Guaso

The country of Guaso is on the continent of Clondach in the world of Drawes. 
Guaso was founded in the year 49,262, which is known because it celebrates its 321 years old anniversary in Season 2019 (anniversary celebrated in Devil’s Cruller). Link to Present Day Year for each season. 
The world of Drawes, its continent of Clondach, and its country of Guaso is a fantasy world similar to our own but without electrical inventions. Instead, there is magic. 
Characters wear Renaissance style clothing. Guilds in this world are 
similar to the East India Trading Company or a union of mercenaries for hire: a group of adventurers who explore uncharted territory or complete jobs that are too dangerous for your average person to want to do. The 
Firebreathing Kittens guild in particular is located in Guaso’s port 
city of Niqamui, a bustling European style city that isn’t the largest 
port city around but which does have a lot of commerce and activity. 
Buildings in Niqamui tend to have thatched roofs and Tudor style 
architecture. While within the city limits, the guild members are subject to its laws.
Roads connect the four major cities, which were unified by marriage centuries ago. The founders wrote a
constitutional monarchy and a bill of rights, which entitles all
common-speaking creatures the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness unless tried by a jury of their peers. Laws are enforced within city
walls by the city guard. There is a criminal court but no civil court. Land
owners pay an annual tax which supports government investigation of violent
crime. There is no income tax or sales tax or voting. Public school for all is
paid for by the property tax on the nobles and free for commoners until age 10,
so most people can read, do simple math, and speak common. Ten percent of
marriages are interracial. Status: peace time, no draft. The port cities accept
a lot of immigrants, refugees from other places, who historically brought
magical automation technologies that freed up the populace from spending all
their time working to grow food. The economy is merchant, not feudal, fueled by
the port cities, roads, and river canals.
