History:

With the Iskariin empire crumbling around them the soldiers meant to guard the roads and towns were recalled to defend the cities, people outside of them took care of themselves any way they could.

Bandits, vigilantes, and rebellions grew rampant causing trade to dwindle, many crumbling cities fell into chaos within a year.

In the city of Skilan, the driggit known as Matches realized that for his city to survive that he needed to prepare while the loose ties of the Iskariin gov't were still protecting them from outright anarchy.

After he gathered the people of the city he spoke. "My people of Skilan, I stand before you as but one man claiming treason, I ask of you not to think of me as your driggit at this moment, but I ask that you listen for yourself so that you can make your own decision."

For many hours he spoke, with record keepers writing down every word, of economy and governance, the greater politics of Iskar, even on the world's true opinions of the empire, (Empire, a word that used to be shouted with pride now brought horror.) he then spoke of the future, of the needs of a city and how to procure them. He explained that they could handle all of these needs, that they could cut themselves from the gasping giant being crushed under its own weight.

After many hours of deliberation within a torchlit square, the people agreed to join the driggit, but they demanded that as he was the one asking for them to commit treason, that they would lead with him taking a mentorship role for the new leaders.

After two days of negotiations, it was agreed that the driggit would become a master to apprentice hereditary position that guided the rulers of Skilan.

Nowadays the driggit is still a highly coveted profession, it is a great honor for one to be picked from their lives to become the next Driggit.

Shockingly enough by the time Skilan was ready defensively to announce its sovereignty the capital city of Envela erupted into rebellion, with the sick citizens climbing over the fortified palace the guards fled through emergency passage after killing the Drigg who demanded they stay.

Governing system:

Each city has a prince/princess residing over it ensuring their territory's security. While the three princes/princesses of Skilan would be crowned as rulers overall.
