Also: The Kingdom of Guilderhoek, Court of the Goldenhook.

A small border province at some time or other claimed by Campara, Daroon and Jagan.

The Camparan line of Gildenhoch, is a small, underappreciated noble line (that claims royalty). They now own and judge the area, but have lost almost all other sources of income or power.

The Daroon Guilderhoeks, on the other hand, abandoned their ancient claims to the land, and have turned to, and excelled in, trade. They now own most of the land and control the trade in the area.

The Jagan Goldenhook court, lastly, has the strongest claim to the area, according to their own arcane laws. They formed a resistance to the "invaders" a long time ago, but most lapsed into brigandry and disinterest. The only thing that remains are the seelie courts of the Gold talons that eternally battle the humans, and themselves.

Gildenhoch

 * Have justicial domain over the kingdom.
 * Have about three quarters of the ancestral lands under their control, but no cities.
 * Have a very corrupt tax collector network.
 * Have an even worse outrider corps.
 * Also have a very small standing knight order.
