Barizhan

Barizhan, to the south of the Ethuveraz, is a country mainly inhabited by Goblins. It is ruled over by the Great Avar, Maru'var Sevraseched.

Government
The Great Avar is an absolute monarch, though he has a group of advisors called the Avrasin. Being an Avar is a hereditary position, and after a Great Avar dies, they elect a new Great Avar from within their number.

Culture
Barizheise culture heavily centers around the family. The Barizheise live in an arrangement called a Dav, wherein all members are considered to be part of the same family, including the servants, and it is often true in any regard, as they do not take quite as dim a view of illegitimate children as their neighbors to the north.

Religion
The Barizheise worship the same gods as the Ethuverazhin, but they do have a few additional gods, mostly those dealing with the sea and sailing. Barizheise religious devotions tend more towards the contemplative, with meditation and candle-lighting being the preferred methods.
