The Free Duchies

The Free Duchies are a set of self governing territories of the south free from the grasp of a greater throne overlooking them. During The Schism, due to weak leadership and unpopular policies of the Regellen kingdom, the powerful Grand Knights of Regelle who were appointed by the king to oversee regions of his kingdom overthrew him and claimed independence, each signing the Free Duchy Pact, turning the region into a set of Grand Duchies ruled by the Grand Knights and their descendants. The Grand Duchies of the former Regellen lands and their counties include:
 * Auvurn
 * Theravagne
 * Reynerre
 * Nuevanne
 * Tatzelgard
 * Linmurq
 * Juridéry
 * Toujours
 * Layden
 * Maravant
 * Valais
 * Usilan
 * Tailleferne
