			== Politics ==
			All important matters to Thure were decided by the Thing, a meeting hall where all free men could vote and have their voices heard. The Thing was also responsible for electing a leader to wage war and conduct raids.

			There was no state religion in Thure, as personal freedom was so highly valued. A variety of religions were present: traditional Thurian mythology, Jalhar mythology, and many other sects and confessions. [[Kryero]] was said to have a chapel present.

			== Economy ==
			Thure was a largely agrarian society, exporting food products and timber throughout the [[Inner Sea]], especially to [[Nosamo]]. There were small artisanal mining operations and handicraft, but most metal products were imported. The economy was also supported by raiding foreign lands and through the subjugation of Thure's neighbours.
