An order is a group united by a common interest, whether it is a hobby, profession or otherwise. Like clans, they provide another dimension of influence that cuts across tribes.
Orders must be presented to the Council of the Confederation at the annual Mountain Festival. The Council must return an unanimous consent for the new order to be instituted as an officially sanctioned order of the Appalachian Confederation. Of course, there is little the Council can do to stop individuals from associating in set ways; this vote only bars the official recognition of the order as part of the Confederation, and denies the order representation on the Council.
There are currently no established orders of the Confederation.
