| The Kyokushoku clan is a self-empowered entity imposing trade, crop, and livestock taxation on the agricultural communities which surround it. The military force of the Kyokushoku clan, and lack of any other organized government within the [[Free Lands]], enables them to bully the farming communities into compliance.
