Petra (Sydalene: Betrāʾ), officially the Principality of Petra, is a Royal domain in eastern Sydalon. It is only one of two domains that is coextensive with a province of the same name – the other being Kerkouane – and contains some of the territory that was part of the larger Principality of Petra in the Middle Ages. It is an exclave, that shares no land borders with mainland Sydalon, instead it is bordered to the west by Ascalzar, and Yisrael to the south, with a maritime border along the Aradian Sea.
Since the 14th century, Petra has been administered by the Order of the Holy Lance under the authority of the Sydalene monarch, who is Grand Master of the Order. Due to this special administrative role, Petra is granted more autonomy than other royal or non-royal domains, along with the ability to create its own substantive law. It is governed by the Chancellor-General, a member of the Order of the Holy Lance appointed by the Monarch, and a First Minister, who is the chief representative of the General Assembly.
