   Yes they have. Its worth noting that the computer game greatly simplifies things for purposes of playability - Sartar actually has seventeen tribes (not counting Far Point, which was added shrotly before the Conquest) with something an average of about six or seven clans each. Three of the tribes are not 'normal' Heortlings (Sun County, Ducks and the Telmori).

   In the computer game, you found the kingdom by (among other things)
getting a group of tribes to create a town with you. In the RPG setting, this happened a number of times shortly before the kingdom was created (by a chap named Sartar). Thus three 'tribal confederations exist, each consisting of a group of tribes who share the same town, although there isn't an overall leader for the confederation. A number of tribes aren't part of confederations, though, while the city of Boldhome acts as national capitol and isn't associated with any specific group of tribes.

   At the top is the King, although there's currently a puppet on the throne with administration actually in the hands of the Lunar Conquerors.
