Kalnozeme Confederacy

The Kalnozeme Confederacy is a loose coalition of hill tribes inhabiting the rugged hills at the centre of the continent, South of Szoranskie. The Kalnozeme tribes are a diverse assortment of human barbarians, orcs, goblinoids, Goliath herds, wild elves and old dwarves who have banded together for their survival. Widely regarded as savages (more romantically as noble savages, but still), the Kalnozemes still stick to the old ways, refusing to convert to the faith of the Church, causing conflict with the Szorans to the South. They are headed by a Grand Chief, elected by the Tribesmeet which meets annually at the summer solstice, but are otherwise fractious and fight eachother occasionally.
