Casunair

In ancient North Yazland a Casunair was a Rausin form of inter-city government. A Casunair is similar to a league of cities unified under a common interest or leader. Casunairs vary in their centralization from one to another, but the basic commonalities include: an alliance based on mutual interest, some sort of figurehead (not always with executive power), and an agreement of mutual defense. Casunairs were common among the Rausin peoples, and would even spread beyond the Rausin to peoples such as the North Yasgans.
