Kingdom of Essex 

• Ruled by High King Lucas

• Capital - Cambridge

• Strong feudal society alongside religious, trade and maritime traditions

• Centre of shipbuilding industry and home to Albion's naval forces

• Population often seen as roguish and mercenary, yet respected for their talents and connections

• Essex is similar to Wessex in many ways, but is more open to influence from the Continent Lands. The difference in attitudes and customs has bred an heir of cosmopolitanism and superiority, as well as contempt for the population
