Description
Composed of several territories that arrived on Elmfax, from year 6 1.E onward. Each territory is a small colony of a large empire on another continent.

The Riffen Dynasty is the largest family in the Confederacy, and they coerced the Dournes, the Grayys, the Athos, and the Muirs to sign a confederate pact with them, for mutual protection, and free trade but sovereign governance.

The landscape is forested, and hilly, not suitable for large scale farming.

Each family has an export of their own. The Riffens produce Iron and coal, and hefty Basalt bricks from their mines in RiffenCavin, and TrianPeak. The Dournes produce fish from their aquaculture, and fleet of fishing ships. The Grayys produce Gneiss and pitch. The Muirs are accomplished weavers, and their wools are known around Elmfax. The Muirs also run a forestry operation.

Farms in the Confederacy create inadequate amounts of food for their cities, so they must import wheat, barley, potatoes, carrots, and other greens.

Leaders include Regent Darius Damase of Riffen, Lord Adam Duke of Dourne, Lady Arrin of Muir, Commander Keyes of Havinson, Lord Basque Grayys of WestEdge and EastEdge and Marko Athos of Athoport.

The Cavin military is made up of knights from the families of each town, and levies. Their tactics are multi-armed, including light cavalry, walls of pikemen, and ranks of archers and artillery.

Cavinites, usually build for defense, on only the tallest peaks, and sheerest cliffs in their area.
