Government
Ndango has, for as long as anyone can remember, or any history tells, been ruled by a king selected from among the most powerful clans in the city. The king is typically chosen after the death of the previous one by a Clanmoot, which occurs after an official two month period of mourning. The Clanmoot consists of a series of debates, tournaments of arms, and displays of crafting and stonecunning. Bribery and backroom dealings are frowned upon, but are nonetheless fairly common. If they are discovered, however, they can destroy an entire clan's credibility, and render them unofficially ineligible for a kingship for generations.
