Law and order are the exception, rather than the rule, in Calradia. During times of war, they plunder enemy villages, attack opposing armies in the field, and seek to conquer castles and towns through siege warfare. Nobles and kings lead their war parties across Calradia, attending tournaments, feasts, and collecting taxes from fiefs entrusted to them. Each faction is free to wage war, form alliances, or sign peace treaties with other factions. The land of Calradia is neither static nor affected only by the player's actions. There are five factions in the original Mount&Blade and six in Mount&Blade: Warband, each with a ruler, a claimant, twenty vassals and a collection of fiefs that make up each faction's region.
