[CHAR] Nation Simulation RP: Hel

[reesetelford9]

Nation Name: Duchy of Vsardowen
Government Type: Absolute Monarchy
Culture: A very well respected culture that normally gets the term posh thrown at it. Vsarish clothes normally are plain and simple, kilts replacing pants as the default apparel from below the waist instead of more common pants. Tunics made from several fabrics are common for both men and women. Very deep seated respect for elders and the youth with middle age seen as the "peace" time of a persons life. A time for rest and relaxation. They have a happy and peaceful outlook on life but don't shy away from war.
History: The area was normally shunned from civilization and was thought to be a wasteland. No one explored the zone and thus had no idea of the many insanely pale skinned tribes who thrived in the region and made their homes in caves. After a while one of the tribes began to dominate the area and formed the land that stands there today.
National Relations: Unknown currently
National Faith: None
Military Description: A rag tag group of barbarians make up this nations army. With short footman combat lances being a favorite weapon. A handguard that would be more common on a jousting lance protects the mans hand as he wields this short sword length weapon. A light plate is draped over the troops. Metal sheets covering the chest, shoulders, and shins with chainmail covering any other exposed flesh.
Other special mentions: The Duke has a homosexual controversy surrounding himself

Nation Name: Djalda
Government: Totalitarian
Culture: The culture of Djalda is heavily monitored and controlled by the Ministry of Media. Everything is monitored so as to ensure maximum compliance of the populace. Anything anti-government is quickly and harshly eradicated from public record.
The schools are run by the Ministry of Intelligence, who also handle espionage, and reeducation of dissidents.
The Ministry of Peace secures all police and military actions. They are swift, brutal, and unyielding. They are and have been at war with Odina for as long as anyone can remember.
The Ministry of Wealth is in charge of economic and business matters, debt handling and repossessions.
Finally, the Ministry of Wellbeing is in charge of the medicinal facilities, as well as rationing food and drink.
History: Djalda has a long, great history going back hundreds of years under the great and benevolent President Hjördis Falk. He has been a good leader, keeping the populace as happy as possible despite the horrible and unrelenting attacks from their aggressors in Odina. He alone brought the country into greatness and he alone shall bring it further into the light.
National Relations: At war with Odina. Otherwise, to be seen.
National Relgion: Religion has been outlawed. Practice of occult matters in punishable by reeducation.
Military Description: They have a strong police force that handles all measures within their borders as well as a large, active and advanced military. The Ministry of Wealth employs thousands in weapons manufacturing.
Place on Map (Clear detail of spot and or a posted image of location.)Southern tip of the peninsula to the east of the triangular sea near the center of the map.
Other special mentions: There is no such thing as Odina. Odina did exist at one point and they were at war, but Djadla was the aggressors and the Odinian was quickly wiped out. The original President Hjördis Falk died centuries ago and is now merely kept up as a figurehead by the Ministry of Media. The country is run by a council of the heads of each department. The state of war is upheld to maintain a firm grasp of power over the populace.

Name: Skaekslav Counties

Government Type: Serfdom Council ~ Multiple Lords in charge of their own hamlets

Culture: Citizens wear work clothing, accustomed to harsh labor. Nobles and Knights wear purple robes, and priests
commonly shave their heads. Every month is the celebration of the sun, signaling the beginning of summer, when the sun appears most.

History: Descendants of stragglers who survived the fall of the northern kingdoms and settled down in a land of swamps and mires. Other than that, multiple hamlets have their own calls for celebration.

National Relations: Minor Isolation

National Religion: Each hamlet has belief in their own Pagans, who are believed to be powerful spirits coming from black ponds of the mire. Belief isn't enforced, yet they are commonly looked to for strength and guidance

Military Description: Each lord has about 2,000-3,000 soldiers, for war against each other. Should war with a much larger country become an issue, they will combine their forces, and an elected Lord will take the helm of the combined army, but the forces are still their lord's, and can be pulled away should their lord have good reason.

Soldiers wear hard leather armor, and the best available weapons are made of copper. Cavalry uses adaptable horses who grew in the wild swamps, and are best suited for any terrain. Archers are a relatively unexplored area, as most of their ranged combat is just throwing whatever you find on the ground. Each hamlet also has around 50 knights, with exceptional training and equipment to other soldiers.

Location on Map: Lower South, the whole area above the long strip of land at the very bottom

Other Special Mentions: The swamps and mires water is extremely deadly, and can dissolve a human to flesh and bones within minutes. Those who survive are driven mad, leading to nomadic psychotic bandits.

@wxps350Thank you for that. Greatly appreciated.

Nation Name: The Holy Empire Of The Priesthood.
Government Type: Theocracy.
Culture: The Empire has a very strong WH40k Imperial Empire feel to it. with a mild poverty almost all citizens are blind (metaphorically) and overzealous. with a Massive Faith in the God-Priests

When a Citizen is born they're future will be decided for them. their hair will be permanently dyed to match the Caste

Priesthood (Male with White hair only). these are who the people over zealously worship. this caste makes up the entire Church and Command.
Militarium (Female with Red Hair Only). This is the Empire's Military. more on that later.
Engineerium (Female With Blonde Hair Only). this is the Empire's engineers, workers, Architects. so and so. they oftenly work with the Militarium to build fortifications.
Currencium (Male. Blonde Hair Only). This is the Empire's Trade network. they are almost completely controlled by the Priesthood.
Scienium (Male with Purple Hair only). contrary to popular belief this is the Empire's thinkers, writers, Philosophers. and scientists. however most of their work tends to be highly censored with lots of Members disappearing suddenly at night.
Agriculturum (Women with green hair only). These are the Farmers. 'nuff said.
Sevantum (Women with Black Hair only). This is a small caste dedicated to the confort of the Priesthood.
their is many many more castes. but this will take forever.

Oftenly their will be entire cities dedicated to one caste.

with many members being a tad bit too religious oftenly people are declared heretics. Heretics are Revolutionists, Atheists, or just anyone who Seems suspicious.

Propaganda is extremely heavy also. with entire books being re-written to match what the Priesthood thinks is "Correct".

However due to the incredibly enforced caste system most of The Empire's Citizens tend to be Gay or Lesbian. with Straight people being the Minority. basically think of today flipped upside down.

History: a couple centuries ago their used to be a Tribe that followed this belief however the Belief was much more Casual than now. the Tribe than conquered their surrounding Rivals and Grew in power largely. they used to be called The Federation.

And than the Caste system was banned starting a Revolution that almost destoryed the Entire Nation. It ended with the Priesthood winning. that is a big summary of The Empire's History.
National Relations: The Duchy Of Vsardowen: They have no idea who they are yet.
Djalda: The Entire Empire fanatically hates this nation due to them banning their religion. The Empire is largely hostile to this nation and it is quite clear a war is soon.
Skaekslav Countries: The Empire is slightly more lenient with them. oftenly the Empire trades with them and constantly tries to convince them to join the Empire as a separate faction

National Faith: The Holy Priesthood. This is a cult of personality that the Priesthood caste are angels sent from the Heavens above.
All other Religions are banned as well as Atheism. Practice of a religion other Then worship of of the All Mighty and holy Priesthood is punished with Death Via Being burnt alive.

Military Description: The Empire's Military consists of a Extremely Highly trained All-female Army Caste known as the Militarium. the Militarium consists of
5000 Spearmen.
30000 Archers
1000 Seige Weapons and Artillery..
10000 Crossbowmen

Their Military oftenly fights by having long incredibly defended Lines Of Spearmen and vast Hordes of Archers.

their primary tactic is for the Spearmen to Defend the archers while Archers Lay waste to The Opponents with big clouds of arrows large enough to Block out the sun with catapults launching bottles full of a highly flammable liquid known as simply "The Fury" or their long name "The Priest's Fury".

Crossbowmen only guard Cities.
Other special mentions: none.

Nation Name:
Sawlian Empire

Government type:
Dictatorship

Culture:
While having no religious affiliation that does not mean that this nation doesn't have a good culture going for it. They have a very big bushido system that is followed to death, similar to the Japanese bushido. No one is allowed to slander their government in any shape or form, it is often met with prison or sometimes death. The citizen's have their rights but only to a certain extent, other nations may see the citizens as oppressed yet the citizens live happy lives. All citizens are required to serve a minimum of one-year within the ages of 18-50, if not then punishment by banishment will ensue. They see everyone as equal if they prove themselves, even other people in other nations.

History:
Formed from several different clans who were united from a military campaign led by the first dictator of Sawl. It was a twelve year campaign that lead their lands to be known as the Warring lands due to the nonstop death. Eventually it came to an end when they finished the fighting. Now they aim to rebuild from the events and restore their rightful rule over their lands.

National Relations:
Many see Sawl as nothing more than constant savages who do nothing but make war on one another but they are mainly neutral with everybody.

National Faith:
Religion is typically shunned in this society but they allow it if the person so chooses.

Military Description:
The military is filled with those who wear a large metal armor which is adorned in decoration that describes one's self. There are plenty of archers to do a lot of damage, they typically use long bows and wear leather armor and higher ranking archers have metal put into their leather armor. Calvary is typically unused but they still have Calvary. However, their best unit is their assassins who are very stealthy and deadly with swords and throwing knives. The military has been known to use vast amounts of smoke bombs on their enemies to blind them.

Location on Map:
The western most island, east of the larger peninsula to the north a over most of the other nations.

Other special Mentions:
They embark on a lot of trade, leading their economy to be pretty good
