Great Houses

The Great Houses are the most powerful of the noble houses of the Kingdom of Elysia. They exercise immense authority and power over their vassals and territories and are answerable only to the Elysian King.

Each Great House has a large number of vassal houses serving it, most of whom in turn have smaller vassals under them, extending all the way down to farmers and landed knights. Each Great House rules over its territory and is responsible for collecting taxes and, in times of war, raising troops to fight for the King. Otherwise they are largely left to operate autonomously to simplify the bureaucracy and governance of the realm.
