Sillon

Summary
Sillon is the second largest kingdom in Ilyne. It was founded in 879 AE when Baron Rorque united the 5 baronies under him. It has since grown to be one of the two major powers of Ilyne. It has long been the enemy of Dranlin ever since it repealed the Dranlin founding invasion in 1570 AE. Without Sillion, the sorcerers of Dranlin likely would have conquered all of Ilyne. For a long time, there was no defined western border and Sillon often exerted it's power in the Faerun. Ever since the end of the Realm War, the border has been defined and the Faerun is largely anarchy. It is also home to the Royal Mages College,

Government
In its early days, Sillon was a traditional monarchy. The Rorque dynasty ruled for 4 centuries. The Llonik dynasty followed for another two.

It was then that Sillon became a constitutional monarchy. The king serves until death. After that, the Estato Gena elects an eligible member of one of the 5 noble houses (the former baronies) to be the next king in an emergency meeting. The election is held in a number of rounds equal to the number of candidates running and is done within one tenday.

The Estato Gena is akin to the French Estates General. Every village gets 3 representatives, cities get 10, and noble houses get 5. It meets 4 times a year for one tenday. It has the power to pass laws like the king and can depose the king or appoint a regent if necessary.

The current king is King Matias. He is generally a popular ruler. His subjects enjoy most of the freedoms of a modern country. The capital is Cansota.
