Nivemus is sort of the rebellious teenage kid to Sirion who repeatedly tries to prove its independence by making less than well thought out decisions just to demonstrate that they are a separate entity...
Which is much how SoA stood to Fontan - excepting that the pro-democracy party was also generally anti-SoA because of the manner in which it was created. I hope Nivemus turns out better or the war between Fontan and Sirion will have been for nothing.
