Also, I suppose we'll be having a pretty in depth discussion(s) about history and backstory before we start?
ALSO (hahahaha), since you're adding countries to the map, I don't want that bit of mainland land that was a part of that map, just the island-y parts.
Question (so many posts from me, I know). If this was an empire largely like the Roman Empire (which is an assumption I've made) were there any invaders/barbarian like people that invaded to help bring about the collapse? And were there any regions that never were a part of the empire? Because empires tend not to be self sufficient so I imagine they'd be trading with other nations. I think that would play an important part of how I want to create my nation.
Um, I'm new to this website but i want to try this out. how do you take a picture of a part of the map?
@Titanic, you can either save the image, cut it up on paint and re-post it. Or if you'd rather you can use an application like screensnapr to take a cropped screenshot of the image and post it back. (Also, I'll be doing my nation shortly)

Still a WIP, obviously, but I figure I'll get what I have up. If only to claim my spot.

Nation Name:
The River Kingdom of Kant
Demonym:
Kantau
People/s:
92% Kantau (27% Kantau, 27% Tawau, 24% Nitteau, 22% Akau), 8% Other
Population Scale/Nation Size:
Medium: 360,000
Government:
Kant is composed of the 4 kingdoms of Kant, Taw, Nitte, and Ak. The ruler of Kant takes both the title of King/Queen of Kant as well as the title of River King/Queen, with the Kings/Queens of Taw, Nitte, and Ak all swearing their loyalty and allegiance to them. The Kings/Queens all have near absolute authority within their own realms, with the River King/Queen rarely interfering with the affairs of the individual kingdoms unless it effects the entirety of the nation. The day-to-day rule, however, is left up to the Council of Five, a group of five people appointed by the King/Queen for the express purpose of dealing with day-to-day rule.
People of Importance:
River Queen Mata II; King Awam IX of Taw; King Nonu I of Nitte; Queen Machki III of Ak
Capital:
The capital of Kant is the great city of Mother's End, located at the mouth of the River Kant that runs through the River Kingdom. It is a major port in addition to being highly defensible owing to the massive stone walls built all around the city. It houses the Royal Palace as well as the largest temple to the Great Mother.
Settlements:
Actual cities are rare in Kant, with only a handful of them existing; most of which serve as the capital for one of the kingdoms. Structures are predominantly built of wood, though the more important structures in the cities are usually made of stone. And while actual cities are rare, there are numerous small villages and towns located all throughout the nation.
Nation Description:
Kant as a single unified entity goes back to only slightly after the fall of Ta'hamurg, however the culture and traditions of the Kantau people predate that empire by millennia. When Ta'hamurg came the Kantau people were fractured and broken politically, connected only through culture and religion. As a result of this disunity, as well as some Kantau leaders deciding to peacefully submit to Ta'hamurg, the Kantau were quickly and easily brought under the control of that great empire. However, holding onto that control was nowhere near as simple. The Kantau refused to bow down to the God of Ta'hamurg, they acknowledged his existence, but he was a foreign God and they would not forsake their Mother. Strife was constant in the region as Ta'hamurg strove to control and rein in the unruly Kantau, but despite their best efforts there was always pockets of resistance against them. Eventually, however, one of the Hands of the Mother declared that the Great Mother and the God of Ta'hamurg were one in the same, and that all the bloodshed over the years had been unnecessary. This was, however, after the other three Hands had mysteriously perished. While this didn't quite solve the issue, the unrest and violence did begin to decline, as the Hands of the Mother were considered the closest beings to the Great Mother. But with the start of Ta'hamurg's decline, the conflict resumed. This was a direct result of it coming to light that the remaining Hand of the Mother, the same one who'd declared that the Great Mother was the same being as Ta'hamurg's God, had lost his ability to perform magic. Most saw this as a result of the Great Mother forsaking him, and that his declaration was a false one. And so he was drowned by his Acolyte, who was a fervent zealot and still had the magical abilities that were taught to him. The Acolyte then assumed the mantle of Hand of the Mother, taking four Acolytes instead of just one so that when he passed there would once again be four Hands of the Mother. And it was this Hand who lead the revolt against Ta'hamurg, rallying the support of the masses of Kantau and eventually kicking out the occupiers who were unable to put up an adequate defense due to the fact that Ta'hamurg was crumbling. But the Hand didn't take power for himself, instead he arrived in front of his amassed followers in Mother's End on the day of their victory and presented an infant to them. The infant was an orphan, a child born to unknown parents, who the Hand claimed he had seen in a vision from the Great Mother and that this child was to be crowned River King upon them reaching the age of 15. True to his word, the Hand kept the child safe as he grew older and upon his 15th birthday had him crowned River King and ruler of all of Kant. Though while he ruled over the River Kingdom and the Kingdom of Kant, the other three Kingdoms had been given to the Hand's most loyal supporters as rewards for their loyalty. And in 1,000 years since the fall of Ta'hamurg, the Kantau have grown a reputation as a peaceful people. They do not care for expansion and instead care only for holding onto the traditional lands of the Kantau. But though they are a peaceful people, they still maintain an army and will fight viciously against anyone who would try to conquer them. While the scars of the Ta'hamurg occupation have healed, the first River King made an oath that the Kantau would never again bow down to a foreign power ever again and the River Kings and Queens since have all made this oath.
Religion:
The Kantau believe in and worship the Great Mother, the Goddess who is considered to be the mother of the Kantau and who represents the River Kant. As a result the river is considered to be the most sacred and holy thing to the Kantau. Worship of the Great Mother takes place either in temples devoted to her or within the shallows of the river itself, and is overseen by the Riversingers. Riversingers are the priests and priestesses of the Kantau faith, who take vows of celibacy and abstinence and devote their lives and existence to the Great Mother. It is also worth noting that the Kantau do not necessarily disbelieve in the Gods and Goddesses of other peoples, but they put the Great Mother above all others.
Flora & Fauna:
Kant is dominated by temperate forests, with the strip on the southern coast below the mountains being considered temperate rainforest. The river is host to a large amount of life, with numerous species of fish, eels, crabs, birds, amphibians, and even river dolphins making their home there.
Magic:
The only magic in Kant is that which is used by the Hands of the Mother, the four High Priests of the Kantau faith. They are the most faithful and devout of the Riversingers, and it is their intense devotion and faith in the Great Mother that they draw upon in order to utilize their magic. The secrets of Kantau magic are known only to the Hands of the Mother, though the acolytes that each take in and teach to take their place know some of the secrets as well.
Tech:
The technology of Kant could be compared to late medieval times, though with some Renaissance-era weaponry.
Ambitions:
Kant is generally seen as a peaceful land, content with the land they have and tolerant of other faiths so long as they do not deny the existence of the Great Mother.
Economy
Imports:
Steel, bronze, stone, precious metals
Exports:
Fish, lumber, crops, fabrics, dyes
Military
Army Size:
18,000 (5%)
Regular troops:
The main units of the Kantau military are formations of pikemen supported by musketmen. Neither wear much armour, with only leather bracers, greaves, and torso armour.
Navy:
The military ships of the Kantau are predominantly galleys and longships. They are generally not ships one would use on the open ocean, instead preferring to hug the coast and sail up rivers.

I reposted my sheet here, I took my sheet off the first page, purely because there were so many images and sheets already just so the first page wouldn't be so cluttered.
Nation Sheet
Location:
Flag:
Nation Name: Avalaysia
Demonym: Laysians
People/s: 80% Laysians, 20% foreigners
Population Scale/Nation Size: 358,823
Government: Matriarchal Council
People of Importance: Matriarch Of the Council
Council Woman of Magical Affairs
Leader of the Nation’s Military
Leader of Religion.
Lady Malisa Vargas Head of Trade
Lady Yansa Uvar Head of Mining
Lady Kani Poso Mistress of Velvet
Capital: The Aegis
Settlements: Buildings of importance are built with stone extremely well crafted and beautiful inside, some better off folks have stone structures but most homes and business are made with wood.
Nation Description: The Nation of Avalaysia is very female dominant men taking the role of being subservient and they are used in combat and laboring roles. They are also allowed to marry, but only if a woman asks them. Mostly women marry each other only using men for purposes of having children. Their military is fierce and works in small skilled groups of warriors. A fort can usually be found being manned by a total of 2000 troops. (This does not include slaves.). They are all very religious and worship daily fervently. They have many that perform “excursions” where they go to capture foreign populace to use as slaves, it doesn’t matter if they are male of female if they are not Avalaysia they are a slave.
Religion: They worship one Goddess, Aztea The All Mother, she is worship regularly three times a day at dawn, noon, and dusk by pray to the east. They also have one day a year called “The Day of Chaos.” On this day all people let loose doing whatever lust takes them, whether drink, sex, and in sanctioned places murder. This day is ended with a human sacrifice in every village and city by beheading a virgin male coming of age on that day.
Flora & Fauna: Timber trees exist in the mountains that their nation is centered around, they also have many mines carrying many different ores within them. The plains are filled with grass that cannot be gotten rid of no matter what it grows back overnight therefore it is impossible to grow fields of wheat, the only way they have found to get rid of the plants is to pave over the grass. This is helpful though as there are large herds of bovine that roam the lands that almost seem limitless meaning meat is never in question of being needed. Creatures exist in the mountains that are always a danger, Great yetis attack mining camps when they can though mining camps have become well guarded. Ettins also exist in the mountains though they keep to themselves due to their populace being cut down by the laysians.
Magic: The magic of the nation is used by sacrificing the life force of slaves. This is typically why the Laysians have some many excursions to capture slaves.
Tech: Crossbows and plate armor. Though the plate armor has been restricted mostly to the making of
Ambitions: It is expansionistic, but also knows it’s boundries and seeks to capitalize power before it moves to take over anything. (They also perform raids on neighboring and far away lands for slaves.)
Economy
Imports: Sugar, Wheat, Vegetables, Slaves, fruits, Salt
Exports: Silver, Iron Ore, Slaves, Velvet, bronze, beef, cattle
Military
Army Size: 30,023
Regular troops:
Spear Units: They wear breastplates usually made of leather (officers in iron or bronze) wooden bucklers and leather skirts they carry ten foot spears used for holding off enemy units and calvary, also they carry short swords. This consists of both men and women.
Sword Units: These are the close combat fighters, carrying Gladius and shields made of bronze. They typically wear iron breastplates and leather skirts. Also both male and female.
Archers: These wear a jacket of overlapping metal discs over a thick quilted outfit. They are armed with yew longbows. (male and female.)
Crossbow Units: They wear leather armor and carry yew crossbows. (Male and Female.)
Calvary: These units are the most prized of combat units, they wear bronze breastplates leather skirts and carry lances and longswords as well as bronze shield. (They are only female.)
Battle Mages: These women go into combat wielding incredibly destructive magic, each of them having a slave on a leash drawing the life power from their body to fuel their powers. They simply wear leather pleated skirts due to the fact that armor can dampen their magical powers. This leaves them very vunerable if anyone can get close enough. (Females Only.) (there are only 2 of these mages besides the arch Magus. One of them resides at Fort Ish, the other resides at The Velvet port while the Arch Magus resides in The Aegis.)
Ballista: These are siege weapons usually manned by four people of either gender. (There is also usually a ballista on Merchant ships.)
Catapaults: These are siege weapons usually manned by four people and guarded by ten. All of either gender.
Navy: They have slave ships, light fast ships that are used to arrive on a shore capture members of whatever local populace and then quickly leave. The warriors on these ships are usually former members of the military. They also have merchant ships that are protected by units of the nation’s military.(including a ballista)

Eranor would not like the choice of government that Avalaysia has chosen.
I'm fairly certain that we are still allowing people to join, yes, but check with Golem.
Also, since this is explicitly an OOC, maybe we'll end up posting OOCs in the IC sub-thread of this thread (Don't do it yet though).
Additionally, I'm about to start incrementally updating my NS as soon as I get off my phone and onto a computer.

It holds the Great Hall which hosts the council meetings and the ruins of Urbem a mortuis (The City of the Dead) which was the site of the biggest battle in the Exile War.
Settlements: Myra's architecture has a Roman-style buildings made mainly from marble, Taria use Greek-style buildings that are similiar to the Myra buildings also built from sandstone, bricks, mud, Joka architecture is Chinese-style and made mainly from wood and stone, and Yolah architecture borrows from the other three islands and beyond. Every building is unique.
Nation Description: The islands had each been ruled by kings since the fall of the empire. There was peace for hundred of years, until the Exile War. It all started with the rise of the Twin kings of Yolah. Quickly taking control of the island, they forced most of the population into joining the army. They tested and caused the deaths of hundreds of citizens by forcing magic power into their bodies. With the immense increase in military might, the kings of Myra and Taria formed a pact where they would defend each other if Yolah attacked. Yolah did attack but not Myra or Taria but the Holy Island of Joka. Myra and Taria entered the war after the holy temple in the capital of Joka was burned, This quickly lead to the fall of Yolah and the Twins kings being exiled. The southern island is Myra, The easternmost island is Yolah, The north-western island is Taria, and the smallest island is Yolah. Each of the islands have their own government but Myra provides the military might that protects the island nation, Taria controls most of the income flowing into the nation, Joka is the homeland of the main religion of the island but also holds the most knowledge in the nation, also knowing most about the outside world. Yolah has nothing, it just minds it own business and doesn't interfere with anything.
Religion: We worship God, Our god is just called God. He does not control anything but decide if we go to a peaceful afterlife or not. He is worshiped twice a day, each at 12:00. Holidays and the general happiness of people are ways to honor God.
Flora & Fauna: Ships often site what we call, Lievations. Which are scaly serpent like creatures ranging in size. They are known to be friendly but a few of the old ones guard their territories furiously. A rare type of fish that only lives in Lievation territory is also in myration territory. Somehow the size of the fish is based on how aggressive the Lievation is. Called Kain
Magic: Magic is used rarely and mainly only by healers of Myra. Combat magic was outlawed after the Exile war but a small force of 80 is kept trained in it if a war ever arises.
Tech: Some Late Middle Age-Renaissance Era tech
Ambitions: We seek to gain knowledge whether through trade or war, but mostly trade.
Economy
Imports: Jade, Iron, Wood, Food(fruit, vegetables, and beef/chicken/pork) and Knowledge/Technology/Art.
Exports: Fish(Kain and others), Building Materials, Stone, and salt.
Military
Army Size: 14,000 troops (Mainly in Navy)
Regular troops: Swordsmen and riflemen
Navy: Our military strength is focused mainly on the navy, but we have few actual military ships. Many are just merchant ships armed with cannons.

That's cool. And if I were you I wouldn't want to go too far inland, because those mountains are a hell of a boost to the defense of your nation. Who in their right mind wants to cross those things??
But for that small amount of land that is an uber large population. That's about my population size, if you want to compare, though you should look at other people's to get an idea...
