[Hider=The Federated States of Kawachi *Teaser*]

The Federated States of Kawachi are a maritime focused people, relying on their naval prowess, predominantly in ship construction, architecture, military ships, and trade ships, that are eagerly sought out by neighbor realms. The massive shipyards dominate the Northern coastline of the main island of Federal Kawachi, creating the seagoing, and river plying vessels of not only their own region, but those of the rest of the Empire. With a heavy focus on the sea, it is of note that in the past, The Federated States have no known cavalry forces to their name, along with being almost bereft of heavily armed and armored infantry units either. Though, to the High Count of Kawachi, Ryan Swiftwave, the sea always provides a intimidating barrier against would be instigators and invaders. *WIP*

The Name "Federated States" strikes me as quite modern-sounding; it doesn't fit in the medieval setting to my ear. Maybe something like the Kawachi Confedaracy/Kawachi Dominion to spruce up the name but achieve a more historical-sounding name. Just my opinion, though.
