Originally a smaller island chain that was able to develop in relative isolation from the warring of the other factions on Llothu. The Kingdom is run by a King who rules until he dies, is displaced, or agrees to step down. Every King will ceremonially name and cultivate an Heir who will replace him. The Heir is generally a confidant and the hands-on coordinator of military and civilian affairs, appointing officials as necessary.  

Lissing is often the least aggressive of the Llothu governments, spending to develop arts and architecture, libraries, and public schooling. Lissing’s aggressive space exploration program often leads to them finding the next world the Llothu will fight over. Their early settlement and passive-defensive stance toward the other powers generally leaves them with at least a small parcel of territory on most of the worlds within the Llothu sphere of influence, though seldom do they wind up with the biggest piece of the pie when confronted with the more aggressive empires like the Chesh Tarkha or the Yanti Rikiru.
