Re-Estize Kingdom

Re-Estize Kingdom (リ・エスティーゼ王国) is a human nation of the New World and one of the three major human nation neighboring Nazarick. The kingdom is currently on a political disorder and civil unrest between the King Faction and the Greater Nobility Faction.

Background
Re-Estize Kingdom is located west of the Azerlisia Mountains, north-west of The Great Tomb of Nazarick, usually called as "the Kingdom". Though it is one of three main human nations appeared in Overlord, the Kingdom is suffering political disorder. The confrontation between Patricians and Loyalists is quite severe, virtually dividing the country into two. King and major nobles own 30% of the territory for each while 40% left are domains of minor nobles. The only reason that the kingdom did not split is Marquis Raeven, the opportunist who owns highest authority among the six major nobles. Also many nobles regardless of faction are in league with other countries, like Baharuth Empire or Slane Theocracy.

Apart from all political issues, large criminal group named "Eight Fingers" is undermining the Kingdom, and annual war against the Empire is slowly consuming the national strength. The Golden Princess is attempting to structural reform of the Kingdom, yet most of her tries were frustrated by the nobles. At least the slavery was abolished, but still there are lot of unofficial slaves in the underground.

Culture
The Re-Estize Kingdom is a feudal society. At the top of the hierarchical structure stands the king and the royal family. Next comes the nobility who possess major landholdings in the kingdom. And at the bottom are the serfs.

Titles and even professions are all hereditary passed down. Social advancement in the kingdom seems to be unlikely as any progress made is always hindered by the nobles, who fear that such changes might endanger their power and stations.
