==Government==

The Northern Confederation was a {{Wp|confederation}} consisting of dozens of entities including many different cultures and governing systems. Above it all, the unwritten precepts of the Great Confederation, the event which established the polity, served as the central constitution of the Confederation. This unwritten constitution evolved over time, not based on a system of legislative revisions or judicial review but by a decentralized process by which the Great Confederation took on additional mythological meanings and traditions. This took place through the process of cultural interpretation and reinterpretation, a process that some scholars have called "government by {{wp|zeitgeist}}".

From that time on, the Received Guidances took on increasing importance as legal documents as courts within the country were partly reformed to follow a localized version of {{wp|common law}} courts.

Although the Great Confederation was ultimately fluid, some of the most important governing institutions of the Northern Confederation were in existence for all or a majority of its existence.

==Culture==

The Northern Confederation was an extremely diverse polity, with more than fifty distinctive cultural groups and nations within its confines. Throughout the latter half of the Confederation's history, the Algosh, Housatonish, Honeoye, and Ashkenauk began to influence outsized cultural over the other peoples throughout the Confederation.
