The Confederation of the Five Kingdoms – formally, the Five Kingdoms Confederacy or the Northern Confederacy – was a dual state, a multi-confederation of Abanthus, Bellmere, Ebrimel, Fydoria, and Stormholt ruled by a common monarch.
The Confederacy possessed many features unique among contemporary states. Its political system was characterized by strict checks upon monarchical power. These checks were enacted by a legislature () controlled by the nobility (). This idiosyncratic system was a precursor to modern concepts of democracy, constitutional monarchy, and federation. Although the component states of the Confederacy were formally equal, Stormholt was the dominant partner in the union.
