SKENE (pronounced like Shayna)The gnomid carved the stone upon which the nation of Skene was born. Skene is one of the world's newest nations, having been born 60 years ago in the deepest part of the long winter, after a swift and bloody revolution. Skene's unique geography, separated from the other civilized nations on all sides by sea, have given it a unique seat of power as squabbles amongst the other nations tamp them down.
Low taxes, few regulations and copious vice attract all kinds to these lands of opportunity.
The Skenian military is the largest in the world and has essentially total superiority over the world's oceans and skies.
Elements of the former monarchy still exist within society, including several former royal families still quite irate about how their grandparents and great-grandparents were executed during the revolution.
Government: power is split between three heads of state. The commander of the military, Bennez Navarro, rules jointly with the Prime Minister, appointed from among county representatives. Lastly, the papacy is hugely influential, especially regarding foreign affairs.
