Ch'atay Qutu (CHA-tai KOO-too)
by hughpierre
Ch'atay Qutu was an experimental organization that based its governance around wealth-making principles by a quartet of young noble women.
Public Agenda
Establish a system that facilitates the circulation of distant goods in a manner similar to the later empire. The great promise involved enabling people to access their wealth from anywhere a branch could be found and make purchases over long distances without needing to leave their territory.
History
The idea behind Ch'atay Qutu was the child of Champ'a Uma's manipulations at the table of nations where some suspected of causing the crime spree during its final siege.
His wife took up his scheming after he died, but the practical founding and running was a result of the competency of the famous noble quartet who answered to her. They ended up taking the endeavour away from their brutal founder's reputation.

Political Absorption
For ten years, Ch'atay Qutu struggled to truely spread into the mountains but flourished in the separate river valleys. The connections it forged were useful for the expanding innoit when they subsumed Diu into the First Quadrant.Education
Educating the population and developing trust in the system proved to be a significant hurdle to its full adoption. The quartet were a radical group of youths, who for various circumstances, came to lead their mercantile-focused familes and spread their ideals throughout the Four Corners. They used Ch'atay Qutu to facilitate transactions, secure savings and act as a means to unify the economy around the mountain river.
