Jump to navigationJump to search→Mōrtoh of siblings
Normally, when a gole ascends to the throne, their first concern is to establish their own Mōrtoh and then weaken the Mōrtoh of siblings. This is frequently done by recruiting elders from that Mōrtoh into one's own, as well as distributing the ownership of lands between siblings, so as to move them out of the royal house and weaken their relationship with their elders. Gole's sibling might be given the role of Jeenor (head of army) and be sent to campaign, the idea being that in case of success Jeenor would assume rule over that new land and not have incentives to challenge the rule of the gole.

The weakening of Mōrtoh of siblings is not necessarily an adversarial process: gole's siblings might look forward to actually begin actively serving under the new gole and take their place in important posts of the state.
