One of the five noble families in the Agatean Empire who wrestle for the rule of the Counterweight continent and periodically succeed in getting a member enthroned as Emperor.

The McSweeneys are a very old established family, despite their name which doesn't fit in with the other four houses: Sungs, Tangs, Hongs and the Fangs.

Annotation
