The Sun Chamber is the governing body of the Republic of Bachuan. Founded by Grandfather Pei after the Bachuan Revolution, the Sun Chamber formed the nerve center of the new communist government. Consisting of at least half a dozen ambitious councilors, the Sun Chamber oversees numerous ministries, most infamously the Ministry of Peace and Harmony.1

Following Grandfather's death in 4668 AR, the Sun Chamber has been chaired by his younger widow, Pu Yae Men, better known as Grandmother Pei.1

By 7210 IC Bachuan's failures had accelerated. Monsters overran the lands as the ruling Sun Chamber no longer had the funds to control them. Grandmother Pei's absence from meetings raised concerns that her health, and her grip on the nation, was slipping away. The vacuum of power was filled by the Sun Chamber's division into six competing factions led by Pei family members, and tensions built until the unexpected arrival of Shui Jing from Po Li in 7215 IC.2

Shui Jing charmed her way into the Pei family social circle and reconciled them for long enough to draft several new policies, including dividing Bachuan into six municipalities for the new factions to rule.2
