What is it?

After the Rulebook, the most important Amtgard document. The corpora is a kind of bylaws for the Kingdom, and contains the rules for how the kingdom is run, how elections are held, Awards granted, and so forth. Contains a mix of both real-world and Amtgard regulations.

About half the kingdoms use the Burning Lands Corpora, and the rest use their own corpora, usually having to do with the differences between a Static Crown kingdom like Burning Lands and a Floating Crown one like the Celestial Kingdom.

Most kingdoms require candidates for office to pass a test on their corpora. The Celestial Kingdom also requires officers in Duchy and Barony positions to pass a test of their corpora.
