: My dictionary defines Ephor as an elected greek
: magistrate, mentioning ancient Sparta as the source.
: This leads me to believe that The Dwarves have some
: sort of Constitutional Monarchy. Such a Government
: would make a lot of sense for Dwarves as it defines
: both a progress-minded society and ancient tradition.
GURPS says that the Dwarves are traditionally ruled by the twin ephors of Stoneheim and Myrgard, and that their government more resembles a guild than any traditional form of rule. I don't know where King Albrecht fits into there.
