Kathos, more officially known as The Serene Commonwealth of Kathos is an area in the Holocene under curation of Sounas and Doublenum. It's coordinates, location, lore, travel points and other details and/or information are yet to be set in stone. It will be located between Quair, The Republic of Thysus and the Federation of Ithea. The loose bond between the peoples and/or settlements in this area will provide for varied building themes. Emphasis will most likely be put on Ancient and Early modern styles with room for artistic license once permission is given.

The realm of Kathos

Geography

Kathos is geographically situated in the Northwest of the Holocene. It is bordered by Quair in the north, Ithea in the Southeast and Thysus in the Southwest. Barbarian kingdoms and tribes are situated to the east, kept at bay by Qemeti forces. The heartland of Qemet is situated around the great bay of the south, with allied kingdoms to the north and west in the realm

Form of government

Contrary to other places in the Holocene, Kathos lacks an unified government. Fearing the strong neighbours of Ithea and Thysus, the politically fragmented region of Kathos sought safety under a common alliance. Led by the theocratic state of Qemet, the states of Kathos remain in a precarious situation because of their central position and distrust of each other.

International relations

Although not aggressive in general, the realm of Kathos retains a deep distrust of foreign powers, Thysus and Ithea in particular. This has not been helped by the rampant piracy in Ithea-Thysus border strait, opportunistically ignored by respective powers. As a result, the kingdoms of Kathos have agreed on a naval program to strengthen its forces to allow international and neutral visitors to visit the realm of Kathos.

Building in Kathos

Styles

Kathos is open for varied building styles, however ancient and/or early modern is preferred. Kathos isn't the place for either full Modern or European medieval in most circumstances. Artistic license is allowed. Your greek settlement had steampowered engines? Great, you may build so if you can blend the two styles together well. Space travel in 18th century Spain? No problem, just make the vessel fit in and the lore fit in.
