Kroz is divided into eight Principalities, each ruled by a Prince. Although legend speaks of Kroz once being ruled by a King, there is presently no single ruler of Kroz -- It is, in essence, eight smaller fiefdoms united only by geographic location, common culture, and name. The name of each Principality can change with the surname of the current Prince ruling it. At present, these Principalities (and the names of the Princes ruling them) are: Diamante, Cobalt, Stiletto, Naochi, Darklight, Urban, Silverbirch and Dack.

The major races found in Kroz (Cervani, Skreek, Jupani, Skeek, Rath'ani, and Khatta/Kattha) tend to have a high incidence of genetic variance toward human-like characteristics in the form of human-like head hair, plantigrade leg stance, and a tendency toward a human range of height. There are also many Kavis to be found in Kroz, though they don't show any special genetic variation along these lines.

Legends tell of an ancient kingdom known as Moltpaa, which used to exist underground in an area with the same borders as present-day Kroz. There are many monsters said to inhabit these ruins, along with many traps ... and many treasures. Thus, Kroz is sometimes a magnet for adventure-seekers.
