Sense the "Chief" in sense has no real meaning sense Salciana is not unified The Jarl of Salincutta actually holds the power right now Tipper has become the Jarl but whoever is the Jarl is the true leader. And it is why this system is corrupt become Jarls are Monarch not voted in through income like the Chief is and so whoever is Jarl will basically become the Chief that is why the Malone family 90% of the time become Chiefs.

Besides armed hunters, militia, and scavenger teams the only real "army" is the Salincutta guard who are conscripted from familys (Hunters,homesteaders, ect) and are armed with some of the best weapons to offer . They mostly protect the town of Salincutta and 3 miles around but some times send out search partys or small war partys to fight off barbarians.

Salciana has had a long brutish history starting when people from all over the Nordic waters started exploring coming upon the lush island(s) of todays Salciana. Lots of the people settled in this region but some fought over it. There were many different tribes full of Hunters, gatherers, fisherman, and Farmers (The highly praised people in the society). As time went on Salciana stayed in the past but as explorers came distributed weapons. But as soon as that happened tensions rose and food supply's (For a few years) were at a all time low. The Lazy savages decided to become Raiders and Barbarians and sack the Homesteads and camps in Salciana and sense they were the first real united people were unstoppable. But soon a tribe of Hunters (The Olson family) married into (The Anders family) who Homesteaded with (The Elkins family) who were also related. They become the strongest (Non savage) bond controlling land. But the Olsons had an idea They had meat and crops but had no connection to the sea so they got the Elkins family to marry into the (Fors family) now the 4 familys were united but the Olsons had another Idea (The current government of the 4 familys) so they picked out the best plot of land and started building a town soon to become the only real "Town" in Salciana. It bustled with trade and soon the family's offered protection to smaller familys and clans if they offered Fealty to them. After the town become large they started conscripting military to protect trade routes from Barbarians and not part of newly established government clans. Now over 75% of clans are in the established government and are registered. (Each clan has to contribute 5% of there resources they make to the government for protection and other services and sell as much as they want on the new free market).

In a sense the Salcianans are nationalist they love their culture and there people thinking it is the "only way to go". The highly praised people are usually the Hunters who are most of the average army and leaders. Drinking is big in Salciana culture and a man who can drink 10 jugs of beer is usually a healthy leader. There are economy laws in place in salincutta market.
Thee groups can only sell these
Fisherman: Fish and Sea based animals (Otters, whales, ect)
Homesteaders: Crops and Domesticated Animals (Oxen, Goat, dog, ect)
Hunters: Any meat they find in the wild
Scavengers: They work for the Salincutta government so they find supplies for the building of the town and food for the guard.
If anyone brakes these laws they could be outcasted or sentenced to death. Homesteaders MAY hunt and hunters MAY grow food (Very Common the hunters side) but are NOT allowed to trade or sell it.
