I am looking for fantasy books where the Worldbuilding and Politics are very well fleshed out, seeing as this is an aspect many an author tends to overlook. Some of my favorites so far have been George R.R. Martin's ASOIAF books and Sapkowski's Witcher books. Additionally, while not a book, Disco Elysium is by far my favorite piece of politically-focused media in general. Ideally, it would be a world that is Medieval, Renaissance, Early Modern or late 1800s/early 1900, and have a decent plotline and decent characters.
Is there anything you can recommend? Thanks!

the magican series whilst YA has some of the best world-building especially the original trilogy (Frank E Fiest)
Please read Perdido Street Station
Anything by Brandon Sanderson, specifically the Mistborn and Way of Kings series
