While it is true that few in Dalmutia are poor and prosperity abounds, political stability is not one of Dalmutia s strong points. Few people understand the rulers of Dalmutia. What is the difference between a Dynasty and a regular transfer of power. Why does royalty age differently. The mystery of the court intrigues many but the secrets aren t really secrets at all.
Ignorance is the greatest cause of question.
The Houses in Dalmutia shift endlessly. Great Dalmuti s find that they cannot long hold power and so have to give up their position to another house. This is done begrudgingly, but it does prevent bloodshed. The ruler who steps down is always head of his or her house and often becomes an advisor the next Great Dalmuti of that house. Many die shortly after.
