  • Current Leader: Archon Erik Von Swartzburg
  • Points -
    • Location: Arid agricultural basin grassland with coastline
    • Starting Resources: Some metals and precious minerals

  • National description and history: Created by a Drakan ethnic group, the society of Drama is rather stratified. It is notorious by neighboring tribes as being slavers who are highly xenophobic. The religion, rather obscure to foreigners, is idol worshipers and founding saints of the nation. Religious unity is strong, but enforced via ruthless ostracization if one is against the ideals of the Drakan people. Known for their highly spartan lifestyle, the Draka go as far as to take pride in their atrocities. Despite their great pride, they are obscure and feared by outsiders.

Bangor

  • Name: Bangor
  • Player: Adolf Coffee
  • Current leader(s): Kening Kruger
  • Points: 175
    • Location: Mediterranean Biome on a Major Island
    • Starting resources: Precious Metals
    • Religion: Disorganized Polytheism
    • Starting Buildings: Granary,town center, temple, government center, harbor, library, walls, barracks.

    • Rural population: 10 Citizens, 4 poor/serfs, 1 foreigner
    • Size of Empire: Urbanized Area
    • Starting gold/currency supply: 15
  • Nation Description and History: Bangor is a gradually modernizing nation on the Island of Kadiff. It was established by George the Great who as a warrior had led his men to conquer and settle in a prosperous area of the island. Named after the hills around the founding city, Bangor has grown from its natural resources and location into a well-formulated state. Religious unity remains mildly loose with the beliefs of polytheism remaining intact. Mount Indinues on the outskirts of Bangor tends to erupt often causing minor damage to the outskirts triggered by Goddess Indi's awakening. God Endus, following the eruptions, blesses our people with fruitful harvests. Some mysterious people from across the sea known as the Franics have come over from the Southern Channel and have begun to come in larger numbers in the recent years bringing their culture with them. This has led to some race mixing and new words into our vocabulary although the Bangor People's beliefs have been challenged as a result leading to mixed relations. Over the last several generations of the Reich's family ruling the Keningdom, Kening Kruger Reich has risen to power as the youngest leader yet. The Library of Harsen remains to be the largest and most protected archive for written literature with a goal of making five more libraries to hold copies of stored literature over the past several generations to be distributed abroad. Nobility and some common folk are the only people who have access to this. Recently, Kruger's wife had given birth to a daughter who is expected to take the throne at the death of Kruger. The Horper River had experienced a major flood recently leading to moderate damage to those living along the banks.

  • History: The city of Syres was founded by colonists approximately 120 years ago - descended from the “Darians”, a group of people who inhabited the lands across the sea to the south. According to legend the leader of the first expedition to the present day city was Erian, who established the city’s layout. This later would be declared the Year One. The main city is built upon a hill at the end of an island, surrounded in the north by marshland and small fragmented islands. The many islands of the present-day city initially acted as independent communities, but each was incorporated into a single city over time, becoming present day sections of the city. In the Year Ten Erian the Founder died and was succeeded by his younger brother Yiyis in Syres proper. At this time there existed five sections; Syres, Fensport, Maritis, Loreo, and Dolis. The latter came to be ruled by the two monarchs' father, called Niephan-den Eron. With his aid the first five cities were united with the Compact of the Ages, which became the main component of the city’s law system. A representative body known as the Hensa was created, although in the early years of the city’s history the assembly lacked any real power. The first ruler to be selected under the Compact would be Nephi. Throughout the city’s first 40 years of existence it was largely dominated by the Marani, the original settler party and their immediate descendants. As subsequent groups arrived and settled within the city proper the ruling class became heavily outnumbered by the lower class Raphani, who rebelled and managed to overthrow the ruling class. Many of the city’s early records were destroyed in this chaos, causing ambiguity regarding the exact events. About 20 years after the initial event, however, the Marani reestablished control over the city. Their short return to rule was replaced in the Year 75 after a crisis in the monarchy led to the creation of a new process, in which the Hensa would select the ruling monarch. The nation was eventually dominated by a handful of the most powerful and richest dynasties in the city, but their rivalries successfully prevented any attempt to reestablish a hereditary monarchy in the city.

  • Nation Description and History: The city of Darna was founded by Danslan as the home of the Linelians on the Island of Linelsey. They are a seafaring nation who inhabit a harsh environment on a small island. They quickly turned to shipbuilding as a means to explore the region around them. They became hostile with many of the neighbors on the coast due to their practice of raiding, which turned Darna into a slave trading hub. They sell captives hundreds of miles - and they also sell timber and other goods on small river boats.

  • Nation Description and History: In ancient times, a thriving civilization had a great empire spanning a huge area in all directions. They were great, and had a sacred location on the same mountain Azoz now resides on. They built many elaborate tombs and gigantic monuments for their gods in and around this area as well. Some 300 years ago, however, a great catastrophe struck the empire of unknown origin, causing it to completely collapse almost overnight. Their tombs and monuments went dilapidated, robbed, and abandoned. Their people eventually died out and were replaced by foreigners, who are now the inhabited of Azoz. After many years of fighting the hostile natives, the people of Azoz have utilized the vast array of catacombs in the mountain to act as a practical fortress. It is unknown what the original name of the city was, but the current ruler has since named the city after himself, King Azoz. The city is partly underground, partly in front of the mountain, surrounded by large walls. The inner caverns of the mountain serve as a natural castle, and home of the nobility and military. On the outside is the ancient ruins, the peasant residents, and the religious centers of temple and library. Outside the city itself, there are many smaller villages surrounding the mountain, managing farmland up to the river. These villages not only provide food for the city, but mine for copper and tin as well. Disease area common problem among the large poor population, as are the constant raids of ugly invaders known as the Ginnai. Money is not something developed yet in this society, as taxes and wealth is measured from direct production. The religion, believed to be passed down from the original inhabitants, is a formalized polytheism based on a handful of powerful deities over a larger collection of nature spirits. This religious tradition, passed down from a powerful oligarchy of priests, also carries a tradition of highly developed mathematics and writing.

  • Nation Description and History: In far off lands, various tribes fell victim to sweeping invaders, their people slaughtered, enslaved, and driven off their lands. Those who escaped came to flood the River Ema, much to the anger of the natives already inhabiting the land, as they were being blamed for the collapse of civilization, As war neared the Prophetess Nysia appeared before them just as the scattered tribes were about to be destroyed. "Behold, I am Nysia and I speak on behalf of the River Ema, for she has given birth to all life, and she has given you life, and with this life she wants you to rule over all of creation, starting with this land. Unite together, and this land will be yours, for the people here of old have turned against Ema yet blame you for her wrath! Conquer this land and give new life to it, this is what Ema says unto you." This call to unity banded the refugee tribes into one, the Emalites, and as the various native kings and people soon warred with each other the Emalites picked up the fallen sword and shield and conquered the fallen civilizations. In the ruins of war, Prophetess Nysia built her civilization, Emalia and with no one to oppose her consolidated her rule over the land.

The initial conquest came as a response to the exile of Gytus and his folk from a now forgotten city far up the river’s current. This initial conquest was not forgotten by the original inhabitants of the fertile irrigated land on the banks of the Tythies and relations between the nomadic hunters and the city are tenuous. Nowadays, the City of Gyt, more of a concentration of small buildings, serves as the administrative and commercial center of the extensive network of small farms and hamlets dominated by trade in cattle, iron, and wheat. The nearby Mountains of Zyos are a source of great wealth for the region as iron ore is readily extractable and worked by the smiths of Gyt. This wealth, a growing population, and increasing pressure to increase trade power has led to a significant internal pressure to expand and seize more land. With that in mind, Kyrkius the most influential Patriarch of the region has begun an armament mission that mandates each hamlet supply a mounted soldier with three javelins, a thrusting spear, a horse-axe, a set of lamellar, and small round shields, typically tasseled.

  • Nation Description and History: Although the written records are not clear on when the city of Edom was founded, it is known to the inhabitants of the city-state that Edom was once a major city of the Elameran Ankum, an ancient nation which spanned a large length of the Meran only a few centuries ago. The empire's downfall however, was brought about by an enormous wave of barbarians who arrived from the south, sacking the Elameran capital as well as several other cities, and pillaging everything else in their path. Luckily for Edom, the horde had been severely lessened by the time they reached the city, lessening the damage, although it was still quite severe. Not long after, the majority of the barbarians left for elsewhere, desiring more riches. Those that remained have mostly been assimilated, at least in the lands around Edom, having generally made peace with the Elameran people who remained. In the aftermath of the empire's collapse and with the horde having left, a wise noblewomen, Lana aze Arela, managed to garner support among her fellow nobles as well as the general populace, due to her competence as well as being the daughter of the Anku's sister, imperial blood being an important trait in the eyes of the nobles. With the support of the populace, she crowned herself Maleka Lana aze Arela, in the style of the rulers of the old Malekane, who reigned in the various cities along the Meran prior to their unification under the Elameran Ankum. The descendants of Maleka Lana aze Arela have ruled Edom for centuries now. However, only now has the city truly started to recover from its sacking by the barbarian horde. Now, under Maleka Shama aze Lana, the Malekan of Edom has begun to look outward again, seeking new opportunities, and perhaps to even reform the fabled Elameran Ankum.

  • History: The foundation myth of the Qeran Empire starts one generation before the first Prince Zâretl arrives and brings the forest tribes to the river, where today the city of Qera stands, which was around 160 years ago. The tribes settled on the various small islands in the calm and very wide river, hence the name of the city which means in their language of Âtluâm "place of islands" (from Qer meaning Island, the suffix -ha or -a indicates a place). According to language the islands were created in a great pre-human conflict between the animals of the forest, led by the god Uon, a xenomorphic lemur who fought the animals of the water, led by Xamehe, a crocodile-like creature. The islands were once a land bridge, where a freshwater spring extended into two directions. When the apes and lemurs (predecessors of humanity) found shiny copper, the water animals grew envious and destroyed the land bridge and separated the land creatures, forcing the creatures to either drown or flee into the forest. Today the city is inhabited by humans and lemurs too, either as pets or as wild animals in the streets. Because of their religion it is not allowed to eat land animals, so the fishing economy is huge and pearls are used as a currency. Around the area of the city there are some amounts of copper and iron, which are used to create weapons and jewelry. The empire is a trading hub and because of this language and some traditions are in constant change. unfortunately it is also a hub for diseases coming with the merchants. Earthquakes can also happen from time to time, which are seen as revenge from the gods toward the citizens or the current prince. Outside of the city there is nothing but thick and dangerous mangroves and jungle with only a few roads, so the citizens focus on the river as the way to get around. Exceptions are the various arms of the rivers, where the peasants breed water animals or cultivate rice. These regions are even poorer than the poor of the capital, as they are so far away.

  • Nation Description and History: Way before the establishment of the Maluku Kingdom, the Makuku people had for a long time wondered the tropical and truly magnificent tropical wilderness. The Makuku, unlike other natives, never fought each other or were a part of opposing clans, instead the Makuku people worked with each other, as they were the only people they knew or trusted, even when coming into contact with other natives. The Makuku eventually started to establish some sort of governance for all of the Makuku people, a tribe was formed in order to prevent incursions from enemy tribes and to further unite the Makuku. Over the decades, the Makuku would successfully defend their ancestral land from invader after invader, which caused an expansion of their territory, which led to them expanding their coast line and being able to expand their waters and get more fish. The Makukus were developing and expanding fast, and so was their culture, which was how their culture was made to be. The Makuku culture and religion centered around a prophecy of a great man of power and position that would come to rule the people and soon the world for eternity, and would lead the people and then the entire earth to greatness, this “great man” was known as the “Tatu”, and was said that there could be multiple Tatus around the world, and would their own people to greatness and eventually unite with the other Tatus to unite the earth. The Tatu of the Makukus soon came when a new chief of the Makuku Tribe by the name of “Fahiti” proved to the Makuku threw rapid and aggressive expansion and successful economic policies that he was the prophesized “Tatu” and was able to reform the Makuku governmental structure, Makuku society, and culture to account for the now confirmed coming of the Tatu, and so Makuku religion and culture was now centered around loyalty and confidence in the Tatu (now called Great Tatu), but to also watch the Great Tatu carefully and if it seems like the Great Tatu is leading the Makuku civilization and people to failure, then he is a false Tatu and overthrowing him is justified. Fahiti also made the government of the Makuku into a monarchy and a fully established set of rules and regulations were made (a sort of constitution, you could say) known as the “Fahiti Kaliti” (Lit. Fahiti Laws) to govern the populace. Today the Makuku Kingdom and People continue to thrive and the Fahiti Kahiti is left untouched.

  • Nation Description and History: The term 'Atnosian' refers to a disparate group of people on the volcanic archipelago known as Atnosia. This ring-shaped archipelago - itself a massive caldera of a super volcano - is prone to producing a wide array of gems, minerals, and metals for which the Atnosians have been famed. Thousands of years ago, Atnosia was ruled by one legendary king - Atnosis - who united the warring clans of Atnosia. Under his tributary system, the Old Atnosian Kingdom reached its height. When he died, the Great Pyramid of Atnosia was constructed. This obsidian-coated pyramid rests in an unpopulated area, untouched by civilization. According to Atnosian legend, Atnosis was reincarnated. The ruling Seekers have been tasked with finding the new Atnosis each time the old one passes away. However, this unified Atnosia of antiquity is either the stuff of ancient history or was merely a legend. With each death of Atnosis, fights between city-states on Atnosia became increasingly frequent, with each state claiming their own Atnosis. Each time a new city-state rose to prominence, they would be struck down violently, either by nature or other city-states.

During the Middle Era of Atnosia, a league of Seekers was formed. This league was able to bring such warring to a halt, with the Seekers determining who the reincarnation of Atnosis truly is. Each time a new Atnosis was brought to the Seekers, they legendarily slew the claimant to keep the peace between the city-states. During this era of uneasy peace, Atnosian trade began to trickle into the various markets far and wide. However, this peace was not meant to last. A series of volcanic eruptions plunged Atnosia into an abyss of volcanic ash and chaos. Now, as the toxic clouds settle and the black rains cease, a new city-state must rise to claim the Obsidian Throne. Time will tell if its power will last or if it will, like all other Atnosian kingdoms, fall to the true master of Atnosia: the will of nature herself ...

  • Nation Description and History: Roughly 500 years ago, the Ríkivan people landed in what was then a relatively undeveloped region on the periphery of the Arelian Empire, a modestly-sized but still regionally important state that had remained in dominion for the past 1,000 years. The Arelians permitted the Ríkivans to settle there - as it was barely populated aside from the hill villages of the Batur peoples - as long as they would pay taxes and remain loyal subjects of the Arelian Empire. This arrangement was stressed 63 years before when due to the Arelian Time of Troubles, the taxes were raised to finance the continuous internal conflict that had become prominent in the empire. 11 years ago, K’árinnar, of the Árin clan, raised the standard of revolt, and soon, all but one of the Ríkivan clans joined the cause, and many of the Batur hill tribes found common cause and joined as well. The war for independence is ongoing.

Among the characteristics of the Ríkivan people include an aptitude for ship building and navigation, and this is largely facilitated by the large Evergreen trees of their area. (probably will be expanded)

  • Nation Description and History: The Anakadeham State was part of numerous tribes scattered across the area, until Chief Mtao Maxius I (translate to "The Iron Chief", due to him wearing an iron suit when battling) united all the tribes to find the Anakadeham State. Legend has it that he achieved this after defeating powerful enemies like Damsan and Mtao Gruxius to unite their tribes into his. He later died after trying to battle the Goddess of Sun himself. His grandson, Mtao Maxius III is now the chief and is following his grandfather's footsteps to become the great conqueror that he was. Wet rice agriculture is mainly participated due to the country being located on the Hauifg River Delta, which is the big deal for the country. Every single male person is required to work, either farming, hunting, etc. even the chief himself; while the females do the chores, sew clothes and take care of the children at home. Due to the hot climate men usually leave their upper bodies naked in the summer. People live in traditional longhouses. To trade with other tribes, the people here have figured out the basic mathematics of addition, subtract, multiplication and divination. A basic moon calendar is also figured out with each month having 30 days and each year lasting 365 days. The nation follows matrilineality, despite that, men are still responsible for household finance and do the heavy work. Mtao Maxius III is seeking expansion and explorers have been sent to explore new land.

  • The inhabitants of the Sillas Republic are said to be the descendants of 50 or so founding clans. The city is surrounded in by four fortresses and a sloping 30-meter tall (30 meters at the base, ten meters at the top) made of rammed earth. It has a total area of four square miles, but a large portion of the inner city is idle or cultivated land. A majority of the population spends a significant portion of their time working on agricultural estates located along the river, as riverine vessels serve as the main vehicle of transportation. The Sillan people are said to be migrants from the cooler, temperate North – being significantly taller and naturally fairer compared to the neighboring tribal polities. They are a matriarchal society, and as a result, they are both matrilineal (property and status are inherited via the maternal line) and matrifocal (with women leading households). They are divided into three classes, all of whom are subject to the ten-clause Sillan Code which guarantees them basic rights. The first class is the nobility, having acquired their status through civil and military examinations. Women are expected to serve as politicians and civil servants, while men serve as high-ranking military officials during times of war while supervising their wives' agricultural estates during peacetime (in conjunction to weekly military drills and daily exercise regimens). The middle-class is comprised of skilled artisans, craftsmen, and merchants. The commoners are comprised of landless peasants who rent land in exchange for giving away 25–50% (depending on the size of the estate) of their produce. While all have the right to vote, only the first two classes actually exercise and value this right, with commoners largely apathetic or easily swayed by public opinion. In addition, there is a large minority of foreign merchants and diplomats. The economy was initially centered on fulfilling the needs of the palatial complex, though the formation of a mercantile class has led to the formation of a market economy with transactions conducted in promissory banknotes (which is pegged to a certain amount of grain or gold). The economy is largely based on the cultivation of its staple – rice, as well as the production of cash crops including coconuts, indigo, tea, and other exotic fruits as well as the production of tea. Root crops and plantains also serve as subsistence crops and ornamental plants.

  • History: Exhula is a semi-urban elective monarchy based around and run from the capital of the nation and only large city and port on the small island we inhabit, Exhul. Exhul was founded by tribesmen from across the island, many of whom came to the coasts and established small ports to avoid the frequent eruptions of Mount Iiyivyit, and eventually banded together to create the city of Exhul in order to enrich themselves further and protect each other. A leader was typically elected by the tribal leaders, but over time those tribes chiefs have become powerful noble family’s residing in Exhul that gather after the death of every Syvotr to elect the next one. This society, based on trade, has often had positive relations with its neighbors, and is usually neutral in conflicts for this reason and to avoid disrupting the flow of trade. Trade has immensely benefited Exhula, and as a result Exhul has grown from a relatively small city with a nomadic populace to one of the largest ports in the region surrounding it, and its reliance on trade also allowed it to utilize Iron, which is abundant on the island of Haaaelos (Exhulan for home) where its people live, faster than other nations due to being the first to receive it through trade with powers farther away, and the secrets of it are currently closely guarded. Due to their name for the island, the ethnic group that makes up most of the islands population is known as either the Haaaelosi or the Xthhri (the other biggest name for the island is Xthhr). Merchants and sailors are revered and respected in Exhulan society and enjoy high status due to being the lifeblood of Exhulan society and economy, and powerful merchants frequently Mary into noble families, which themselves are essentially powerful merchant houses with the right to elect the Syvotr except inherited, and unlike the noble class anyone can become a merchant. Exhula is also known for producing some of the best sailors and ships in the known world (known to us and other nearby civilizations), and has a large fleet. Due to isolation from the rest of the world before it opened trade, the people of Exhul developed there own polytheistic religion separate from those of the mainland, and their own very unique language for the same reason, although that has become heavily influenced by other nearby language families due to reliance on trade. However, its nature as a civilization relying on trade and diplomacy meant that the Exhulans ended up more polytheistic and tolerant of other gods besides their own, and several foreign gods, such as Daltonhersh the Fat, have developed their own small (or in the case of Ddttdal large) followings, although Daltonhersh worship is one of the few religions banned. However, the main religion of Exhula is a disorganized Polytheistic religion called Hcctaal, which worships the Gods Jddai, Jddithic, Ccoth, and Mu’ran primarily and a host of lesser gods. They have an disorganized priesthood with the members of it being known as Jdim (roughly translating to Divine Representative, although the exact translation would be Divine To Represent) without any real hierarchy, although obviously some members have more influence than others. The Priesthood does not have that much power though despite being the main Exhulan Religion, due to its disorganized nature. The rural population provides much of the food in exchange for small shares of the wealth of the city, but fishing (which is also a big part of the economy) and imports are also a large  source of food for the empires people.

  • Nation Description and History: Avsylann is a relatively small city that grew out of a small temple-state, exploding out into a flourishing commercial center. Tin and gems flow from the mountain mines, and harvests are plentiful thanks to the floodings of the Umraed Lake. The abundant minerals and foodstuffs can be traded via the Umraed Harbor, Avsylann's natural connection to the outside world; while the imponent Uldosst Mountains keep the city safe from outside threat. The only serious threats to the city's hegemony are the mountain tribesmen whom the Avsylanth call Dhunraith, aggresive raiders and worshipers of alien gods, the main reason why the mountain-surrounded city still has protective walls. The priesthood of Avsylann keep control of the population by their exclusive knowledge of the flooding cycles, which they use to tell the commoners when to plant, when to harvest and when to evacuate (although they have failed in the past, as the Umraed god is still mysterious and capricious), and an extremely complex religious hierarchy which emerged from the merger of several cults, whom realized their gods were all manifestations of one true God. The priestly colleges that succeeded these early cults still dispute control of the city, but as of now they remain calm under the leadership of High Priest Kyrstad.

  • Nation Description and History: The Durmani are one of the many Esti tribes in the that make up the Estland Plains. The Durmani settled the Valun hill valleys that connect to the greater Ostan Mountains to the north of the plains. A proud and superstitious warrior people of nomadic traditions the Esti fought amongst themselves for control of hunting grounds and over access to the various sacred lands that dot the region. The Durmani were amongst the first to adopt a semi-sedentary way of life following their settlement in the central Valun valley. Learning how to till the soil and domesticating horses, an cattle of the area, first as animals of burden, as well as developing a simple alphabet and adopting  more complex religious beliefs based on ancestor worship and consolidating a simple pantheon of of which Ostan the All-Father (father of man and conqueror of the Gods) reigned supreme. 100 years ago the Conni empire, a western people, conquered a majority of the Estland Plains using their superior weapons made from bronze. The Durmani only submitted after most of the other Esti had been pacified becoming the only one of the tribes to maintain some degree of autonomy while the rest of the region was parcelled out to a Conni troops. With the conni came a new religion that was pushed heavily on the subjugated Esti with most of the tribes that bordered the onni homeland adopting the new religion while Durma and the other Esti tribes farther east resisted the new religion clinging the old faith of the All-Father. Despite tensions with their overlord Durma grow quickly thanks to the newly established trade routes with Conni given its proximity to the large mineral deposits. With the Durmani becoming well-known for their metal workers, and for caliber of the troops they sent to serve their Conni Masters. The Durmani would eventually develop horse riding and iron metal working as the city grew with other esti were brought in as unskilled labour and Conni filled the role of merchants within the city, allowing the Durmani to develop their growing skills. Tensions between the Conni and Durmani broke into an all out rebellion after the Conni massacred pilgrims to one of the holy sites of the old faith in the Eastern Plains. Odo the new King of the Durmani managed to put kick out the local conni garrison and establish control over the immidiate area around Valun purging many of the now unprotected (more to be added later)

  • Nation Description and History: While a Proto-Irian culture has existed among others in this greater coastal region for centuries, the first true Irian civilization emerged rather recently on the Thrydacian peninsula. Characterized by bronzeworking, small city-states and localized pantheons, the Irian culture is still primitive and developing. Its people are warlike and sometimes migratory when seasons are rough, but are gradually becoming more settled as circumstances in the area improve. They depend on trade and commerce for important resources, and as such have developed strong mercantile and maritime traditions. Other traditions flourish: Irian pottery is known for its superior quality and intricate painted designs, while Irian stoneworks and architecture are considered some of the best in the region. Although the heart of the civilization is located on the mainland peninsula, there are numerous islands in the surrounding sea (known to Irians as the Adseia) which have come under the influence of their culture. Further inland, the people are more barbarous and the climate is less suited to permanent settlement. Still, these inland people share many aspects of society with the coastal Irians. In central Thrydacia lies Mount Cambor, where the gods are said to originate from. In the distant past, this mountain has more than once annihilated whole villages with its fiery breath, but now it smoulders peacefully beside the shores of Lake Mareum. The most important city of the Irian civilization is called Aigei, and it is located on the banks of the Hecis, a large river that runs from the highlands to the Adseia.
