Panunith

For each of the five gods that are worshiped in Panunith, excluding Noor, there are two bishops, for a total of 10. Every 3 years, the ten bishops vote on who they will elect to be the Archbishop. The Archbishop doesn’t have any special governmental authority, however, they do have the people’s devotion which is a powerful tool.

The current public opinion of Panunith is amazing. They have been thriving ever since the end of the Great Disruption and the people adore the bishops. The war has, oddly enough, increased trust in the government. 

Panunith's relation to Elwin has been terrible ever since the Western War. Panunith is currently at war with Rulbari. Its relations with Agrana are slowly degrading due to Agrana's support of Rulbari. 

With a population of ~892 million people, Panunith’s population is spread fairly evenly throughout its territory, though the five major cities are the densest of course.

The climate of Panunith is a mixture of humid and temperate. The temperature is often consistent and pleasant.

Religion is a large part of Panunith. They follow the goddess Noor as well as those in her pantheon. The gods worshiped the most are Noor, Drear, Temora, Lyna, Esis, and Vearus. There is freedom of religion in Panunith, so you can worship whomever you want, but it is frowned upon to worship a god or goddess that isn’t a part of the Noor pantheon.

Panunith’s economy has been increasing significantly since the Great Disruption. Their main resources are crops, dyes, and livestock. Panunith’s government gains its funding from mainly donations, which the people happily give. Panunith has roughly 20% of the continent’s merchants.

There are ten bishops. The current archbishop is Maximillian Ather

Under Temora, there is Maximillian Ather and Camilla Farraday. 

Under Drear, there is Amelda Ryder and Felix Fitz.

Under Lyna, there is Irene Purslove and Reginald Dandridge.

Under Esis, there are Isaac Astor and Curtis Keaton.

Under Vearus, there is Gloria Lovett and Olympia Exater.

The citizens of Panunith often share with others in their community. Due to this, the people of Panunith have a large sense of community with others, even if they just met them. If someone can’t afford an inn in a city, it is common for residents to offer them to stay at their homes for the night.
