    I vote for City States.

    Very, very large city states. An entire plane of Sharns and Waterdeeps.

    Though we're still only working out the rudiments of the other plane at the moment, I do have a personal opinion on this. However, in the interests of not stepping on toes, I'll just suggest that you vote as though only the "main" plane's politics be set in this fashion.

    Also of interest: If I am correct, we have only three polls left. The next two, in particular, will be crucial for setting flavor.

    Also: You all missed a pretty crucial detail on an earlier poll's result. We won't tell you what it is, yet, but... suffice it to say, I expected to get called on it at least once.

    Still might. The next poll will draw a lot of attention, and the final poll will draw a heap of messages.

    Hmmm. I won't be too upset if City-States wins; it's generally a great setup for RPGs. But somehow it just doesn't feel right for this setting to me. Multiple Large Empires seems boring in combination with Several Large Continents geography. One Global Empire seems boring in combination with monotheism.

    I vote Mixed Large/Small Nations.

    City-States really doesn't fit the feel of this, from what I can tell. If this was based on Ancient Greece, then absolutely it'd be the way to go. This is based on Arabian Nights, though, so I'm thinking something like Many Large Empires (or at least Many Large Nations) might fit better.

    Scratch any suggestions until I find out what would be accurate.

    Accuracy really doesn't matter. If we wanted accuracy, we wouldn't have offered this for a vote.

    Technically true, but a lot of my votes have been based around being true to the source material. It's a good part of the reason why monotheism got my vote, for one.

    City-States. I like the variety they can incorporate.
    Step 1: Get workers to make goods for you.
    Step 2: Sell the goods for a higher amount than what you pay the workers.
    Step 3: ???
    Step 4: Profit!
