted to settle lands far from Niskrenok. Their distance from Man began to slowly dissipate the life force of both Man and Dovah, for it is the aura of Dovah that sustains mortality's existence, but it is the unique will of mortality that binds the Dovah to their bodies, as the Dovah do not originate from the mortal realm, but the realm above it - the immortal expanse. A dimension incomprehensible for any mortal being, it is the source of all creation, creators, destruction, and destructors. The complicity of Man was once held by these facts, in the era of fair Dovah, and it now threatened these most unfortunate veterans. The Dovahkiin, gifted with the knowledge of a Dov, knew that the Dovah could manipulate the immortal expanse at great effort. He devised a daring, yet desperate plan to solve the issue of segregation, without unification. Man led a second war against the exiled Dovah, forcing them to withdraw from the mortal realm. In their time of isolation, the Dovah had thoroughly thought over past events, and judged that Man was just in this second war. They fled after a few skirmishes, finally leaving the realm forever. By the terms of the Dovahkiin, and by their own guilt, they created their final gift to humanity. The sun now acts as the source of mortality, just as the Dovah did long ago.
It was by the kindred acts of these departing Dovah that Man learned to forgive. The Dovahkiin's final words were that Man must forgive Dovah, and resume the worship of a time before tyranny. Not as subjects, but as those who can forgive humbled divinity. Resuming worship ensures that the Dovah do not forget the syncretic power of Man, as they now had the blood of the Dovah deep within. The Dovahkiin's soul departed with his legacy leaving the first League to be divided amongst his 12 heirs. As a result, the League peacefully shattered. From these successor states, war, unification, and further fragmentation all took place many times over. In that period, the Dovahkiin's blood had time to spread throughout all of the inhabitants of Niskrenok. the Men of Niskrenok thus do not see themselves as another part of mortal Man, but a unique form of life unlike both mortals and immortals. It is unknown how much of this history is known by the other tribes of Niskrenok, but it is very well known to the elders and rulers of the second League - the Grand League. This is why it is their ambition to one day reunify Niskrenok; to restore the glory, prosperity, prestige, and unity that the first League had experienced after the Dovah had been expelled.
