Government
During the age of ancient Netheril, Murghôm was thought to have been ruled by the family of the then mortal Myrkul. Then known as Myrkul Bey al-Kursi, the Crown Prince of Murghôm.

Before the 15 century, the leaders of the Murghômi were called ataman. The state was a series of semi-autonomous communities that gathered into collective government only in times of war.

That changed in the 15 century DR, when Murghôm was "conquered" by dragons. As of 1489 DR, the nation was ruled by the powerful dragon princes.

Inhabitants were referred to as Murghômi. As of 1479 DR, the population was made up by dragons of many varieties and a large population of mulani.

Culture
