| + | ====Magocracy of Gariland==== | ||
| + | The city of Gariland is home to the finest academies of war, magic and classical education in Gallione; it is also a powerful city-state nearly fully autonomous from the rest of Gallione. The magocracy which rules the city has been increasingly individualist of late, especially given the growing following of St. Iocus among the Church elite. The leading Archmage, Norca Zantaire, has lent public support to Cardinal Thiere, whose stance on magic is the most liberal of the three leaders of Glabados. | ||
