There are several factors at work:
 
 
1. The republic is a land ruled by law and the laws of succession are very clear.  Legitamate offspring of a noble lord (and illegitame offspiring as well) have a clearly defined  set of rights.
 
 
2. The morality of the order is not completely pervasive amongst republic culture, there is a significant minority of Golanists, Elementalists, and Spirit worshipers in the rural areas, as well as significant.
 
 
  Half elf nobles are certainly looked down upon, by some of the population.
