The "Crown Aligned" were a political faction of [[Krashaprovos]] that supported the interests of [[The Alavastian Empire]] and [[The Mallek Royal Family]] over the interests of the City of Krashaprovos (which was supported by the [[City Aligned]]). Whether purposefully or inadvertently, Crown Aligned politicians supported [[The Claw of Tiamat]] and [[Y'Driltha The Grave|Y'Driltha]]'s dark aspirations, the subjugation of the native [[Gata]], military conquest, and "law and order". After [[The Burning of Krashaprovos]] and The Empire's withdrawal from [[Crescada]], Krashaprovos was granted independence and the City-vs.-Crown conflict was largely resolved.
