Tosek (Orzu)

The Tosek is an informal Orkuzi term, that refers to the mode of ordering of space in Orkuzi political tradition. Modern scholars see Tosek as a way for Orzu to preserve cooperation, and allow the existence of heterogeneous political formations among it's diverse ethnic groups. Under Tosek the region is united by a sole spiritual authority, one concerned with the final ends of things, theology, arts, and the sciences. The spiritual authority gives legitimacy to a multitude of distinct political formations (ex companies, sovcorps, tribal councils), with differing levels of power, responsibilities, and control. It is seen as a quilt of local political formations, all united and woven together by spiritual power. The spiritual power is seen as the guarantor of national harmony - possessing the unique ability to be the final decider in disputes. In normal periods, however, it is to stay out of politics - merely concerned with the sciences, spiritual advice and creating art. The Tosek is seen as a rejection of the [insert whatever Westphalia is in Aeia here] state, for more unique political models suited for Orkuzi culture. Due to Tosek, Orzu posseses no unified legal code nor a written Constitution - but instead a diversity of political formations - from wealthy cities with an Asuran legal code, to traditional tribal entities.
