Merchant-Republic of Rombehonia

The Merchant Republic of Rombehonia, situated on the islands of Rombehonia and homeland to the Tieflings and Demonkin. Rombehonia has for almost all of it's history been a peaceful nation, however when the pirates of Garigland founded their nation Rombehonia's response was harsh and quick. The instant it was formed they sent out ships to guard their waters and sink ships bearing Garigland's coat of arms. The majority of the people in Rombehonia live in cities while a small amount live on the outskirts. There aren't many farmers as most of their needs are imported from the mainland, they can afford to do this due to their position which is highly beneficial for trade between the majority of the mainland and the island nations. Rombehonia does not have a monarch but instead relies on a council who's members get voted in from the guilds, this way practically everyone is represented which keeps the populace happy. Due to the mercantile nature of the state the Rombehonians don't have the time nor interest in building a standing army, instead they rely on mercenaries in time of war.
