The Confederacy of City States

Often called simply The Confederacy, the C.C.S. is more of an agreement between several city states than a singular country. Each of these city states are distinct from each other, although some general beliefs and practices still hold.

Folklore
When the lord of the city state of Ascor was kidnapped, John Smith set out to exact revenge. Taking his magic auto-crossbow with him, he infiltrated the castle where his lord was being held prisoner. After killing over twenty guards Smith freed his lord. He then used a magic potion to blow a hole in the castle wall, and escaped on horseback. When the opposing lord chased after them, Smith took him down with a single well placed crossbow bolt. In the aftermath Ascor was able to overtake the opposing lords lands, strengthening their position all thanks to one man.
