Island City-State is eight islands ruled by one large (population 116,000) city, the name of which translates to 'City of the Island Peoples'. The other towns are Drauch, population 11,000; Hiaqi, population 7000, and Eassa, population 10,400. There are five uninhabited islands: Joame, Yaqhu, Eap, Eara, and Lorbannery. Religion is primarily Central American; years ago is was mostly American Indian, but as those deities are all dead, faith has shifted away from that group of deities. The commonest marriage form is multiple wives. Relations between the Island and Lyda and Tharia are good, mostly because either could crush the Island in military conflict.
The Island city state, aka Island Kingdom (although it's not truly a kingdom, this name is commonly used), was founded in 725 Eighth Age. ( In 700 Eighth Age, colonists from Sardaukar were sent to the southwest, and occupied the islands now known as the Island City-State. This colony broke free in 725 Eighth Age.) The ruler of the country is the high priest of the temple, and the rulers of sub-territories are all priests of some Central American deity. Each provides labor, soldiers, and taxes to the lord over them. When the current high priest dies, the remaining priests choose a new high priest through a series of votes, typically strongly affected by bribes, threats, and cronyism. This priest is usually, but not always, a Quetzalcoatl priest.
