The copper armour will act as a layered type of mold, since it's quite the shapeable material I thought it would fit my nations standards, and since it's coated with gold it'd still shine as bright as the sun.
I've changed it to Copper armor.
Ah, understood.

And I think plate armor was in there too correct me if I was wrong.
Plate armor is, as I stated: Only given to the Holy Legion. I'm going to make the Holy Legion a single legion and make the Exiled Legion into 90% of the military population, which: As I stated: use out-dated, worn and shitty weaponry which is too shitty to be worn by the Holy Legion.
Aright, fixing the shoulder weapon, tiding up the nation size and population distrubution.
Understood, so, to summarise the needed changes are the replacement of the shoulder mounted Ballista esque weapon with a crossbow? I think like I forgot a couple of things..

A military comprised of highly-trained soldiers clad in 'outdated' steel armor whom favor Fabian-style tactics, with the soldiers utilizing powerful shoulder-mounted ballista, with said ballista firing bolts that possess tips laced with an unusual (and rather unstable) reactive composite explosive constructed using chemical compounds and conventional explosive material (most likely gunpowder), with the bolts having the capacity to detonate on impact with a target. In a 5th century RP.
The shoulder mounted weapon does not fire any sort of explosive bolt. The 'shoulder mounted Ballista' is basically a slightly larger scaled crossbow placed over the shoulder and requiring two people to fire it. The city size is of no logical reasoning, Rome was massive, The Imperium isn't therefor people live tighter together. I was originally going to make the Holy Legion a single legion of 10.000 men whom protected fortitude with access to the Imperial arsenal, but I wanted to try and see if this flew before hand. Obviously it didn't so I'll edit it. The exiled legion are clad in outdated, worn and experienced armor, I didn't say the same for the Holy Legion. The Augustus Eagle is, as mentioned a portable, city placed siege weapon of large proportions. it should fit the setting since ballista's were used by the romans during this time and the Augustus Eagle is essentially a larger ballista, yet again placed in an immovable tower in a city. But your wish against the Pheonix bolt is certain and therefor the explosives will be removed, but it'll still be on fire. I am well aware that my soldiers will face incredible dissadvantage in any environment that isn't flat which is why I placed myself around the larger portions of the map that was being occupied with people whom use the larger mountain ranges, the only reason that Fortitude is located on a mountain is because the realms own military forces has trouble getting there, obviously there's roads making it easier.
The entire exiled legion is unrealiable, and with the coming edit which will make 90% of the entire army into the exiles it will create quite the tension.

Nation Name:
The Imperium
Capital:
Fortitude (Eternity Gate)
Capital Population:
700 000~
Other Major Settlements:
- Solitude. (100k)
- Eclair. (400k)
- Tystus. (500k)
- Clypsum. (300k)
- Glausus. (200k)
- Belairgrad. (500k)
- Nilenheim. (500k)
Population:
5.000.000~
Racial demographics:
The Imperium spans the previous borders of five different kingdoms, the racial demographics are varied greatly. Therefor the people of this empire have different and varrying appearences, skin colors, facial features and even hair colors.
Social dynamics:
The Imperium is a brutal, but peaceful place to live, any law breakers are dealt with in haste and killed off at a moments notice, the sentence for crime remains a constant execution, therefor the society is mostly crime free, either they're too scared or simply something else. The Imperium's social standard is that of a helping hand to outsiders, those who bought the helping hand will realize that things ain't sunshine and happy smiles in the imperium, it is instead filled with slave labour where ever you wouldn't look, or you simply didn't realize. The Imperial Legions hold strict controll over the cities and the Exiled Legions controll anywhere there isn't settlements. Due to this brutal everyday lifestyle of being close to death if you were to do something wrong people tend to ignore false-doers and go about their day as if nothing happened.
Fashion:
Due to the incredible slave labour of the Imperium the majority of civilians have the money to afford a ,mastercrafted Imperial Lebria, an entire outfit made out of a combination of robes and a mastercrafted suit of typical Imperial design, often adding beautiful jewels, the more jewels or the more expensive emeralds, etc, the higher ranking you are. A Lebria is mostly for men, but it works for women aswell, however they recieve the Imperial Cybria, instead. It's a combination between two robes and yet another mastercrafted dress, the emeralds and jewels still apply to this piece of clothing. Slaves recieve a Cyndria, a grey, but yet beautiful robe which conceals the entire body.
Calendar:
N/A.
Art:
Art is embedded into everything inside the Imperiums borders, art is put into weapons, shields and armor, even furniture, basically everything has a bit of artistry inside of it, the Imperial Three Headed Eagle was a construct of the Emperors artistry and it simply grew from there, like a wild fire, it's become a valuable trading resource simply because the Imperial artists are famed enough to be mentioned across the globe.
Law:
Law and Order is first and fore-most the single, most important thing in the Imperium simply due to the fact that the Imperium is the son of a four kingdoms, due to the varied cultures and sights on law the Imperium holds law in it's hands harder then anything else, a simple robbery is offered with death, which is why the Imperium has set up possible alternatives for people to not result to exactly that, the main one being that you could sign up for slavery.
Education:
Education is present everywhere, the Imperium values knowledge and believes that knowledge is, infact, power. Of course there are military academies aswell, for those willing to sacrifice their bodies for warfare early in life. The most prestigious schools resides around the massive Imperial Palace which both acts as an almost impenetrable wall, a military fortress without equal and the Emperors personal residence.
Type of Government:
Total Monarchy.
Influence and relations:
Please talk to me. D:
Important People:
- Emperor Magnus Sigismund the VII.
- Holy Champion Augustus Sigmund.
- Exiled Champion Mailurm Xai.
- Prince Claus the II.
Trading and tax:
Trading is given only to those whom aren't slaves and tax is put upon those whom are slaves. This is simply because the slave size is incredibly large in comparison to that of normal citizens and therefor slaves make plenty of money, which the government takes 70% off.
Important trading possibilities:
- Art.
- Resources.
- Education.
- Money.
- Gold
The possibility to join the Imperium exists also for those whom are willing.
Major industries:
- Art.
- Resources.
- Education.
- Money.
- Ores
- Gold (imports gold, also.)
(Anything related to the military is not for trade or sale)
Major Associations:
The Emperors personal armory and academy are the only ones worth mentioning, simply because they are above the limits of normal Imperial smiths, whom usually excell beyond the limits of other countries smiths.
Currency:
The Imperial Sigil.
Bronze: 1.
Silver: 100.
Gold: 1000.
Military:
The Imperium's army is vast, and spread in such a manner that it's not spread at all, instead it covers plenty of ground without risking safety or protection. The Imperium's army exists in two types, the Holy Legions of the Emperor himself, whom are made out of Imperial citizens and the Exiled Legions whom are made out of slaves and other kinds of people, any soldier is given the best of anything and the powers of a soldier in the hierarchy is often abused, therefor for every 10 soldiers there's 2 'Guardians' whom keep order and preserve the system so that riots aren't of imminent danger. The Holy Legion is of small size, but incredible strenght, they scale up to 10.000 legioneers and there's only one Holy Legion and it protects Fortitude. The Holy Legion originates from the Imperial Palace itself and return there when they are in need of supplies, weapons or armor.
For every 50 civilians there's 1 legioneer of either the exiled legions or the holy legion. The exiled legions are made up of slaves whom either wish to protect or simply recieve a better paying jobb then their last one. The exiled legions are exactly that, exiled, their legioneers are forced to live in massive camps or towns and remain from the cities at all costs, only an exile of amazing merits can enter a city and when he does it's most likely on a ride straight to the imperial palace wishing for a promotion to the Holy Legion.
The Exiled Legions are of unknown size, but they fight with guerrila like tactics and often in terrain that gains them the upper hand, they only pick fights that they can win and are equiped with out dated Imperial armor coated in grey-ish silver, whilst the Holy Legioneers are equiped with armour made out of copper and coated with gold of plate proportions.
The Imperium's Navy is consistant of transport ships made to carry large ammounts of cargo or troops to an amphibious assault, they're not meant to carry balistas or any sort of siege equipment. The Imperium's siege weapons are often made out of resources avalible at the battlefield, mostly trees and stone, but they also carry small portable siege weapons like the shoulder mounted balistian, simply a smaller balista made for shooting climbing hooks or iron mounted arrows. Around the Imperiums cities are the siege weapons, large and immovable, they are able to rotate a simple 90* and there's therefor always four of them in each city, 6 in Fortitude. The Augustus Eagle is the name of this siege monstrosity, the balista like weapon which fires iron smelted eagles coated with goal and to top it all off, the golden eagle is also drenched in oil so that it'll burn whilst it's flying. The ammunition for the Augustus Eagle is called Pheonix Bolts.
The weapons which are placed in the legions arsenal are:
- Shields, often tower shields due to the slow nature of the heavily armored Imperial forces.
- Swords, High quality to the Holy Legion, lower quality to the Exiled Legion.
- Crossbows.
- Polearms.
- Lances.
- Hammers.
Landscape:
The landscape of the Imperium is largely varrying therefor warriors of the Imperium are taught in the arts of battle in desert, arctic and woodland environments. But as stated the environment of the Imperium is exactly that, Desert (40%), Arctic (5%) and Woodland (45%).
Wildlife:
Nothing of importance.
Notable places:
The great mountain of the Eclairian penincula is the home of Fortitude, the massive city built behind the gigantic fortress wall which acts as the gate, citadel and fortress of the city. It's size is obvious even far away, and due to the mostly flat land of the region the great mountain and Fortitude can be seen from the edges and far beyond the rims of the First Realm (the Imperium.) and into the realms of other nations, it's a pinnacle of success and a monument of faith for the Imperial citizens, it act's like a religious icon and is also a cathedral of sorts.
The Clarian Super Mines are most certainly a place of amazing proportions, the Clarian super mines are located in the heart of the Imperium and canyons have been dug up just to provide the Imperial warmachine with the resources, ores and minerals it needs to produce it's currency, military and many other things. Clarian is the region which holds these super mines and the super mine itself consists of five canyon mines located in the Clarian region, as stated previously. Clarian is surrounded by an exiled fortress which protects the mine and this fortress is known as Clarian Keep and it's the strongest exiled legion in the entire Imperium. Clarian is surrounded by a thick and tall forest area.

A figure of large scaling will need stronger muscle to support it, therefor it won't have any problem, just like we don't have any problem being 6ft tall and weighing 195 pounds estimate.
I'll be making my nation now.
