Elven Confederacy

History
During the invasion the Elven empire of Ternum was destroyed, the great capital of White Harbour was destroyed and the imperial family was slaughtered in its entirety. This left the remaining forces of the Elves to fall back, losing battle after battle until it could assemble an army capable of competing with the Humans and Dwarves. They managed to survive to several fortunate circumstances. Firstly they managed to find a general who could lead his men well enough, Quintus Fabius Maximus, the Shield of Ternum. Fabius was famous because he decided turn the tables on the Humans and Dwarves, instead of fighting them in open combat he took to the mountains, holding the fertile basin behind the Thantos mountains, he used guerrilla warfare tactics to outmatch and outsmart his opponents, never engaging them in the open. His wise tactics were able to undermine the Human effort to pass through and instead forced them to the negotiating table and forming the Great Peace of 4-0. The peace led to the first time in 20 years that both sides were not in conflict. While the humans and dwarves fractured into 1000 petty kingdoms the Elves had a single great leader to rally behind. Fabius declared a great year of mourning for the loss of their empire before officially declaring an end to the Empire. Fabius was not a man who craved power, instead he merely wanted to save his people from total genocide. Fabius brought the many elven peoples together and drew his sword, plunging it into the ground, he declared that he would not raise this sword against another elf so long as he lived, this display of goodness led for the leader of the Drow, Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa to do likewise, just like that the Elven Confederacy was born.

Government
The Elven Confederacy functions as a confederation of independent territories within the EC, they have full autonomy within their lands, they only relinquish trade rights and peace and war. All local municipalities maintain their own standing armies and upon the declaration of war unite into a single army, under an elected general. The local municipalities elect members to a Confederate Assembly, who elect the president and a general in chief, who commands the army during war.

Factions
The Eleven Confederate Assembly generally has two factions, the Federalists (the Feds) and the Confederalists (the Cons). In general the Federalists are mostly drawn from the urban municipalities and want to centralise the government and expand west into the islands surrounding the EC, currently held by the Admiralty of Shi, whom the Elves see as having stolen their land. the Confederalists generally come from the rural municipalities and want to maintain the status quo and expand east, into the Disputed Lands and to try and create new Municipalities.
