======The Law in Iskitaan====== The legal system, or law, in the realms of Iskitaan is a complex and layered system. The High King is responsible for setting the master laws to which the various [[Regions|Realms]] must comply with and enforce, but those laws are aimed mostly at trade, dispute resolution and some basics rights of humanity. Any additional laws a realm or city wishes to enforce are it's own province, though they cannot conflict with the High King's Laws. ===High King's Laws=== //a selection of the High King's Laws and/or links to more detailed treatises about them:// * a prohibition against slavery or the slave trade within Iskitaan, including defining humanity to include Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, all crossbreeds and even Orcs. * a prohibition against murder, rape and other violent crimes * laws strictly controlling the manufacturer of guns and gun powder, and who may own/possess them. Technically, the High King owns all guns, and only his lawfully assigned agents are allowed to possess them, and manufacturer or possess gunpowder. * [[Mining Law]] * [[Trade Law]] * [[Laws of War]]
