Factions in the world of Phantara can be broken into three parts.
Kingdoms are collective groups over peoples under a single focus, ideal, or governing body — often over vast Regions.
Regions are often without major political power, or a variety of political interests that often do not spread beyond their own individual groups.
Groups are a collection of individuals with a pointed purpose that often transcends regions and Kingdoms, but often have localized branches.
