In the years of Our ancestors, right government was achieved through the gathering of nobles to the Imperial Capital, so that they may speak on matters of regional importance, and so that local needs may receive the attention of the Golden Mango Throne; and also, in those days, the ranks of nobility were rejuvenated through the bestowal of lands and titles upon those who demonstrated noble character in the service of Our Throne,

The following has been offered as a sign of Our devotion to right government:
