Procession of the Equals

I built this lego diorama on my mantel. Each year the castle and village hold a procession celebrating the uniquely republican political arrangements which have brought peace and prosperity to the region for hundreds of years. This annual event, known as The Procession of the Equals it is a highly ritualized parade, in which each part has a symbolic political meaning, and the order and appearance of the participants is strictly dictated by tradition.

A guide to the participants in the procession.
