## Government

Power is centered on Konung who serves as the Head of state and Overseer of the Kronting. The Konung drives the direction of the realm and is informed by the Kronting who advises the Monarch and institutes policy at their command. Members are appointed to their position by the Monarch ; theoretically they can be dismissed at will by the monarch, however in practice this might lead to undesirable political fallout. The rest of the population serve as citizens, the backbone of the realm.

### **Kronting**

The Kronting act largely as advisors to the mayor. They may also make decisions and be responsible for certain aspects of the kingdom’s governance depending on the position. Members of the Kronting are appointed and dismissed by the monarch, in theory as the monarch wills. In practice, of course, appointments or dismissals may have undesired political consequences which the monarch must consider.

There is no limit on how long someone can hold a certain position. However, one position can only be held at once. If a position cannot be filled, the responsibilities fall to the king.

The monarch serves as the head of the council and takes note of its recommendations, but only the monarch can make the council's decisions into law. The **Hand of the King** is the leading advisor on the Kronting and serves as the monarch's proxy when they are not present, in which case the Hand chairs the meeting.

The Kronting meets in the capital city of Porta Fiume in the **Hall of Reason** (Council Building).

The **Kronting** is a small group of advisers who aid the monarch on matters of policy and their areas of expertise.

Below the Monarch, is the advisory body of the Council of Lords. The Council of Lords traditionally consists of seven permanent members, after the Masgar  traditions and the Jotrtrú faith It has reserved positions for:

* **Hand of the King:** the chief advisor of the King, the second-most powerful person in the Realm. leads the council and takes policy decisions to the King for approval.
* **Court Seiyðr**, a religious leader who advises the king on any matter concerning prophetic dreams and diplomatic decisions.
* **High-Steward,** head of the treasury and finances of the kingdom
* **Grand justicar**, an expert in the laws of the realm
* **Crown Marshal,** commander of the royal armed forces
* **Master of whisperers,** the spymaster and gatherer of information
* **Court Chanselor:**  manages the diplomatic ties and foriegn policy of the kingdom.

## History

### Carvaian Statehood as Fruila | Late 2020 - November 4th (2021)

Trollgard's history began with the creation of the city of Porta Fiume, now called Kronborg, by Savii LostCoastlines and a group of carvaian colonists. In this period of time the main focus was the expansion of the city, a true wonder for its time, while the struggle to keep the demographic situation stable was one of the main concerns of the governors of the region. Just before the shattering of Carvay the state, renamed to Vrolgar, was merged with Dracade by the central government in hopes of solving once and for all the aforementioned demographic issue.

### Sublime Kingdom of Trollgard | November 4th

After the worries of a coup in Carvay had come to an all-time high, it was decided that it was best to dissolve the government. After this, Trollgard declared itself the Sublime Kingdom of Vrolgar under the leadership of Konung Myrknir Kronborg

### Vrolgar Protectorate under the Blessed Diarchy of Knossos | December 10th (2021)

As a direct result of Huitca aggression, due to a mistake made with one of her vassals, Trollgard became a protectorate under the Blessed Diarchy of Knossos in order to be closer to her greatest ally.

### Formation of the United Kingdom of Dracade-Trollgard

The first union between Dracade and Trollgard was created on the 26th of june 2022 between **King Myrknir  “Masgarfostre” Skrælung af Kronborg** and **Dragone Raziel Martellus**. This era saw the rise of a nationalist movement in Trollgard for increased reprecentation in government and equal treatment. Initially as a just a dream, the plan began to be taken more seriously by the Delegati, as the Dragonate and Kingdom of Trollgard began to work together towards a better representation of the people of Trollgard in the government. Finally, on the 2nd of November, the Dragonate of Dracade ended as Big Boss announced the reorgnization of the Dragonate into a kingdom, namely the United Kingdom of Dracade-Trollgard.
