Bracchian Rhogganate

The Bracchian Rhogganate is the government of the Bracchian race of humanoids. It is a feudal military system of governance. The head of the government was the Rhoggan, who is elected for life from among the members of the Rhoggan's Council, a group of 12 of the most powerful feudal lords in the realm who collectively rule over the Rhogganate.

The military government-provincial domain system was the feudal political system utilized by the Rhogganate. The provincial feudal lords - the Bragghus, held power within their respective feudal provinces as vassals to the Rhoggan's Council.

Vassals held inherited lands and provided military service and homage to their lords. This feudal system split feudal power between the Rhogganate on Bracchia Prime and provincial domains throughout Bracchian-controlled territory. Provinces had a degree of sovereignty and were allowed an independent administration of the province in exchange for loyalty to the Rhoggan and his council, who were responsible for external relations and security. The shōgun and lords were all daimyōs: feudal lords with their own bureaucracies, policies, and territories.
