After centuries of war, the kings and queens of Palia's feudal monarchies united to form the First Council. The First Council divided Palia into thirteen states, each ruled by its own king, queen, or elected Councilor. It was during the early formation of the Republic that the First Council outlawed the use of magic, with the exception of usage by the Order itself and the independent state of Umbraa.
The United Order of the Palian Republic was formed to govern the use of magic and prevent further war from breaking out. The Order answers only to the Inner Circle and Grand Council, along with its appointed Grand Luminary. Order Grand Luminaries: Nia (0-110 F.C.) Jabron (110-118 F.C.) Yazek (118-209 F.C.) Sadi (209-266 F.C.) Amani (266-299 F.C.) Omar (299-315 F.C.) Nara (315-377 F.C.) Jioni (377-425 F.C.) Erwhin (425-Present)
