Palmtop Empire
The Palmtop Empire is a Confederal feudal elective mixed monarchy ruled by the Palmtop Emperor. He has sat on his throne since he united the fuiding Chiefdoms of the valley of many hands a millennia ago.
History
The legend goes that before the arrival of the Immortal Emperor, The valley of many hands was inhabited by dozens of small chiefdoms all fighting amongst one another for power. The Emperor arrived one day from lands far to the west over the mountains. In secret, he constructed a stronghold in the northern mountains and invited each of the waring chiefs to a great feast in their honor. Once there each chief and his complement was given a tunic bearing different hand symbols. The Emperor then challenged the chiefs to a series of martial and mental competitions. It was promised that the winner would receive a throne of dominion over all other chiefs. The Emperor easily bested the barbaric chiefs one after another, declaring himself Emperor then and there. Each Chief was instructed to keep their tunic as heraldry and serve under him from there forward. And thus the Palmtop Empire was formed out the chaos that was the Era of Strife.
