Republic of Ethrogia

The Republic of Ethrogia is a sovereign state that is established in 718 following the fall of the Kingdom of Ethrogia. It encompasses the Ethrogia Mountains, Frion Valley, Aalicar, Fafnir Island, and Prometheus. The national emblem is very similar to that of the Kingdom of Ethrogia.

Government
The state is governed by a Senate under the head of state. The Senate convenes in the Northern Palace. It is a unicameral legislature of 9 members elected by popular vote. Speakers of the Senate hold their office for life unless they retire or are impeached.

Each of the five territories under the Republic also has its own governor.

Demographics
The upper class of Ethrogia is largely made up of White Elves residing on Mt. Selene, while the working class population in Endymion Valley is primarily human. The island of Regin is populated by dwarfs.

Economy
Lower class occupations are typically family businesses. Major exports include marble and wine.

Education
Education is compulsory for children ages 5 to 16. A large Gothic-style university is available for residents age 17 and older.
