I've a historical question about the Sweboz. As this is not strictly a question related to the game, I don't know if it is permitted to ask this question, but I'll give it a try.

The Sweboz (and Germanic tribes in general) did, according to vague information on the EB site and from the game, elect their kings rather than having a hereditary ruler (though the king had to be of noble birth). I wonder how they did go about electing them? Did all the people have a vote in the matter? Men, women, slaves etc. Or was it just the nobles who elected? Or did they do as the Celts did (according to the EB information), i.e the people elected a chief for their village, the chiefs elected a chieftain for a larger area and so on until finally a kuningaz was elected as the highest authority. Or how did they do?

I also wonder, what is the closest equivalent today to the Harjanaz? Obviously the kuningaz was the equivalent to the head of the state, wasn't he?
