   Makensett is a land located to the west of the Western Ocean, densely populated and home to several million people. 150 years ago, invaders from the continent sailed the ocean and occupied part of Makensett, establishing their own sovereign states and duchies. The various duchies and sovereign states established by the invaders are ruled by the families descending from the first conquerors, and de jure are governed by a single viceregal authority. The various families of the invaders are infighting for influence and authority over one another. The invaders are collectively known by the people of Makensett as the "Imperials", though their endonym is "Homelanders". The dynasty that formerly ruled Makensett has gone extinct, with only a few noble houses and rump states claiming to be the true successors of the now extinct Makensett government.
