| - | Just northeast of Vervand, past the Crideann Mountains, is the land of Arenti, known far and wide for its art and culture.

| - | For the past millennium, Arenti has been ruled by the People’s Republic of Arenti. It is a type of representative democracy: specifically a parliamentary republic. Each of the country’s major regions serve as larger districts. These large districts are divided into smaller districts for a few distinct purposes. Members of the parliament are chosen to represent each smaller district. These elections happen every five years. As of late, the judicial system has seized far more power than before, with the **Iudex** (or High Judge) being the national leader. | + | For the past millennium, Arenti has been ruled by the People’s Republic of Arenti.

| - | The people of Arenti have no love for rulers. After a long and varied history of absolute rulers, from monarchs to dictators, Arenti’s people have sworn to uphold liberty, democracy, and to constantly be critical of those in power. If a leader does not actively work to fulfill their promises, it is unlikely that they will be re-elected. | + | The people of Arenti have no love for rulers.

| Arenti’s citizenry are not just critical of their own government, but of the rest of Cahyali’s countries. Pthora and Ley’Ork are considered by most citizens to be backwards locations that toss away justice and liberty.
