Underground Military Research Facility
Medical Studies Wing - Prosthetic Exercise Section
Several days had passed since General Hoj had gotten his prosthetic arm. It had been a good few days, the chitanite fist was very intimidating. After getting annoyed in a recent meeting Hoj had crushed a metal cup with his new hand which had spawned some rumors. Rumors about General Hoj metal fist were popular over some civilian radio channels but were no real ways to prove the rumor. Walking up with a camera to snap a picture of General would easily get someone a broken arm.
General Hoj was in a exercise room within the facility along with the good doctor. Buvi sat on a bench with a clipboard and generals jacket next to her. Currently was just asking questions as Hoj operated one of the exercise machines.

Buvi "No problems? Any issues?"
Hoj "Well it does take some to get used to. Just a little weird to have no feeling."
Buvi "Feeling? Silly, that technology is simply beyond our scope. I am in charge of progress, now back to questions."

Simple excercises to ensure that the new arm was working correctly and the general would need to keep up his physical fitness so arm never gets too much stronger then his natural arm. Accidents could occur if Hoj were to overestimate his strength if he were to rely on mechanical arm entirely.

Medical Studies Wing - Genetic Study Section
In another section of medical studies wing of facility was those who experimented and studied the dna of tari. A advantage to tari hatching from eggs were one could open up the eggs to apply chemicals to change what genes expressed themselves then observe how that effected development. However was a rule that none were allowed to break and that was hatching experimented on eggs was prohibited. A odd rule however put in place because the deformed offspring would be priest caste but artificial.

Fes "Rules are simply that rules. for true progress I will simply change these rules."
Guv "Sir I support your goals to progress."
Fes "Good, Guv you have been a great assistant. Now I make history!"

The rivalry between the two branches of medical studies wing of facility had been a long term rivalry. Recently though the prosthetic department had been gaining a lot more ground. Head of genetic study department Doctor Fes a elderly flat faced Tari that had turned 137 recently. Despite his age Fes was full of energy and had brought his loyal assistant Guve also a flat face to a section of facility that was still mine.

Fes "The first experiment towards a new age! You hear that Guve? I will be the greatest scientific mind of our age!"
Guv "Of course sir."

The section of mine yet to be expanded to had a lot of equipment moved over. Doctor Fes had taken several treated eggs to experiment with trying to create a midpoint between the flat face and long face tari. Naturally flat face genetics were very dominant so would never see any long face traits show in offspring normally except for the deformed of priest caste. By studying different chemical effect on gene expression Fes had created a batch of three eggs that are if his research holds true create a in between of flat face and long face.

Fes "The future will be mine!"
Guv "I have taken all precautions sir so we are not caught."
Fes "Good, I would not like to be under house arrest... again."

Orbital Station Kor-1
Radios had been buzzing aboard the now old orbital station Kor-1. Chief Scientist Yor was busy packing up research data into contains to load onto the reentry capsule that will launch from the old metal coffin of a station.

Grik "Are we to vent the atmosphere after getting into reentry capsule?"
Yor "No, just taking the data of research with us."
Grik "Though orders are to abandon the station."
Yor "Correct though were to ensure equipment to be set on it to act as simply radio signal booster."
Grik "A waste of equipment."
Yor "Station old, not many useful experiments but our data on chitanite in space will prove useful."

Capital City
The capital city had been abuze with activity after deciphering what the data from orbital station and news of PRC formation reached the Union of Kor. Outside the city beyond the slums stood a tall missle looking craft. The Union of Kor saw the events last month as signaling it was time for the tari to capture rightful place in the stars. A room within palace set up for broadcasting stood High King Van'kor who was speaking to two dozen tari in spacesuits shown on a screen off to side. Far off in a building where rocket was set up the two dozen tari ready to go into space looked upon image of the High King in full ceremonial garbe. A golden crown with many precious jewels upon Van'kor head while also in view elaborate jacket with gems interwieved along with gold and a flowing purple cape.

Van'kor "You twenty four are to show the determination and strength of the tari! You were chosen from birth to be trained for
this honor. It is true that you all will die but your names will live on in tari history. You twenty four shall become
legends!"

The crowd of twenty four tari would cheer from the praise they got. It was no secret that Union of Kor would sacrifice many to just push boundries of science when they seeked advancement. These twenty four tari construction workers all were trained to work in space and would ride the prepared rocket into space. The Union of Kor desired a station to construct a large modular station for many years but always kept public ambitions for space quiet. Rocket set to launch into space was one of a set of six across Union of Kor in project called Pillar. Project Pillar woud first start with a crew rocket containing a fission reactor for the station and the crew along with six months of supplies for them. The five other companion rockets were set up to launch in sequence over the course of month as the payloads of the five were the parts to construct the central pillar. Once in space the supply rockets loads would be tethered to reactor. After six months a resupply rocket would be shot up with more supplies meant for the workers. Project Pillar was with zero plans to ever retrieve the workers, they were to die in space after finishing the central pillar of station within a year. The workers were to be worked to deaths yet they still cheered as High King would salute them and screen cut off.

Van'kor "I will be returning to my office now, keep the broadcast equipment set up just encase. I wish to watch the
launch from a view."

High King Van'kor would unbutton his ceremonial jacket with attached cape tossing it aside then would set crown upon desk. He would go to get his bottle of drink and just drank directly from the bottle as he went to look out his window. It was a big gamble how the other species would see tari suddenly pushing a large amount of resources into space. It would be clear to other countries that the tari had to of been stockpiling the resources for this since at least the Void War if not longer. If this failed the High King would of wasted enough Union of Kor resources that it would take years to build up the materials to attempt this again if it could be attempted again by the tari. Overpopulation and large scale povery in lower castes had been ignored to focus on preparing for this day. Then was matter of phase two, construction of ring segments on surface that would be sent up at later date to form a habitatal ring that rotates around pillar. Union of Kor simply lacked the industrial might and resources to produce the ring segments quickly, would take a decade at best but estimates currently gave even longer. The industrial might of the tari was not equipped to handle this undertaking alone without risking a end to the 120 year long streak of internal peace. High Van'kor would watch the rocket in distance shoot into sky.

Van'kor "A lot of work ahead trying to get more trade in motion... heh... good thing I have officials for that. "

After a long swig of bottle Van'kor would walk back to his desk and picked up his phone. Normal procedure wouldn't be fast enough so he would expedite the process of informing officals to get trade deals by skipping some steps. Normally this was a process of physical letters being sent out but that would take several days.

Underground Military Research Facility
Deep underground in a retrofit mine was the heart of tari government approved research. The mine was actually underneath the capital city of Union of Kor. Before the city had been turned into capital it had the largest and deepest mine ever dug by the tari. Deep inside the retrofit mine a tari general in full uniform along with several guards would step out of elevator. The guards would go to head to a door labeled barracks to check in for new shift while general walked to a security door. Two guards stationed at the door would salute the general. General Hoj had been highest ranking officer in Union of Kor army for fifty years. The long faced tari walked with a obvious limp having a prosthetic leg replacement and was missing his entire left arm, Hoj did not have a prosthetic instead leaving the sleeve empty.

Hoj "Where did I put it..."

General Hoj would check his pockets until he found a card which he would slide through security lock. After a moment the door would beep opening up. He would walk into a chamber and door would close before spraying the chamber causing the general to cough.

Hoj "Ancestors... I'll never get used to that."

As the general exited out into hallway a second set of guards would salute him. General Hoj would return the salute. Tari military salute being beat chest once with a closed fist then extend the fist outward at a slight angle. The general would follow the path labeled 'medical studies' where the majority of modern tari prosthetics and other medical advancement had come out of in last thirty years. A door would open and general would step into a lab.

Buvi "Ah! General Hoj, right on time for your appointment."

Doctor Buvi head of research for the medical studies wing of research facility. She was a long faced tari that was only seventy two years old and lead developer of the current artifical heart that has been undergoing trials for last decade. Her white lab coat had various grease stains on it. The lab looked far from a medical one with mechanical tools and equipment just everywhere. She would rise up from her chair going to start unbuttoning the generals jacket.

Hoj "Before you ask, has been no irritants and I have done best to keep it dry."
Buvi "Good good, this prototype advanced chitanite socket is the next breakthrough in prosthetics I tell you. Today Hoj you
will walk out with two arms! Or tomorrow depending on how long it takes to callibrate the arm. Maybe longer!"

General Hoj would let out a sigh as jacket came off revealing heavy bandaging over where his left shoulder would be. It had been almost around fourty years since he had lost his arm and using his influence had got himself into trial for new experimental prosthetic. For better part of three years he had undergone a dozen surgeries to reinforce his spine with chitanite for what was to come. The spinal surgery having originally been created solely to fix broken back of a tari when it was beyond how it could heal naturally. As Doctor Buvi would use scissors to cut away the bandages the left shoulder of Hoj was revealed, it was a rather complex socket where a shoulder should be. Truth be told Hoj had only just met the requirements for the surgery as he luckily had decided to keep his left shoulder back when doctors amputated his mangled arm.

Buvi "Clean? Yes it is clean, good. No swelling around the socket, very good. Hoj you are going to be the first! The fools
studying eggs miss the point, chitanite is strength of the tari. Now onto the table, go go."
Hoj "Normally I wouldn't put up with being bossed around."

Doctor Buvi would let out a laugh then jumped into her chair turning to grab controls. A mechanical arm would lift up a rather clean looking prosthetic arm. Was little attempt to make it pass for realsitic as the sleek white plastic covers over more delicate mechanical parts gave a very robotic feeling. One of a kind constructed for General Hoj. Buvi would guide arm into position then in a swift motion shot the arm into socket, a mechanical clang as the arm locked into socket. A few curses escaped Hoj then the doctor got up from her chair.

Buvi "Up! Up up. Need you sitting up for calibrations."
Hoj "Ugh... you didn't say it would hurt."
Buvi "Vibrations were likely to bother bones when prosthetic was attached but did not know. Didn't want to say so would get a
geninune response."
Hoj "...anyway lets get this over with."
Buvi "First you get my gift?"
Hoj "Jacket pocket, really need to get out more."

Hoj sat up with a grunt and looked at his arm, it felt odd to have so much weight on one side. Meanwhile the doctor was quickly checking the generals jacket pockets until she found her prize, a pack of cigs. She laughed and did a little jump before falling into her chair and spinning in chair.

Buvi "Glorious! They don't let doctors take these into the facility."

The general would let out a grunt indicating he wanted to get on with it. Doctor Buvi nodded taking a cig from pack and lighting it. After taking a long drag she rolled chair over to the general and popped bicep cover to plug in several wires then rolled back to a computer screen.

Buvi "Now... the boring work begins. Act like your moving your left arm."
Hoj "Nothing is happening."
Buvi "No no! Visualize yourself moving the arm you lost. I need your nerves to send singals to receptors in the socket so they
activate motors in your new arm."
Hoj "Oh..."
Buvi "Yes! Like that, now through trial and error we are to calibrate each receptor."
Hoj "Doesn't sound like it will take long."
Buvi "Hahaha! With readings now your stuck with me for next few days. The amount of calibrations this will take will be... a
lot. Your prototype arm and socket is two to five years down the line from actually being something regulars get."

Was a sigh that came from general as the two began to work. General would move his prosthetic arm then doctor would work on computer and repeat that. With how the arm would move indicated that the good doctor and general would be stuck together for a while. For a long time tari had used chitanite fused to bone to act as a anchor for socket to lock in simple prosthetics though the prototype Buvi has been working on was one of a kind.

Union of Kor
Slums Outside A City
It was inside a rowdy slum bar. The place was just packed with tari workers enjoying themselves after a hard days work. A jukebox like device was blaring music and a crowd was gathered around a tube television watching a sporting match where two tari were punching each other. The bartender a flat face sporting a eye patch and a cheap prosthetic claw to replace his hand was busy cleaning a glass when his phone would ring. He would go to pick up the phone then quickly dropped it.

Bartender Bui "Oi! Jar! Cut the music! An tell those watching big screen quite down!"

The bartender would duck down to grab a radio of questionable origin. It looked like it had been ripped out of a vehicle at one point. While the Bartender was busy fiddling with radio a tari wearing a tattered military jacket went to unplug the jukebox which caused a uproar from those listening.

Jar "Bui said to turn it off! Now shut up! You betting on the fight! Quiet too!"
Bui "Alright! Now that we can actually hear it. Got word that big broadcast. Looks to be conflict
erupting."

A group of tari in military jackets that all shared the same emblem, clearly from a mercenary company would cheer. The bartender would glare at them, shaking his claw hand at them.

Bui "Oi! I said quiet down! It's one."

The bar would grow quieter, was still background chatter but radio would crackle. Majority of tari still had radios instead of actual televisions so all important broadcasts were generally done on radio. After about a minute of static and Bui fiddling with radio some more a voice came on.

Tari Radio Voice "...thus the Union of Kor has decided to recognize the sovereignty of the People's
Republic of Cindorya. The Union of Kor acknowledgement of the PRC does not come with a change in
neutral stance, the Union of Kor will continue its neutral sta-"

Sound of radio would be drowned out by arguing that would erupt. Bartender shaking his head as he went to put the radio away and Jar would go to plug the jukebox back on. Bartender muttering a few curses under his breath.

Jar "Too bad, just a bore peace is. I long for the thrill of battle."
Bui "Jar your a idiot."
Jar "Hey! Just because I got a battery on my belt I got to keep charged. Doesn't-"
Bui "Idiot! Where you gonna find a plug to charge that in a war? Jar... your a lucky idiot,
government giving you that artificial heart to replace old one."
Jar "Ha! They paying me just to stay alive, some test about how long I'll live."
Bui "That reminds me... pay your tab or work it off!"

The bartender would chuck a mop at Jar who would go fetch a bucket and get to working off his tab. Reactions in general among the populace of the Union of Kor were mixed with the whole announcement though in general the most common denominator was a dislike for having a neutral stance. The world just was too peaceful, tari mercenaries had to settle for whatever work they could get. Despite having two wars within the 46 years, War of the Fangs in 2010 and Void War in 2034. Tari always bounced back hard from war losses though it also meant that Union of Kor had suffered rampant overpopulation.

The spoiler button is useful for compressing information. I think I shall also use it in future posts.

Void of Novira: Scramble for Interplanetary Colonization (Now Open)

<-Political / Ceremonial Flag
Name of Nation: Union of Kor
Nation Characteristics:
Government: Elective Monarchy
The Tari are ruled over by a High King who is elected into position by a council. Those eligable for becoming High King are the various Lords of the Union of Kor. The council is made up of various Lords, Mayors of city states within Union of Kor, and the High Priest of state religion. Powers granted to High King are a special unified army to enforce peace within the Union of Kor.
Land is ruled over by various Lords, Mayors, and the High Priest have own private armies which in past were used to war among themselves. Nowadays the private armies function as peace keepers/police/enforcers.
History: The current Union of Kor is the eight iteration of Union of Kor having collapsed seven times previously into civil war when a new High King could not be elected due to no majority winner. This Union of Kor was founded in 1864 and has not had a internal war between Lords since 1937. The Union of Kor only opened borders to trade in 1907 and kept a extremely neutral stance officially in world but would let mercenary companies be bought by anyone. The previous High King decided to side with the Aldabetan in the Void War but freely allowed mercenary companies to be bought by other side. Current High King elected after death of previous High King has a much more pro-Cindorayi views.
Culture: Tari have little value for life due to there biology and generally do not even value there own young before they reach mid-stage towards adulthood. Cannibalism is not uncommon in the poor of Union of Kor. The Tari have a flexible yet rigid caste system.
At bottom of caste are the workers who are bulk of population and generally do the manual labor jobs which are plentiful due to rigid hate of automation. Tari value strength and see unnecessary automation as lazy. Second tier of caste is warriors who preform all roles where combat is involved from police to soldiers. The warrior caste is the second largest and worker caste. The third and smallest caste are the priest case who are those born with defects. Tari view those that hatch with a defect such as blindness or physical deformity as special and they are taken in by the celibate priest caste. Final caste which is the gold caste who are rich merchants, and nobility. A Tari when they reach adulthood will go into worker caste where they can become rich merchants or can join the warrior caste. Only nobility of the gold caste and priest caste are rigid where they are never allowed to change caste.
The value in strength and little value for own lives causes the warrior caste to be used in brutal tactics involving just trying to drown enemies in sheer numbers. Once common wars within Union of Kor would suffer massive casualties as government troops are generally equipped poorly. The poor equipment resulting in many mercenary companies that work for highest pay so they can afford proper equipment.
Religion: Religion is still as it always has been for the Tari a very important part of government and culture. The religion of Tari is a form of ancestral worship where the dead are eaten so that spirit is trapped in living Tari. Priest caste are exempt from this cannibalism and instead are interned in elaborate crypts under temples.
Nation Location: South Eastern small island touching the glaciers.
Nation Initial Population:27,000,000
Species Name: Tari
Species Characteristics: Tari are divided up into two major ethnic groups. The stocky built flat faced and lighter built long faced Tari. As the name indicates flat faced Tari have a flat face which causes variety of respiratory issues and they possess three fingers with a thumb. Meanwhile the long faced Tari who have a long reptilian snout, large tails, ornamental horns, and two fingers with a thumb.
In general Tari are bipedal with two arms and tough hides covered in scales. The average natural lifespan of a Tari 120-160 years. Tari start out as a egg that hatches after two years then take average of 8-10 years to reach adulthood. A female Tari can lay a clutch of 3-6 eggs every year. It takes a newly hatched Tari 4-5 years to develop its brain for it to be sentient.
Despite the very reptillian appearance Tari are not cold blooded but they are not warm blooded. The blood of Tari is lukewarm blooded to fuel there rapid development into adults. Tari are hardy species that can live comfortably in a variety of environments though flat faced Tari respitory issues cause them to be less suited compared to long faced Tari. The only differences in Tari male and females is female long faced Tari lack horns and both ethnic groups have lighter colored males and darker colored females. Tari scales are all the same color and individuals can be browns, greens, grays, and very rare white.
Side Chosen in Void War:Aldabetan
Technological Level: Standard Modern Technology
The Union of Kor officially only has a handful of nuclear fission powered communication satellites. Most powerful Merchants and the largest Mercenary Companies though have there own private communication satellites. A two person unarmed space station powered by nuclear fission is the biggest space presence Tari have.
Space Presence: Very Tiny.
Special Resource: Chitanite
Chitanite is a organic derived metal. Through centuries of selective breeding the Chit have been bred to have a extremely metallic like hide. The metallic hide of Chit is harvested then through complex chemical purification and smelting process it is turned into Chitanite. Chitanite most unique property is medical application with it not being attacked by the immune system when implanted into the body. Beyond that unique property Chitanite it has a very high resistance against corrosion and shares many properties with steel such as strength.

January 2057
Union of Kor
Capital City
The capital city of the Union of Kor was built into the tundra where its towering walls dominated the horizon. City was shaped like a hexagon and streets were constructed in grid format. It was the most heavily defended city in the Union of Kor with anti-air defenses on roofs of almost every building and no building above six stories except the grand palace. In streets workers were cleaning up debris from celebration of the new year. The garbage from celebration was being just dumped outside city walls directly into slums that surrounded the city. Poor tari of the working caste were waiting for dumpings of garbage to strip for anything of use.

High King Van'Kor Ol sits in office as advisers go over reports. For the most part it is reports on food production, and trade. The years of peace after Void War had resulted in a surge of population numbers higher then expected with no internal conflicts to cull the excess population. Such a bother to have inherited from previous High King who died near end of Void War. A buzzer would ring on the High King desk and he waved away the advisers. After the advisers had left a very old male tari would wheel in, he a flat face had a breathing apparatus attached to his face.
Van'kor "It is good to see you Gol, I hope you have some good news?"
Gol "Depends... the... chitanite farm holders have agreed... to increase exports."
Van'kor "Good, the Union of Kor could use the increased trade. Though what is the bad news?"
Gol "The... export amount... increase is only seven... tons..."
Van'kor "Ancestors spit on them. Chitanite is our main export.... It will have to do, you are dismissed."
Gol would press a few buttons on chair wheeling himself out. Once alone High King Van'Kor would open a drawer on desk taking out a bottle and poured himself a small glass. The High King would then take glass to look outside window of palace. The High King was only one of a handful with a view outside walls of Capital City, but his was the best. Royal Palace of High Kings was simple yet efficient, a rectangle reinforced with clearly visible chitanite as a symbol of strength.
Van'kor: "Damn those farmers, they refuse to increase exports to acceptable numbers. Last thing I need though is to stir up internal conflicts like High Kings of the past."

Orbital Station Kor-1
Aboard the metal coffin of a station were two tari scientists relaxing after celebrations for the new year. Chief Scientist Yor and Assistant Scientist Grik. The Kor-1 had no windows, the only way for the two aboard to see outside were to put on eva suit or use cameras positioned around outside the ship. Inside the station was a bit of a mess with a empty bottle floating through air along with various tools.
Yor "Do the reports... my head is killing me."
Grik "Fine but you were one to not secure instruments."
Yor "I did not expect to get head hit by a wrench. Anything on the censors?"
Grik "Nothing... well we got readings from something but probably nothing but a anomaly."
Yor "Let those on ground deal with the data. Get on with experiment."
Grik "When the next inspection of outside must be done your going on EVA."
Yor *grumbles*
Grik would open a hatch to go into lab area of the station. The goal of the Kor-1 was to test the affects of zero gravity on chitanite. For almost a year now the two scientists had been carefully monitoring chitanite to see if space affected it at all. A rather boring task but the Union of Kor wanted to prove chitanite was just as good as steel in space. Both scientists found this research to be mostly a waste as the main use of chitanite was in medical field.

Happenings in Village of Scalo
The eclipse had passed and Caalo noticed a change in his father Chief Krascalo Vith. The older Alvith had lost the drive to rule over all Alvith and this would not do. Caalo had been groomed to one day lead and viewed as his father's inaction as weakness. However Caalo knew he was not the strongest in village and getting on track towards his destiny to rule would require manipulating others. One night Caalo would visit his father Chief Krascalo in secret.

"Great Chief Krascalo who blood flow in me. Must grow stronger, one village too few." Caalo spoke.
"No, Foolish... Great Serpent anger for ambition." Chief Krascalo spoke shaking his head.
"No! Great Chief strive for strength! Strength please Great Serpent! Must grow villages!" Caalo shouted out.
"Fool! How strength grow?" Chief Krascalo spoke gesturing at the night sky.
"Spread... I blood of great Chief flows. I Caalo found own village. Become Chief Caalo." Caalo spoke gesturing with hands in direction of river that divided the territory of current Alvith villages.
"Take from village, grow weaker. Why think I Chief Krascalo let this?" Chief Krascalo spoke.
"No... grow stronger! Two villages but Great.. High Chief rule both! High Chief Krascalo!" Caalo Spoke with a grin.
"Rule two villages... much discuss blood of mine." Chief Krascalo spoke then motioned to come sit down to discuss things.

The cunning Caalo would explain his idea of organizing villages under a High Chief. Each village would have its own chief known as a Low Chief who would rule village while above them was the High Chief. Naturally Krascalo Vith would be the first of the High Chiefs and rule the unified villages. Caalo would be responsible for founding a village closer to river that would grow mighty like Scalo Village. The second of Scalo Village would become Low Chief of the village, a Alvith female named Maule. A gathering in center of Scalo Village was organized to announce this.

"Greatness! We shall grow stronger! Blood of I Chief Krascalo shall found new village!" Chief Krascalo spoke to applause of the villagers.
"I Chief Krascalo become High Chief! Rule both! With unity grow strength. Caalo blood of blood, Low Chief of Caalo Village. Maule low chief of Scalo village!" Chief Krascalo spoke again to applause and muttering from some. With announcement out of way explaining it to rest of village would be handled by Caalo.

While village celebrated future of growing strength was a small gathering outside village by family of Raclo. It was a great time as Maule wife of Raclo would become a chief to village. Raule would take her mother's old position herding the Ogurk. It was a joyous time for family as in time Raule or her brother Mauco might one day take over as Chief. Raclo expressed his plans to retire and focus his energy on forging tools of stone. The new one in charge of bringing village chief food would be Mauco who was trained to be a butcher by his father.

Happenings in Village of Rielo
Word of happening in Village of Scalo had spread to Village of Rielo. Chief Rielo Kriivith was unsure what Krascalo was up to but did not think any trouble with come of this. The eclipse had passed and symbol of twin eyes of great serpent adorned the huts in village. The coming times looked to be ones of prosperity to Chief Rielo Kriivith.

Work on using the sun dried clay mud bricks to construct a hut was going poorly. Kaalo though observed the current huts and decided they would make the bone frame of a hut then attempt to stack the bricks up. The idea had come to Kaalo when he thought how without bones to keep hides up the huts would collapse similar to how bricks have been when stacked too high.

I can have my next pust out tomorrow. Had waited for another to post then got distracted by paradox sale and Europa Universallis IV. Really sorry about it. I'll except whatever is choice everyone decides to vote for.

That's what's going to happen here too.

How did you do the math to figure out the growth rate of the Alvith?

@Joegreenbeen

What I did for Alvith is I figured out numbers of males and females. For Alvith population it is 52% male and 48% female. From that I then decided that 75% of that is adults and 25% would be children. With number of adults then for each male/female pair I counted that as a mated pair which can produce children. So I took that number then gave Alvith a 50% fertility so only half of pairs could produce children. Take the number I get for number of children and spread it out between 52% male and 48% female first. Go through distributing population increase between 75% adult and 25% child for both genders which accounts for children becoming adults. Then checked the percentage increase in population and it was 18%. Seeing this as a little big for Alvith I added a additional step which was a 5% population decline after each growth in population. The 5% accounts for deaths from lack of medical knowledge, wild animals, sickness and old age. Would keep track of posts with population and after three posts would have a growth in next post.

So that is how I figured out to do 13% population growth for Alvith. It works currently but would need to redo numbers and figure out new growth rate if Alvith ever were to suffer a great number of deaths. Technological advancement could also alter the growth rate to be higher by lowering death rate.
