[u]Government[/u] 
The kingdom of Kitsunia is ruled by King Ibn Al Kitsa. His family has been the sole providers of monarchs for the past 800 years. They base their right to rule by the claim that they are descendants of Kitsune and Kitsa, the first two Kitsune's who ever roamed the world. None the less, some voices say that the claim is false. Also the current king is notoriously uninterested in state affairs and prefers to throw decadent parties and indulge himself in the pleasures of life. 

The king is supported by the council of advisors, also known as the council of lords. All the advisors come from the important aristocratic families. It's an unwritten law that every position of the council of lords must be filled by a different noble family. Nearly all of the government tasks are performed by the Council of lords.

Aristocrats all govern a part of the country in the name of the king. Borders of their dominions can sometimes be unclear, especially for the lords of the nomadic tribes. This sometimes leads to internal tensions.

[u]Religion[/u]
Kitsune's are generally very spiritual people. They worship their ancestors with great pride. Those who've played a major role for their people became legendary spirits who's myths continues to be significant hundreds of years after when the events supposed to have taken place. Meditation is the main form to communicate with the spirits but Kitsune's often pay tributes to them on small shrines.

The clergy is mostly made up out of females. All important religious positions are female only. This has to do with the origin story known as the legend of Kitsune and Kitsa, the first two Kitsunes. Kitsune is concidered the mother of all Kitsune's and she's the person their entire race is named after.

[u]History[/u]
History and mythology go hand in hand in Kitsunian society. Especially when it comes to the origin story of their people. Kitsunian mythology states that 1000 years ago a human mage who roamed the desert felt lonely and used his magical abilities to make a companion out of a female desert fox (fennec). Out of the magical experiment by the mage came a creature that was a hybrid between human and desert fox. The fox would go by the name "Kitsune". After the successful experiment the mage decided to repeat it on a male fox and created "Kitsa". As the group traveled through the desert lands it didn't take long before interest between the three became more than just friendship. The mage started develop romantic feelings towards Kitsune but found them unanswered. When he found the love of his life in the arms of Kitsa the mage became filled with jealousy. On a dark night the mage could no longer contain his jealousy and rage and killed Kitsa in his sleep. When Kitsune found out who killed her lover, she had no other option then to condemn the human and avenge the fox she loved and who's child she was bearing. 

Hundred year later nomadic tribes of Kitsune started to advance on the human cities and settlements along the river that crossed the desert. Initially the Kitsune's looted the cities and sold the humans into slavery and then moved on to the next. Later on the Kitsunes started to take over the settlements and started to claim the cities for themselves. From the depts of the desert the tribes pushed on towards the coast, following the great river and enslaving or eradicating all humans on their path. Assimilating lifestyles, customs and culture of the humans in their own. At first the different tribes worked independently until one man managed to unite them under his rule and the kingdom of Kitsunia was formed.

[u]Population and culture[/u]
The kingdom of Kitsunia is inhabited by native Kitsunians and a large number of slaves. The fast majority of slaves are humans but other races can be found too.

Kitsunians live in a hierarchical society that is divided along clan lines. Clans are a group of families headed by a family of noble birth. Also there is a distinct difference between those who live in the cities and those who still cling to the old nomadic ways. 

The urbanized Kitsunians value wealth, status and generally pursue a life of luxury and extravaganza. Many of the inhabitants of the cities are land owners or traders. Most of the work is done by slaves and even less fortunate families generally own a slave or two. Humans are by far the most common of slaves because the enslavement of humans is justified by the religious teachings of the Kitsune's. Not to mention that they build their kingdom on what was once human lands. The urbanized ones generally honor their ancestors by throwing feasts in their names or expensive offerings in one of the many shrines that can be found throughout the cities.

The nomadic desert tribes on the other hand value a more simple and conservative life. They kling onto to old ways of living as nomads. They move with their clans from one oasis of the desert tp the next. The nomads generally value courage and battlefield prowess as the early nomads of old had to fight the humans. They often raid human settlements along the border to capture slaves. Slaves are then sold in the cities. Also the tribes engage in caravan trading and cattle herding. Status among the nomadic tribes is determined by the quality of the horses and camels they ride on.

[u]Geography and important locations[/u]
Kitsunia is a desert kingdom. THe vast majority of the land consists of the endless sand dunes that stretch as far as the eyes can see. The land is cut in half by the river of life. A giant river that creates a very fertile enviroment around it shores. Most of the cities and settlements are located on the rivershores of the river of life. The grounds around the river is extremely fertile due to the yearly flooding of the river.
