− | '''A toor''' /tʊər/ was a nomadic political entity in the second revolution of [[Tarnaria]]. The name originates from [[Toor]], an early Tarnarian civilization that was upended by a series of revolts. One of the leaders of the uprisings, [[Gened]], referred to the nomadic kingdom he founded as "the true Toor". After the establishment of [[Stogen]] in the 2nd [[CSR]], with its strong basis in the [[Mōroh]] philosophy, nomadic kingdoms of Tarnaria began to refer to their kingdoms as toors. | + | '''A toor''' /tʊər/ was a nomadic political entity in the second revolution in [[Tarnaria]].

| Although most toors were nomadic, a city state could also be considered a toor, as long as it had minimal sedentary population. Such cities forbade owning a house and instead operated as inns of sorts, but inns that would be open only to the citizens of a given toor and a foreigner would require an invitation of a document to stay or pass through. The king's army and court would also periodically star in such a state, but Mōroh principles would not allow the court to stay in the city for too long either. | | Although most toors were nomadic, a city state could also be considered a toor, as long as it had minimal sedentary population.

| Many cities, however, were not toors in and of themselves and instead served as camps for toors that controlled the territory. | | Many cities, however, were not toors in and of themselves and instead served as camps for toors that controlled the territory. |
