Background Information
Realms and Peoples and Nations and Kingdoms and Empires (Past and Present)
The Helegu Khanate
History both distant and recent
A powerful confederation of nomadic tribes that were united under a great leader Khagan Temir 300 years ago. Over the next 200 years the Helegu consolidated a huge inland khanate obliterating and subjecting many civilisations and tribes, both human and non-human. More than 25 million were killed during these years.
The Kaganate stretched from the cold steppes in the north, then south across grasslands, plains, deserts to the tropical savannah. It is often referred to as the “Land under the Eternal Blue Sky”.
Upon the death of Mengu-Timur Khaganate on the Erensari Plains 135 years ago the confederacy broke up due to internal divisions, ongoing insurgencies, constant rebellion and a series of rolling coups. After 50 years of bloody chaos five great hosts emerged 80 years ago to rule a collective khanate reduced in size:
Silver Host (Jumulkha Khan), capital is the great tent city of Onon Roaring Host (Tocave Khan) Blue Host (Kuju Khan) Burning Host (Tangut Khan) Golden Host (Damed Khan - last ruler killed 10 years ago)
After a 20 years of sheer nonstop brutality the Golden Host was torn apart 10 years ago and it’s territories are now contested over by a vast number of different contenders and Helegu factions.
The Silver Host is currently expanding, primarily into territories of the other Hosts and is rumoured to be on the verge of full scale war with the Blue Host.

Serving the Helegu
The Helegu extract annual tribute from all client states and tribes.
Civilised areas will be under the control of a Mughal (Governor). Day to day administration will be left to viceroys or client Kings & rulers. The appointment of any client king or ruler is made by the Mughal. A Mughal is responsible for ensuring tribute flows to the Khan, that the client people do nothing against the interests of the Khan and to demonstrate Helegu power so as to constantly remind the locals of who is the boss.
