Rune’Daath is run by a monarchy, based around the current royal family. The El-Hashem’s have ruled since the First Era. It is seen as taboo for any member to leave the Sultanate, unless by exile. Much of Rimal Al'ajdad has been complacent and accepting of the never changing family. They revere Jawahir El-Hashem as one of the greatest Fida'an. There have been several battles of those who would overthrow the family, almost succeeding in some of the attempted coups, though, the trained military has always emerged victorious.
