Auxillayre is one of the nations of Savukk. It occupies much of the Eastern half of the western continent.
General Information
Auxillayre is not a nation, so to speak, but rather a collection of tribes that have been united under one ruler, the Auxillyth. Before the Auxilairan came, several other tribes already conquered much of the land, unifying it to a certain extent. The major groups are the Ectavyn, the Termon, and the Dendronaea. Of these, the Ectavyn are the greatest. It is unknown when the Auxillairan conquered the tropical tribes, but it must of been very long ango, as no one seems to remember a time without them.
Auxillayre is tropical and subtropical, and covered with lush forests. Many rivers flow through the land, bringing glacial water from the mountains down, and into the sea. It rains frequently. Nobody has ever seen the snow. There is however, a drier season, although the land still is very moist.
Auxillayre is rather advanced and specializes in glass. They make exquisite pieces of art in honor of their gods. Glass, in combination with wood, is used to make giant temples as well. They Auxillairan also are masters of woodworking. Metal, on the other hand, is scarce, and rarely used. Porcelain is occasionally used.
Government
Auxillayre is a monarchy. The next ruler is determined by "how royal" they are. That is determined by counting the prospective heir'r relatives that are in the royal family. Typically, the eldest son inherits the throne, as long as his wife has many relatives. Although the power is passed father son, connections to the royal family are inherited maternally and through marriage. For example, a father has 10 relatives and marries a woman with 20. The man now has 30, as long as no relatives are repeats. If the father has a son, the son will have 10 relatives, but this only matters if he marries someone of royal descent. A daughter will inherit all the relatives.
