It strives for modernization, as well as strategical and technological advancement. Masonia welcomes all races, religions, and people. However, access to entry may be complicated or rejected due to political issues.

= Government =
Masonia is built on the idea that a nation is as good as its people. Therefore, citizens get a say, yet have representatives speak for them to make things easier. Any issues or suggestions? Consult a regional representative.

Representatives meet in parliament AT LEAST once a week. Here issues that press the nation are discussed. Parliament discussion and decision making is supervised by a Prime Representative, which is re-elected every month or if all representatives chose to remove the current Prime Representative. Just to clarify, Prime Representative only supervises parliament conversation, representatives make the decisions, and the citizens vote for them.

Representatives have to agree to laws, however, changes to government structure must be agreed on by all citizens.

If population is ever extremely low, government function and structure may be altered.

= Citizenship =
To become a citizen, you must receive permission from the Prime Representative. Directly contact the Prime Representative, and do not bother citizens or representatives if not needed. Only contact once if possible, and if you receive no response within 2-3 days, applicants are advised to simply contact representatives or citizens for information or assistance communicating with the Prime Representative. Just remember, it's not the job of anyone but the Prime Rep. to deal with applicants, so don't bother them too much.

Besides citizenship, citizens from other nations are allowed unless citizens of certain nations are blacklisted.

Dual Citizenship is not allowed.

More will be explained in the Constitution, whenever that gets released.

Pyrannic State of Loire

The Pyrannic State of Loire is a highly developed city state with a long history ranging from being the centre of a fallen empire to the primary city of the Pyrannic Church and residence of the papacy. Loire is almost entirely a cityscape, with large wheatfields and ongoing developments making up the rest of the land area. Loire has long stood as a primarily pacifist and agrarian society, not focusing on military or large scale industrial development.

== History ==
Loire seperated from the [[Holy Laiannic Empire]] following the turn away from orthodox [[Pyrannism]], but remained associated with the Empire on good terms.

The Pyrannic State of Loire ceased to exist briefly after the disappearance of Swonki II, being absorbed into the [[The Imperial Sovereignty of Luminar]]. The State was then later handed over to the Pope of [[Pyrannism]], Xara Saxan-Jjùri, where progress on Loire is being continued.

The Lordship of Valerose is a chartered state of the [[Holy Laiannic Empire]], located in the north-eastern region of the empire. Comprising primarily an island territory dominated by a central mountain, the state is defined by the town of Valerose, which is built along the mountain’s slopes. Governed by [[Iskander Valerai|Iskander Valera]]<nowiki/>i, Lord and Founding Architect of Valerose, the lordship functions as an autonomous imperial state under the authority of the imperial constitution.

= Geography =
Valerose occupies a largely insular landmass, characterised by steep terrain and a prominent central mountain that shapes both settlement and governance. The town of Valerose is constructed along the mountain’s side, with elevated districts overlooking the surrounding rivers. This geography has contributed to the state’s relative isolation, as well as its emphasis on order, careful planning, and controlled expansion.

= Government =
Valerose is governed as a chartered autonomous state within the [[Holy Laiannic Empire]]. Ultimate sovereignty rests with the imperial crown, while local authority is exercised by the Lord of Valerose in accordance with imperial law.

The Lordship is ruled by [[Iskander Valerai|Iskander Valera]]<nowiki/>i, whose authority derives from an imperial charter formally recognising Valerose as a constituent state of the empire. Governance is marked by a restrained and deliberate style, prioritising stability, legality, and continuity over spectacle or rapid reform.

= History =

== Founding ==
The land that would become Valerose was largely undeveloped prior to its acquisition in the early adult years of [[Iskander Valerai]]. Drawing upon inherited wealth from his family’s mercantile background and acting with imperial approval, Valerai secured the territory and oversaw its gradual development into a permanent settlement. Rather than a sudden founding, Valerose emerged incrementally through planned construction and administrative organisation.

== Development ==
Over time, Valerose grew into a recognised imperial state, its strategic location and controlled growth contributing to its stability. The lordship’s development reflected its founder’s preference for permanence and structure, shaped by the historical loss of his family’s ancestral homeland.

= Society and Culture =
The people of Valerose, known as Valerosians, live within a society that values order, routine, and continuity. The symbolic use of the rose is prominent in local customs and ceremonial displays, reflecting both the state’s identity and its ruling house. Public life is comparatively subdued, shaped by the lordship’s insular geography and restrained governance.

= Relations with the Empire =
Valerose maintains a stable relationship with the imperial crown and is formally aligned with the authority of Emperor Junk Zabel I. The lordship has no declared external enemies, favouring political neutrality and internal consolidation over expansionist ambition.

{{Infobox:Character|character_name=Iskander Valerai|character_image=Iskander_Valerai.png|religion=Laiannism|gender=Male|race=Human|titles=Lord & Architect of Valerose|age=34|hexcode=#892d3c|player=_baseplate|nationality=Valerosi}}

Iskander Valerai is a Valerosian nobleman and statesman, serving as the Lord and Founding Architect of the Lordship of [[Valerose]], a chartered state within the [[Holy Laiannic Empire]]. Known for his reserved and deliberate leadership style, Valerai oversaw the establishment of Valerose from largely undeveloped land and continues to govern the state under the imperial constitutional framework. Though historically reclusive, he has expressed an intention to adopt a more public role in the governance of his lordship.

== Early Life and Family ==
Iskander Valerai was born in the City of [[Laia]] to Alexander Valerai, a wealthy merchant whose commercial influence extended across much of the south. The Valerai family traces its ancestral origins to [[Yimirgola]], a land destroyed within recent generations, resulting in the family’s displacement and eventual settlement in [[Laia]].

Although Iskander never lived in Yimirgola, its loss formed a significant part of his upbringing through family accounts and preserved traditions. This inherited sense of impermanence would later influence his desire to establish a lasting and orderly state of his own.

== Founding of Valerose ==
In his mid-twenties, Valerai utilised inherited wealth and secured imperial approval to acquire a largely undeveloped island territory in the north-eastern reaches of the empire. Rather than establishing immediate dominion, he pursued gradual settlement, overseeing the planning and construction of the town of [[Valerose]] along the slopes of the island’s central mountain.

This process culminated in the formal recognition of the territory as the Lordship of [[Valerose]], with Valerai granted authority through an imperial charter.

== Personality ==
Valerai is widely regarded as reserved and difficult to read. His measured speech and guarded demeanour often lead to first impressions of suspicion or emotional distance, though those who know him describe him as quietly loyal and deeply committed to the long-term wellbeing of Valerose.

Privately, he is known to value solitude, ritual, and controlled routine, reflecting his broader philosophy of governance.

[[File:Boon Caravan Banner.png|thumb|435x435px|The banner of Boon Caravan]]
''"Out of the trees and hidden corners of the west, couriers travel across the planet to deliver secrets and messages for their employers. Should you encounter one they may tell you of their job and of their home - and of the group they serve. It is the whispers that follow these caravanners that are perhaps the most interesting things about Boon Caravan. Tales of a hidden city obscured by dense forest and mountains; large lumbering creatures and their suspicious underlings. Though of course these rumors are merely falsifications spread by competitors to mystify and demean the true and innocent nature of the Guild."''

''"Originally an independent research group focusing on the Neolithic era, it would be cobbled together into an economic guild by a true visionary and his chosen team of logisticians, craftsmen, writers, archaeologists and couriers. All of which are ideologically armed with the belief that the world requires an international information network if the nations of Cinder are to grow and flourish. Working with countries anywhere from Fortica to the Holy Pyrannic Empire, their missions are simple. Deliver packages, messages; Build and develop land and housing - work on national projects or help negotiate difficult situations for their employers."''

''"Considering the rising tensions of the political landscape, and the encroachment of a competitor organization within their economic niche, the Boon Caravan would attempt several new ways to maximize their outreach and influence to help global stability as well as to keep afloat in trying times. Such programs would include the publishing of adventure novels and archaeological journals, selling off ancient artefacts to the highest bidder and giving the greenlight to a department of Pataphysics."''

''"Despite these inane actions the Caravan have done to public knowledge, whispers still follow those that leave the ‘Boon Camp’. Though another name is given to these headquarters. One that can only be heard should you listen close to the wind and the world around you, one that was left half buried for a reason."''

''"It’s believed by the very few that listen to the quiet rumors of the Caravan that its real nature is caught in a superposition between a bumbling courier service and a more mysterious side. That the caravan itself may be a mask for a far more ancient organization. That the answers would only be given to those brave enough to venture out and see them for themselves. In this web of obscurity only one thing is known for sure. That neither rain, nor snow, nor Nether travel will slow a courier of the Boon Caravan."''

The religion had its origins in [[Loire]], and now the teachings of Pyr have spread across all of Cinder. A branch off of the religion is called [[Laiannism]], the main religion of the [[Holy Laiannic Empire]].

The '''Kingdom of Istraks''' was a democratic monarchy turned theocratic monarchy under the rule of her Holiness, the [[The Prophet|Crowned Prophetess of Istraks]]. It was located in the centre/north of Cinder.

== History ==

=== The Íster Seafarers ===
The people of Istraks, known as the '''Ísters''', are believed to be a tribe of technologically advanced seafarers originating from the '''northern reaches of Cinder'''. With large lung capacity and mastery of oceanic navigation, they were known for their curiosity and endurance. Íster migration southward eventually led to the founding of allied cultures like '''Danúvia''' and '''Sprúspolj''', sparking a cultural exchange that shaped the northern continent.

Traces of ancient Íster civilizations can be found beneath modern-day '''Interdam''' and '''Marefort''', with some scholars believing they originated from '''Martiverran Isles''' or '''Craymond Island'''.

=== The Martiverran Isles ===
Located east of Tintorini and home to the capital '''Interdam''', the Martiverran Isles became the primary settlement of the Ísters. Under '''King Joachem van Munke''', terraforming and agricultural development flourished. With aid from '''Khan Truewig of the Tsagaan Khanate''', the Isles were expanded, turning Istraks into a food-producing powerhouse.

The nearby islands, once ravaged by barbarian attacks, are now shared between Istraks and '''Rosendaele''', reflecting a commitment to peaceful diplomacy.

=== Founding the Kingdom ===
On '''2nd September''', Joachem van Munke declared the formation of the '''Kingdom of Istraks''' in Interdam. Despite scarce resources, the Kingdom quickly grew through trade and diplomacy, partnering with '''Crannoghold''' and the '''League of Syradine'''.

=== The Union & Fall of the Monarchy ===
Unification talks began between Istraks and Syradine in '''December 2023''', resulting in the formation of the '''Republic of Ritannia'''. Despite cultural fears of being overtaken, both sides pursued a new shared identity. Due to Syradine’s anti-monarchist stance, a peaceful revolution in Istraks overthrew the monarchy. Munke retained only a symbolic role, while democratic governance was adopted.

The monarchy was dissolved.

=== Collapse & Return ===
Years of '''genocide, prejudice, and marginalization''' followed. Istraki culture was repressed, and lands seized. When the '''Republic of Ritannia collapsed''', Istraki forces, under '''King Johannes van Munke''', reclaimed lost territory and re-established the Kingdom.

'''Hellania''' is a neutral nation located in south-west Ashenheim, founded by '''''Leonidas Cretheus''''' and ''Michael the Archangel'', two travelers united by a shared commitment to peace and cooperation. It borders the [[Holy Laiannic Empire|Holy Laiannic Empire,]] [[Masonia]] and [[New Ashannar]]. Inspired by the history, culture, and craftsmanship of the lands of Cinder, they established Hellania as a state dedicated to neutrality, prosperity, and non-aggression. The nation is open to people of all backgrounds, requiring only a commitment to peaceful coexistence, mutual respect, and collective effort, with an emphasis on community-driven development and long-term stability.

= Formation of Hellania =
Before the formation of Hellania, Leonidas Cretheus was a traveler in the Farlands, exploring the lands and discovering all that there was to see. During his travels, he met an individual who shared his interests and became a steadfast friend. The traveler went by the name of Michael, the Archangel.

Together, they both set out to roam the lands and seas until the day they found the lands of Cinder. Both were shocked by its rich history, all of its gorgeous architecture, its heart, soul, traditions, and craftsmanship. Leonidas saw a fire, so dense, so calm yet powerful. The flame burst into something that he himself forever cherished and dreamed of doing, which was to lead a nation through peace, not conflict. Shortly after the formation of Hellania a third individual, by the name of AWG, who was also from the Farlands stumbled upon Cinder, he roamed through the countries and the people looking for a place to belong, a land to call home; during his travels he met Michael, when they met and got to know each other he found similar ideals and interests in Michael and so Michael led him to Hellania. It was then that he met Leonidas and got to know him and shared similar interests in pursuing peace and not indulging in violence and war, together these three individuals became the founding members of Hellania and vowed to be binded to neutrality and build a nation where people all across the world can live peacefully and achieve prosperity.

After its addition into the HLE, there has been no current ruler of Ashenstrand after former ruler Lady of Ashenstrand, [[Emma]].

Ashenstrand was formed during it's declaration of independence from [[Yergola]], being called the Free City of Ashenstrand at first but following unification with the Grand Papal States into the Holy Pyrannic Empire it was renamed to Ashenstrand.

After the dissolvement of the [[Holy Pyrannic Empire|HPE]], Ashenstrand remained as an independent nation until the 9th of December, 2025. HLE peacekeeping forces arrived at Ashenstrand where a swift takeover took place to replace their former Kommandant who fled the state with Ashenstrand's entire treasury. Left with no ruler, Ashenstrand was incorporated into the HLE.

=== Hollenberg ===
TBA

=== Valerose ===
Valerose is a state within the Holy Laiannic Empire, located in the north-eastern reaches of the empire. Situated south of spawn, the state acts as a central point within the southern region, featuring a train station and railway that run through it, linking the southern territories. Valerose was formed years after the destruction of [[Yimirgola]], built on the remnants of the former province. The state is ruled by ''Iskander Valerai'', Lord of Valerose.

__TOC__

= Overview =
The Directory of Utilitaris is a nation located in the Gran Izmurra region. It emerged as a consolidating power among the Tribal States of the area through rational governance and well-planned economic policies. The Directory is known for its generosity and openess toward external parties, its strong emphasis on justice and its commitement to efficiency in all aspects of state administration.

= Geography =
Utilitaris is located in the Gran Izmurra region and spans vast snowy forests and open plains. Its territory includes numerous large icy lakes, which shape both settlement patterns and trade routes, as well as mountain ranges to the south and east that form natural defensive barriers.

The capital, The City of Utilitaris, is the nation’s primary settlement and is located in the western part of the country. It benefits from a comparatively warmer local climate, sustained by continuous heat emissions produced by its extensive industrial infrastructure.

To the north, Utilitaris borders the Empire of Ashenheim, separated by the Iced Channel. To the east lies the Ikiriya Directive, a land marked by exposed ancient rock formations revealed by seasonal snowmelt, as well as ocean access. To the south, Utilitaris borders the New Anneimd Republic, beyond the southern mountain chain. To the west, Utilitaris is bordered by the Sanéan Ocean, which provides the nation with maritime access, notably to the Islands of Mykonos and Gottburg.

= Society and Culture =
Following the enactment of the National Identity Decree, all tribal affiliations, ancestral obligations, and customary bonds outside the authority of the state were officially dissolved. Inhabitants of Utilitaris, regardless of language, origin, or belief, were unified under a single civic identity as Utilitarians. While private culture and personal faith remain permitted, they are subordinated to the law and may not divide the population. This decree reinforced social cohesion, centralizing loyalty, rights, and obligations around the state and shaping a society defined by shared responsibility, protection, and purpose rather than inherited distinctions.

This central decree has lead the state to introduced formal uniforms for all Utilitarian citizens. These uniforms indicate an individual’s status within the Directory and reflect the importance of each citizen to the functioning of the state.

= Government and Politics =
Utilitaris is a unitary, centralized nation governed under utilitarian principles, where all decisions aim to maximize collective welfare.

The nation’s main institutions include the Director Council, which drafts and votes on laws by majority;
The Directors, who execute laws, oversee defense and emergency powers, and ensures constitutional compliance;
and The Independent Court of Utilitaris, an independent body that verifies the legality of laws, sanctions, and citizen disputes.

Citizens actively participate in governance through consultation, advisory roles, and civic duties.
During times of crisis, all citizens contribute to national defense, either in combat or support roles.

Leadership continuity is strictly maintained: a Director is appointed immediately if the position becomes vacant, according to constitutional procedures.
Abuse of power, corruption, or actions that undermine unity are prohibited, while political factions may exist provided they do not disrupt national coordination or defense.
Internal disputes are resolved through law, The Independent Court of Utilitaris, or Council mediation rather than violence.

= Military =
Utilitaris maintains a relatively small military force, trained to ferociously defend the mainland in the event of foreign intervention, typically as a measure of last resort. Rather than relying on sheer military size, the nation’s primary means of defense and deterrence comes from diplomatic alliances and cordial relations with neighboring states, which serve to secure its borders and maintain stability within the region.

= Economy =
The Utilitarian economic model, known as the Pit Economy, is based on the systematic excavation of large-scale pits to supply the state with raw resources. Through this process, all extracted materials are centrally collected and stored for later use. Resources are either sold externally or allocated to the construction of national infrastructure and long-term development projects.
The excavated spaces are subsequently repurposed for industrial use. Their underground position allows for extensive industrial expansion while reducing surface congestion and heat waste, enabling the construction and preservation of a functional and aesthetically refined capital city above.
This design philosophy allows the state to remain largely self-reliant, but at the cost of significantly slowed construction, as excavation becomes increasingly time-consuming the deeper resources must be gathered.

Utilitaris primarily exports various types of stone and dirt, as well as quartz extracted from its excavation pits. Agricultural production from the Prison Colony generates surplus yields, enabling the export of wheat. In addition, extensive surface deforestation efforts have allowed the state to accumulate and export large quantities of spruce wood.

= Religion =
Utilitaris is home to two principal religious groups. The first is the followers of Frigorism, a faith centered on the reverence of cold and ice as sacred forces. The second is the followers of MonoGear, a religious movement that emerged as a reform of Frigorist principles, emphasizing structure, discipline, and the alignment of belief with civic duty.

Historically, Pyrannists lived in the western regions of the nation, but most migrated to the Holy Laianic Empire and converted to Laianism during the period of the Pyrannist and Laianic Crusade. Today, Pyrannism is considered extinct within Utilitaris, as no official records indicate any remaining practicing adherents.

= First Era of Utilitaris =
The First Era of the Directory was characterized by territorial expansion, the consolidation of internal governance, and the establishment of international collaborations.
During this period, Utilitaris strengthened its administrative structures, unified its population under the principles of the Directory, and began building diplomatic and economic ties with neighboring states, laying the foundations for long-term stability and influence in the Gran Izmurra region.

= Second Era of Utilitaris =
The Second Era of the Directory was defined by resilience and strength.
Following the internal crisis triggered by Director Venex’s assassination, Utilitaris leveraged its resources and institutional structure to restore order in Mykonos and Marrindor. This period saw the implementation of the Directive Doctrine, an administrative framework designed to reestablish failed states as autonomous and sovereign ones, reinforcing both internal stability and the nation’s capacity to project authority beyond its core territory.

'''Tsagaan''' ([[wikipedia:Help:IPA/Mongolian|/tsaː.gaanː]]/), officially the '''The Tsagaan Khanate,''' and commonly referred to as '''The Khanate,''' was a federal subject in [[Mistensia]], a [[wikipedia:Khanate|Khanate]] located in the near-spawn area and central Cinder. It was founded on August 27th of the year 2023 by TrueWig Khan. The capital of Tsagaan is Yurtbatar, located in the center of the Khanate. Tsagaan bordered Cauldra to the north, [[Sanéa|Sanéa]] to it's east, and Ashannar and the Noguhn Horde to the south-west.

== Etymology ==
The word "Tsagaan" roughly translates to the word "white". Due to a lack of written records, the exact reasoning and origin for this name is unknown, and Tsagaani locals report no knowledge on the subject.

== History ==

=== Prehistory ===
[[File:Wig Khan.png|thumb|300x300px|TrueWig Khan, first Great Khan of Tsagaan|left]]
Tsagaani history begins with TrueWig Khan, whose presence became known in late August 2023 after Belmontese scouts found a collection of yurts in the valley below them. On September 9th, Adrarian officials reported that Tsagaan had moved into a Testifikan village in the nearby Taiga forest. Tsagaan informed Adraria that they had no intention of further expansion into the forest, marking the first time that the Khanate would engange with another nation in an official capacity. Tsagaani forces then forcefully relocated the villagers across lake Tung-Ak, after which they burned the occupied village. Tsagaan would then begin a program of "reeducation" for the imported Testifikans, in an effort to convert them to the Tsagaani way of life.

TrueWig Khan would also begin his tradition of taking spiritual journeys during this time, during which the Khan would leave the Khanate for several days. TrueWig would appoint a Tur-Khan to run the Khanate during his absences.

=== Raid of Belmonte ===
Cultural tensions between the north-oriented and settled Town of Belmonte and the south-oriented nomadic Tsagaan manifested itself in a Tsagaani raid against the town. On September 22nd TrueWig Khan would send a demand of tribute to the king of Belmonte. Records show the demands included large sums of ores and cattle. The King of Belmonte would deny the Khan's demand, causing the Khanate to begin preparations for the raid. During this time, the King of Belmonte would flee the city, never to be seen again. When the Tsagaani forces entered the city they were met with a volunteer brigade from the [[ Aranna|Lysoborian Host.]] It was during this battle that the Tsagaani chief of war, Baudilla, would distinguish himself as one of the most skilled military leaders in the region. After effective use of hit and run tactics, the Lysborian regiment would retreat, and surrender the city to Tsagaan.

Tsagaan would then begin converting Belmonte's Testifikan population to the nomadic lifestyle, much like they had done with the Testifikans from the Taiga village. Tsagaan would also destroy Belmonte's connection to the PISS road, separating the city from is northern roots. During the raid, Tsagaan would also capture and imprison Vita de Marirreguera, who had traveled north from the town of Anneimd to defend Belmonte, of which they were closely related. Much like the Testifikans, Vita would be converted to the nomadic lifestyle. From this point onward, Anneimd would de-facto be part of Tsagaan, though retained its nominal independence.

=== The TrueWig Period ===
The annexation of Belmonte would place Tsagaan as the foremost military power in central Cinder. When Ascëan migrants fled from Aranna, they would request the permission of the Khan to settle to Tsagaan's east. This would be the beginning of Tsagaan's informal overlordship of Ephesus, which would last until the establishment of the Principate of Messenia.

Also during the period, the former town of Belmonte would fall into ruin. Damaged from the raid, it's once great walls would crumble and a earthquake would bury much of the lower city. The TrueWig period would see the formation of the Tsagaani court, with Vita de Marirreguera serving as the nation's head of diplomacy, called the Elci. Baudilla would also cement himself as the head of the Tsagaani war machine, and would serve this position until his rebellion on February 9th, 2024.

=== The Cauldro-Tsagaan War ===
The town of Belmonte, Anneimd, and the Commune of Covilhã were all closely economically and culturally related before the arrival of Tsagaan. The annexation of Belmonte and de-facto integration of Anneimd posed a great threat to Covilhã, the last of the 3 brother nations. This caused Covilhã to willingly give itself to the Kingdom of Cauldra, trading it's sovereignty for protection. This would be the beginning of the tension between Tsagaan and Cauldra, which would eventually spill over into outright war on the 11th of December. Despite being heavily outnumbered, the Tsagaani attack on Covilhã succeeded due to superior organization and poor logistics on the Cauldran side.

The victory at Covilhã completely exhausted Cauldran forces, which caused them to sue for peace with the Treaty of Covilhã, which ceded the city Covilhã to Tsagaan as a vassal. Cauldran faliure in this war would become one of the causes for the Cauldran Revoultion, which ousted the king and brought about the first revolutionary state. For Tsagaan, the war would cement them as one of Cinder's foremost military powers, which caused neighboring nations, such as those in the south, to form military alliances in the hope of defending against the Tsagaani threat.

=== The Post-War Decline ===
Already evident before the war with Cauldra, the Great Khan's mental capacity was declining. It it theorized that he contracted some form of Alzheimer's disease [[wikipedia:Alzheimer's disease|Alzheimer's disease]], though an official diagnosis was never given. The Khan's mental decline left him unable to run the Khanate efficiently, which caused Vita de Marirreguera to increasing take over the day-to-day running of Tsagaan. This period would begin a shift in Tsagaan's foreign policy, with Marirreguera changing the Khanate to become a more peaceful state. This would mark a notable increase in cooperation with former enemies, such as [[ Cauldra|Cauldra]], and an overall decrease in Tsagaan's power projection.

The change in direction greatly upset members of the military. Notably, Chief of War Baudilla would frequently complain about the loss of Tsagaan's warrior culture and the perceived weakness of the aging TrueWig. This would prompt Baudilla to spark a rebellion in the Ulaan region on the 9th of February. The leadership crisis would then cause Marirreguera to formally declare himself Khan, naming himself Khan Vita de Marirreguera. The rebellion would result in a victory for Khan Vita's forces, which forced Baudilla to seek refuge in Aranna. Shortly after the rebellion's conclusion, TrueWig Khan would pass away.

=== The Khan Vita Period ===
This currently ongoing period in Tsagaani history has been marked by much of the same policies seen during the post-war decline, with an increased focus on isolationism.

== Government and politics ==
The Tsagaan Khanate is an absolute monarchy, meaning all governing decisions are the responsibility of the Khan, a title currently held by Khan Vita de Marirreguera. In order to assist the Khan with governance, the Khan typically appoints a council that is made of experts in particular areas of government.

Historically, the two most important positions on the council have been Chief of War and Elci, though the importance of both positions has declined with Tsagaan's increasing isolation and avoidance of violence. Additionally, the title of Tür Khan was a temporary title given to singular people of the Khan's trust in order to rule the Khanate during the absence of the legitimate ruler.

== Geography ==

=== Physical Geography ===
Tsagaan's physical landscape is dominated by large open plains. These plains are broken up by the Mondego River, which flows from the Mondego lakes to the west. Medium to small sized yurt settlements dot the open plains, which are connected by horse tracks that have formed dirt roads over time.

Northern Tsagaan is also home to large hills and mountains, part of the Cauldran mountain range.

=== Political Geography ===
Tsagaani land is divided up into 9 subdivisions. The divisions are:

* Belmonte
* Burkhan
* Covilhã
* Khokh
* Gird
* Gol
* Shar
* Ulaan
* Yurtbatar

== Culture ==
[[File:Flag Mistense.png|thumb|Flag of the Mistense people]]
Tsagaani culture is a mix between ethnic Tsagaani and the Mistense, who were intergrated during the Tsagaani conquests of Belmonte and Covilhã, as well as the intergration of Anneimd.

=== Religion ===
The official state religion of Tsagaan is Pyrannic-Tengrism, of which the Khan is the highest interpreter. Due to this, Tsagaan officially recognizes the The Pyrannic Church as the highest authority on religion.

In reality, very few Tsagaani citizens actually practice Pyrannic-Tengrism. Instead, the classical decentralized Tengrism is still widely practiced across Tsagaan. This belief focuses on the divinity of nature and the natural order, as well as nomad culture. The central deity of Tengrism is the Great Tengri, who is believed to be the god the of the sky and patron of the Tsagaani people.

In Pyrannic-Tengrism, Great Tengri is considered to be an aspect of Pyr.

{{Infobox Nation
|nation_name=Mineustre Tazkuytairin

Principality of Tazkuytai
|population=8 players
|culture=Tynzeu
|form_of_government=Semi-Constitutional Monarchy |leader_name=Sekuydu Auteus [Gruke]
|hexcode=#5555FF
|capital=Tazkuytai
|founding_date_irl=23rd March 2025
|location=East Alkare|constitution=Customary Law|founding_date_lore=0 AT|religion=Secular}}

Tazkuytai /tæzˈkutaɪ/ was a semi-constitutional monarchy primarily made up of native Tynzeu people. It stretched from the city of Verits to the capital Tazkuytai. It closely bordered the [[Firgaards]] to its west and [[Riaen]] to its south. Tazkuytai stood as the most far-eastern nation of the South-Eastern continent. The nation had been a vassal of the [[Vukodlak|Vukodlakie Empire]] but later seceded. Tazkuytai was the largest state of the South-Eastern continent, until its collapse. Tazkuytai originally stood as a refugee state of the Tynzeu people and other displaced peoples who sought to escape the ''<nowiki/>'zu kutuva''' (barbarians) of the farlands and later evolved into a feudal society.

== Culture ==
Tynzeu culture is most highlighted by two primary aspects: massive support for monarchy and a terrible fear of 'zu ti'kutuva' (the barbarians).

=== Militarisation ===
Due to the Kutuvakol (barbarian fear), large private stores of armour and weapons are personally owned by most subjects of Tazkuytai allowing for the Tynzeu to rapidly arm in war times, as seen in the Sternofel-NSF War. This war in particular initiated the Kutuvakol to its peak since after the long march due to the intervention of mercenaries deemed by the general populace to be of the same breed as the barbarians from their own homeland leading to further stockpiling.

Tazkuytai was generally considered to have the most ready and capable fighting force inside of Vukodlak during their time in the Empire.

=== Monarchism ===
The people of Tazkuytai almost entirely subscribe to a political philosophy of the Kèdeuchâdri (hero-king) whereby the monarch should derive his authority from continuous acts of bravery. It is seen as a great sign of weakness for a monarch to not directly participate in a war.

Monarchism in Tazkuytai particularly peaked with the death of the Empress Kresimira which resulted in an estates-general delivering an ultimatum to Auteus Sekuydu to demand the elevation of Tazkuytai to a High Kingdom of Vukodlak or the assembly would crown Auteus themselves. Support for the monarchy has also increased with the revitalisation of Revolutionism; seeing a threat to the Tynzeu way of life led to the collapse for plans of an Assembly of the People.

=== Values ===
The greatest values to the Tynzeu are a strong level of patriotism, managed cultural evolution and extensive personal liberties. For example, social mobility within Tazkuytai is exceedingly high, with many adventurers finding it easy to move South or North and settle new lands to find themselves elevated to nobility upon holding land. The people of Tazkuytai are careful regarding accepting foreign cultural influences, particularly ideas that could cause social dissonance such as revolutionism and pro-democracy ideologies.

=== Literature ===
The literature of Tazkuytai is primarily focused around poetry, short stories and books on political and economic theory.

=== Architecture ===
The architecture of Tazkuytai (city) primarily consists of baroque and haussmannian styles, focusing upon grandiose buildings that provide plentiful living space for residents of the town. Elsewhere in the nation are gothic styles, for example in the Grasyn castle.

=== Language ===
The primary legal and spoken language within Tazkuytai is "Tynzeu".

== Economy ==
The Tynzeu economy focuses primarily upon the creation and sale of armour, weapons and potions leading to what has been named a "XP economy" within Tazkuytai whereby the guilds of Tazkuytai take XP as payment at a 'social discount'. Furthermore, there is limited conventional capital enterprise within Tazkuytai that focuses primarily on the production and sale of building resources with Haste (the corporation) in particular focusing on the production of resources involved in redstone machines.

Tazkuytai is currently undergoing a period of economic revitalisation through the trial period of the 'Tazkuytai Florin' whereby Tazkuytai has opted to create a paper currency backed by netherite to be its legal tender which has created a spur of economic and political activity within the nation.

== History ==

=== Pre-History ===
''This section is predominately external lore (didn't occur on the server).''

Prior to the creation of Tazkuytai, the Tynzeu lived in the farlands of the world, records of this original homeland are scare with most knowledge passed down through the elven and over long living peoples of Tazkuytai who tend to paint an idealised picture of the 'old country'.

The homeland faced multiple rampant assaults from barbarians across its border with migrations and invasions causing severe cultural and social strife across the country. Eventually, an assignation of the former Prince, Jyortâ, led to the breakdown of the Tynzeu nation and the "Long March" that eventually led to the creation of Tazkuytai.

=== Settlement and Subjugation ===
The Long March was a multi-year period of famine, destitution and death for the Tynzeu people. The population dropped dramatically as the people trekked from the East to eventually settle on the coast of the South Eastern continent of the world; creating the city of Tazkuytai. Shortly thereafter, the Empress Kresimira Horachek welcomed the Tynzeu into the Vukodlakie Empire which Prince Auteus swore fealty to. Originally, Tazkuytai held the distinction of High Thanedom in the Vukodlakie Empire, considered a city-state.

=== The Lintlicker Tribe ===
To the east of the bourgeoning state, a tribe of "lint lickers" arose from the very edge of the world, threatening the very existence of Tazkuytai.

After some skirmishing with this barbaric people, great walls were constructed, a militia raised which marched out before razing much of the tribe's land and scattering it across the farlands. The tribals that did survive this event were enslaved or murdered and brough back to Tazkuytai in triumph.

=== Sternofel War ===
When Selene of Sternofel murdered Koen of the [[North Sanean Federation]] (NSF), Vukodlak was compelled into aiding the NSF in accordance with an alliance between the two states leading to a large amount of the Tynzeu population volunteering to join in the war on behalf of their Empress as compensation for her aid in establishing Tazkuytai.

During the war, Tynzeu soldiers fought valiantly at the Battle of the Riverside, securing multiple victories against the Sternofelian forces during the battle. However, accounts of NSF use of dogs in the battle in addition to constant 'dishonourable' conduct, as perceived by the nobility that fought in the battle, led to Tynzeu approval of the war dropping massively with many soldiers that had previously volunteered then going home rather than continue to fight.

Tynzeu opinion of the war and the NSF as a whole was damaged when many soldiers witnessed the NSF utilising biological warfare during the second major battle of the war, ending all support for continued aid to the NSF within Tazkuytai.

=== Constitutional Crisis ===
After the Sternofel war, Empress Kresimira sought to introduce a series of liberal reforms to the Empire, focusing upon the abolition of slavery, the banning of gambling, further rights to villagers and reforms that reduced private and personal ownership of the means of production.

In response to this, Tazkuytai issued a series of grievances to the Empress culminating in the "Ten Grievances." These grievances were initially ignored, the Empress rode to her death fighting a Drake and the then crowned Emperor [[Radzig Markow]] would meet with the Tynzeu nobility to revert these changes and bring about a consensus constitution.

=== Ejection from Vukodlak ===
Following the ascension of Radzig Markow to the Sculk throne, his reign was immediately met by skepticism of his legitimacy on the throne. Shortly after his coronation, a palace coup against Radzig by "Vukodlak proper" loyalists led to the ejection of Tazkuytai from Vukodlak against the wishes of the Tynzeu nobility and their Prince.

Despite this, Tazkuytai made efforts to secure their independence swiftly, disconnecting themselves from Vukodlak and quickly signing an alliance with [[Britannica]] to gain international recognition and defence against potential Vukodlakie retribution.

=== Prosperity and Peace ===
In the aftermath of its independence, Tazkuytai experienced an unprecedented period of prosperity, with large infrastructure projects to build up the nation. Primarily, these focused upon the development of rails out of Tazkuytai, with the largest rail on the server Tazkuytai-Britannica being built, with improvements of pre-existing rails out of Tazkuytai occurring.

Furthermore, large scale urbanisation began, with the City of Grasyn, the Palace of Sèvîsta and expansions of the City of Tazkuytai leading to a large boon of housing and industry to the population of Tazkuytai.

With the expansion of Tazkuytai and its territories, the Prince began to institute some "liberal" reforms, forming the Vîsta zu Nurvix (House of Lords). This parliament would permit all landholders within the Principality to participate in it.

=== The Allied Coalition ===
With the ascendancy of Thundra in the North West threatening to destabilise the entire world, and destroy Tynzeu ideals of personal freedom and self-determination: Tazkuytai found itself aligning further and further with the NSF whom stood against Thundran dominance in the North.

When approached by the NSF, the Tynzeu parliament quickly voted to join the Allied Coalition and the Prince began a campaign of unequivocal, unconditional support to the Coalition to end Thundran tyranny over the world.

== Government ==

=== First Government VII/II/VII AT (11/07/25) - ===
'''Mineu Sekuydu Auteus'''

''Prince Auteus Sekuydu''

'''Nurve Miyo Nuandre, Îklorix Flistèl zu Llafen'''

'''Nurve Darne, Îklorix Chel'''

''Lord Darne, Minister of War''

'''Fachôr-Mimal Aklar Librar, Îklorix zu Viratâ'''

''Governor-General Aklar Librar, Minister of the Colonies.''

==== Ideology ====
This government is overwhelmingly made up of interventionist nobles who call for increased Tynzeu involvement in global affairs to ensure and bring about self-determination, furthermore, economic policy is generally propelled by the thoughts in Auteus Sekuydu's "An Inquiry into the Nature of Money," advocating for state interventionist policies, monopolies over essential goods and high public spending. Domestically, the government has pushed for further rights for the nobility and increased personal freedoms for the citizens as a large.

The '''Republic of Ritannia''', or '''Ritannia''', is a Democratic Republic located in the centre/north of Cinder, stretching multiple continents. Founded on the 5th of January 2024, Ritannia unified the now defunct League of Syradine and the Kingdom of Istraks.

Ritannia directly borders [[Aranna]] in the south, and finds itself bordered with [[Thundra]], [[Crannoghold]] and [[Cirréone]] in the northern continent of [[Fortica]]. Lastly Ritannia borders [[Arboria]] in the west.

== Etymology ==

== History ==

=== Founding ===

==== Unification talks begin ====
The [[Syradine|League of Syradine]] and the [[Istraks|Kingdom of Istraks]], had a long history between one another. The two nations keeping one another in check. As time went on, the Syradine and Íster people found that there were not so different from one another. When Acolytius of Istraks joined Syradine as a dual citizens, proper talks of unification began.

These talks started on the 15th of December 2023. The ultimate goal was to fully form a new, single identity for Ritannia. That is why the governments chose for a competely new nation and form of government, and not a simple unification. There were concerns during the talks that Syradine politics would overpower that of Istraks. The majority of Ritannia would be from Syradine, and some were concerned that the people of Istraks would be forgotten. Though even with this concern, the talks continued with a focus on cooperation between the two nation states.

Other pronames for Ritannia during the unification talks were: Eidolon, Tulapia, Celestria, Santambria, Netalon and the Cinnamon Isles. The people eventually voted for the ''Republic of Ritannia''.

==== The Istraki King ====
Another problem arose, in the form of the King of Istraks, Munke. The League of Syradine their members were staunch anti-monarchists, and would not want a King to have status and power in this new proposed union. Luckily for them, there was a revolution in Istraks that overthrew the monarchy and usurped most of the King's political power. The King agreed that he would have no position of power in Ritannia, instead opting for a symbolic position because of the history behind their royal house, as was the case in Istraks.

The Syradinesian Asheyla of Selûne proposed not even having the Istraki monarchy be mentioned in the Ritannian constitution, as she was of the opinion that it was one of many things that would hold Ritannia back from forming a new cultural identity, seperate from Syradine and Istraks. This gained support in the unification talks, and agreed upon by Syradine and Istraks.

==== Government ====
To fully achieve the goal of forming a new identity, Syradine and Istraks wanted to create a new style of government, and not simply decide to adopt an existing one. Syradine followed a long tradition of democracy, and wanted to continue this in Ritannia. Acolytius, the driving force in Istraks behind the unification, agreed with this, and managed to convince the King of Istraks. It was decided that the people of Ritannia would vote for their leader, the Grand Vizier, and for the respective ministries in Ritannia.

The Republic of Ritannia was approved and created on the 5th of January in 2024, and after the first election the government was as follows:

- Grand Vizier Friedrich Acolytius of Selûne

- Minister of Trade & Finance Khanstantin Linetti of Tintorini

- Minister of Justice Simon Linetti

- Minister of Defence Kryia of Selûne

- Minister of Foreign Affairs Asheyla of Selûne

- Advisor Pepper of Selûne and Fusion

==== Announcement ====
The Republic of Ritannia was announced internationally on the 14th of January, by Grand Vizier Friedrich Acolytius of Selûne wit the following speach:

"After an ''entire month'' of discussions, proposals, preparations and votes, we are pleased announce to the international community the newest power of Cinder, the mighty and proud '''Republic of Ritannia'''! These two states, the oldest continuously surviving in the North, have stood as bastions of freedom and opposition to government overreaches. Although we had our arguments and disagreements, we always stood by each other."

International reception to Ritannia was largely positive, and this new beacon of democracy in the north would continue running to this day.

Baseplate2: Added to former countries.

[[File:MapOfArboria52924.png|thumb|Map of claimable areas showing the territory of Arboria in green]]
The '''Lands of Arboria''', simply referred to as '''Arboria''', is an Oligarchy that is headed by its Great Council. Located in the central Western area of Cinder [-2500, -1000], the nation borders [[Ritannia]]'s province of Barbacena to its West, The Order of the Water Lily to its Northeast, and [[Nauticca]] to its South. Arboria shares territory with both Nauticca (in the Southwestern claims of Arboria) and both [[Cauldra]] and Nauticca on behalf of the Western Pact (due South of its Capitol, Verdania).

== Etymology ==
The name of Arboria is derived from the Latin word of 'Arbor', which means tree. Trees are a focal point of Arborian settlements and culture.

== History ==

=== Pre-Arboria ===
Long before the nation of Arboria even existed, the initial Testifikaan village that made up the original settlement of Verdania was a now defunct nation, Circosia [-2500, -1000]. Circosia would be dissolved on the 1st of January, 2024.

Following the abandonment, the first settlers of Arboria, Moth and VexForce, arrived in the Testifikaan village on the 16th of March, 2024. Whilst VexForce would go off to become a citizen under the Monarchy of Yergola, Moth would develop the lands into a stateless city. Many individuals would come and go, notable builders being [[Yohn Othan]] (of Nauticca) and Zin Hue (of the [[Tsagaan Khanate]]), and even an equine breeder and trainer, SheepKingSheep. Within the unnamed stateless city would entail rapid development over the course of a week. During this time, iconic landmarks such as the Verdania Community House, the Verdania Trading Hall, the 'Studio Ghibli' House, and the Great Tree would be constructed. Much infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and a canal would also be constructed.

The Great Tree would become the very heart and soul of the city of Verdania, along with the very nation of Arboria, as it would influence the actions of the government and the cultural beliefs of the Arborian people and their affinity with nature.

=== Founding of Arboria ===
The region in which the stateless city was founded was very active. It was surrounded on just about every side by other nations. The city remained under the radar from the public of Cinder, until eventually, it would make its way upon the map with Arannese scouts looking to expand into the region. The idea of the city being claimed over was a concern of Moth for sometime. Foreign scouts looking to claim over this region only raised concerns further.

After much deliberation, the consensus was to establish and maintain sovereignty over their city and the surrounding land.

With the Great Tree being the pride of her people, Arboria was officially founded upon the 1st of April, 2024, by the current members of its Great Council, namely Moth, VexForce, JamesTowne, and SheepKingSheep, with the sight of foundation being the city of Verdania.

=== Signing of the Western Pact ===
Following Arboria's foundation, it would launch itself into the world stage. Arborian officials would be very vocal with their opinions on matters occurring throughout Cinder's world stage, and even immerse themselves in their own diplomacy. On the 4th of April, 2024, Representative Moth would begin conversations with representatives from both Cauldra and Nauticca to discuss cultivating relationships with one another on behalf of their proximity with one another and their placement in the West.

Following days of discussion and drafting up a treaty, the [[Western Pact]] would be officially signed by Representative Moth of Arboria, Commander Nitalia Witting of Nauticca, and Chairman GlitchTime of Cauldra. The main points of the treaty encompassed a non-aggression pact between the three nations, safeguards and due notice with expansion by any of the three nations, as well as assurances of free trade and infrastructure between the three nations.

Following the establishment of the Western Pact, Arboria would face an era of great prosperity, however this would also place them in more spotlights on the global stage.

== List of Settlements ==

=== Verdania ===
Verdania is the Capital of Arboria. It was the very first location to be settled into by the original Arborians, and sits upon the lands that were known as Circosia long ago. Verdania is an ever-developing nation, cultivated by the hard work of the Great Council and predominantly Nauticcan foreign labor.

Verdania hosts some of the most important buildings and trees to Arborian culture and life. The original structure of Verdania Community House, along with the Great Tree that stands as the centerpiece of Verdania and Arboria's flag. Verdania contains residencies for just about every member of the nation, and even those from other nations who assisted in the construction of the city.

Verdania has often been accredited as 'the prettiest city in Cinder', on behalf of the rather large plant life, the beautiful landscape it sits upon, and the unique buildings that are iconic to the Verdania style.

=== Mossy Nook ===
Mossy Nook is the first settlement established in the Lands of Arboria outside of Verdania. Just South of the growing city, Mossy Nook sits as a much more quiet settlement, home to various mythical critters of Arboria, as well as lodging for Nauticcan foreign laborers.

Yohn Othan oversees the construction and establishment of Mossy Nook. Yohn's Construction & Cutlass Company has a prominent presence in the region. Mossy Nook is still a developing and ever-expanding development of Arboria.

=== The Stone Platform ===
The Stone Platform is an eyesore that will soon become a large and bustling city, based on architecture from faraway lands that have since had its culture and ideas abandoned... Until now.

=== Oranthorn ===
A small countryside savanna farming town in the Southwestern portion of Arboria.

== Geography ==
Arboria is a vast and diverse landscape. The Eastern portions of Arboria, primarily Verdania, Mossy Nook, and Willowmere, are almost exclusively plains, with giant trees and much greener decorating the population epicenters. Meanwhile, the Northwestern, Western, and Southwestern parts of Arboria are almost all flat savanna. While the biomes of Arboria are primarily made up of both plains and savanna biomes, a large mountain peak separates the city of Verdania from the town of Mossy Nook. The Evonian Sea comprises the Eastern coastline of Arboria.

'''Aranna''', currently known as the '''Arannese Kaiserreich''', or the '''Imperial State of Aranna''' is the oldest standing nation in the lands of Cinder, located on the coast of the Evonian Sea.
Starting off as a small principality in the Colloquial West, by the late First Era it grew to span from the Quintarion Isle, to the center of the Void of Nations, further expanding into the Mondego and South River regions.
The first 4 dozen Dawns, Aranna saw a period of near total stability and peace, internally known as Pax Arannica. Its military involvement during the period only involved intervention in distant territories in Belmonte, Covilhã, and Yergola.

__TOC__
==Economy & Industry==
From the dawn of the First Era Aranna has been semi-consistently increasing and improving its productive capacity. Using Testifikan serfdom it it became one of the earliest suppliers of food, arms, and armour across the colloquial West Cinder.
Thanks to Kaiser Scarlet's initiative in industrial development Aranna began internal production of mass amounts of iron, paper, and a diversified arsenal for the Landsknecht regiment.
Developments in Aranna led to the creation of the '''Arannese Re-education Complex''', also known as '''再教育营'''. The complex allowed for labourless extraction of productive capacity from criminals, which was done twice throughout its existence.
Following the admission of the City-state of Lavard into the then Democratic People's Republic of Aranna, its productive capacity has drastically increased in the sphere of agriculture, now producing nearly every cattle product available.
== History ==
=== Early history ===
Aranna was founded in the very beginning of the First Era during the period known as the First Moons. It was the first nation to publicly declare its existence to the world. Being a rapidly advancing settlement in the forests of Ehb, Aranna was known for its industry and early philanthropic tendencies, as it supplied nearby nations with Testifikan workers and tools & armour.

During the late First Moons, Aranna spearheaded an expedition to the End dimension via the Saigon Stronghold, accompanied by members of Ascëa, Belmonte, and Cauldra. Ever since then, the Dragon Egg has remained in Arannese possession. Aranna subsequently annexed Ascëa in a mutual agreement, forming the short-lived Confederate States of Aranna.

=== Confederate States of Aranna ===
A few Dawns after the First Moons, on {{ArcaneDate|year=2023|month=8|day=30}} (2023/08/30), after short negotiations, leading to Arannese annexation of Ascëa, the people of Aranna and Ascëa confederated, forming the Confederate States of Aranna, a democratic republic, under a common banner.
The CSA did not exist for too long, and due to internal pressure, it was disbanded on {{ArcaneDate|year=2023|month=9|day=16}} (2023/09/16).
Subsequently after the dissolution of the CSA, Ascëan valley folk moved to form Parakascëa, and Aranna restored its control over the region. This paved the way to Lysoborian Interregnum.

=== Lysoborian Interregnum ===
Upon the dissolution of the CSA, the leadership of Aranna, Tristram Whitestrake and Scarlet Crimson as well as a newcomer under the alias "Pumpe" formed a military host under the name Lysobor, which means "fallen forest" in Lysoborian Arannese.

During the Interregnum period, under supervision from Scarlet Crimson, Aranna had its first private company – [[LMW]], or '''Lysoborśka Mašynna Wyrobńa''' (Lysoborian Machine Works). The company specialised in infrastructure, engineering, and aviation, being one of the first known services for air travel across Cinder.
Subsequently after this discovery of flight, citizen Pumpe opened a tavern in the capital city of Aranna, called the Golden Keg. Its official opening occurred on {{ArcaneDate|year=2023|month=9|day=30}} (2023/09/30).
The Lysobor Host served as the protector of the Arannese territory until the creation of a stable government under the Democratic People's Republic of Aranna.

====First Ultimatum====
During the Interregnum period, the first properly recorded conflict between Aranna and Cauldra took place, on {{ArcaneDate|year=2023|month=10|day=15}}. The incident entailed former Cauldran citizen bca_ committing a crime in the Arannese capital, referred to as "Unsolicited testifikan coitus" or testiphilia. For this crime, she was put into the Arannese State Penitentiary to answer for her crimes. Due to the nature of the Lysobor Host, there was no properly set up legal system to try bca_, so an ultimatum was drafted to the then King of Cauldra, Swonki. Under the influence of large doses of alcohol brewed in the newly constructed Golden Keg Inn, Arannese officials [[Tristram Whitestrake|Tristram]] and [[Scarlet Crimson|Scarlet]] demanded from Cauldra guarantees for land already under Arannese military control. Bca_ was released on the next day. This incident was known in the chronicles as the '''First Ultimatum.'''

==== Second Ultimatum ====
Following the successful restoration of order in the nation, Aranna agreed to provide some of its territory to the Kingdom of Cauldra for a fishing village east of Whitestrake Mountain on the Phishoko Cliffs, which was meant to be the residence of the Cauldran Prime Minister jaysmiles. The agreement involved Cauldran citizens and officials not expanding their projects and infrastructure on the hillside of the mountain, though it was subsequently disrespected when IFERN built a rudimentary railway connection to the fishing village through Arannese hills without the knowledge of the Arannese government. Upon a request to remove the railway, the Cauldran government obliged and retained its village within the lowlands of the region, though its ownership of the territory was short-lived, as right after the Cauldran monarchy was couped and the Cauldran PM fled the nation, leaving the village unattended, Aranna demanded the return of the territory in the '''Second Ultimatum'''. Following a short discussion between the two governments, the village was ceded to the DPRA.

=== The Republic ===
[[File:Letter_from_Aranna.png|thumb|Arannese recruitment poster]]
When the situation in Lysobor stabilised, Tristram Whitestrake drafted a brand new constitution of Aranna, guaranteeing that the population of the country, which had secured stability during the Interregnum period remains in power within the Supreme Council of Aranna, a republican institution which demanded an odd number of councillors of equal shares of authority to operate, with the rest of the population having little say in legislative and executive branches.

During the Early Republican period, when a revolution occurred in the City-state of Lavard, a decree of the Supreme Council of Aranna launched a military operation, the goal of which was to stabilise the situation in Lavard under Staatwehr oversight. When the operation has finished in a resounding success, the rebellious elements of Lavard were nowhere to be found, which prompted the government of Aranna to initiate talks on annexation of Lavard with involvement of [[Cauldra]] and [[Ritannia]], neither of which had protested it. Upon the integration of Lavard into the Republic, an agreement was reached with Ritannia for temporary non-belligerence, which both states respected with no incidents.

=== Imperial reconstruction ===
Seeing the need for reform in the nation, after the Magister of War was killed in the streets of the capital city, Tristram Whitestrake proposed a reconstruction of the state under the undivided rule of a Kaiser. After weeks of discussions, the Supreme Council had decided to appoint Scarlet Crimson as the Kaiser of Aranna and Sovereign of the Realm. the former Charter of the DPRA remained in use until Tristram Whitestrake presented the Imperial Charter of Aranna, which provided total authority to Kaiser Scarlet, whilst Tristram remained at helm of civil affairs and certain diplomatic missions until his death in early 2nd Era and the formation of the Reichsfürst Seat, held by [[Arabella Whitestrake]].

During the Eleventh Rotation of the First Era, Aranna entered the Antirevolutionary War, a massive conflict involving most nations in the Northern Hemiplane. The Arannese Kaiserreich joined this conflict with the goals of demilitarising the Revolutionary Internationale, enforcing its territorial claims, and liberating the territory of Zimnogóra, and ended up annexing the former state of [[Cauldra]].

Following the reformation Aranna experienced a period of consistent slow growth in territory and population, integrating the territories of the Red Legion, and forming the new provincial system.

== Political system ==
Aranna over the months of its existence phased through multiple governmental systems, though its ruling caste remained since its formation.
The Arannese Kaiserreich is an "Absolute Constitutional Monarchy", meaning the power of the ruler, titled "the Kaiser" has absolute authority over the legislative, judicial, and executive branches, but maintaining the rule of the Imperial Charter and acting within its laws, dictated by the overall will of the people.
Prior to the Imperial Reformation, the Arannese state was governed by a triarchy in the Supreme Council, consisting of Scarlet, Tristram, and Pumpe. Within the government, but below the authority of the council were the Magistrates of War and Internal Development, held in their time by Magisters Baduila and Bca respectively.
Aranna is also home to an enigmatic and incomplete ideological and philosophical movement called "Metamorphism", started and devised by [[Tristram Whitestrake]] as a response to [[Revolutionism]]'s rapid spread across the region. Metamorphism never took off as a branch of philosophy, but it did make way for the ideology of Justicarism.
In the 3rd decade of the 2nd Era Aranna had begun reshaping its governmental structure, namely by finalizing its internal borders and beginning the process of writing a new Imperial Charter.

== Geography ==
Aranna encompasses primarily forests and hills, it has 4 major mountain ranges:
* Whitestrake Mountain
* Cauldran Mountains
* Insmouth Mountains
* Hanystan Mountains
* Lavard Mountain
The largest river in Aranna, river Małka begins in the northern reaches of the Cauldran Mountains and flows into the South River. It serves as a natural display of the Lysoborian borders.
=== Location ===
The state of Aranna is situated on the "Thousandth Parallel", the imaginary line separating the Central Cinder from Northern Cinder. The capital city is located roughly at -1600 -1000. It considers itself a Western, sometimes Northwestern nation.
=== Administrative Divisions ===
[[File:internal_aranna.png|frame|center|middle|200px|Official Internal Map of the Arannese Empire]]
The Arannese Empire is divided into provinces and counties of various types and cultures, all recognising the absolute authority of the crown. Throughout Arannese history attempts were made to formalize and regulate its territorial administration, though none were successful until {{ArcaneDate|year=2025|month=2|day=1}}, when Reichsfürstin Arabella Whitestrake alongside the leaders of Arannese provinces formed a coherent understanding of its territorial administration.

Arannese internal divisions enjoy great autonomy in how they operate internally and how they conduct diplomacy with each other as well as foreign entities. On {{ArcaneDate|year=2025|month=1|day=27}}, the Imperial fiefdom of Morgenadler annexed the territory of Oakland from the Republic of Uslanpolj, though it was not integrated into the Empire. The same applied to the former Cauldran mining outpost currently in possession of the Kingdom of Öskjuva, or the possessions of Graf Quintara von Zabel, aside from the fiefs at Quintarion Isles.

== Culture ==
Arannese culture is centered around the maintenance of total social cohesion between the citizens. Arannese recruitment policy states that newcomers would not be admitted to the nation if the population protests.
At the same time Arannese culture can be characterised with cleanliness and generosity, as was seen in the First Moons period and the "Open doors" procedure, letting all those in need receive residential rights in the state, and all newly admitted citizens receive residences in the capital city free of charge.

=== Military culture ===
Militarily Aranna maintains combat readiness at all times, and is the first nation to publicly adopt a set of rules of warfare, called the Codex Para Bellum. Under this Codex, the Arannese Imperial Military, named the Landsknechts, operates within specific parameters, which disallow members of the military from marauding, harming civilian populations, arbitrarily arrest civilians, or use specific types of weapons.
[[File:Aranna poster.png|frameless|right|Arannese military poster]]

The Landsknechts also serve as the Empire's law enforcement and are given the responsibility of carrying out penalties for criminal activity and safeguarding the Arannese Re-education Center.

=== Architecture ===
Arannese architecture can be divided into two primary styles, eastern and western; Western Arannese architecture is present in the towns and settlements of Aranna-Eiluran, Tiamat, and Dagon, whilst the eastern style is characteristics of Lavardian territories.
=== Literature ===
Aranna is home to one of the largest known libraries across Cinder, located on the ground floor of the town hall. The bulk of the Arannese literature is ecclesiastical, involving canonical stories and explanations of deities and mythological concepts of the Church of the Divines. The library also contains a limited amount of Pyrannic literature, namely the Book of Pyr and the Book of Loire.
In Aranna visitors may enjoy a few books on various topics, such as history, politics, poetry, and prosaic fiction.
=== Religion ===
{{Main|Church of the Divines}}
Though a secular state, Aranna's own faith is the Church of the Divines, which operates exclusively within the province of Eiluran and the Lysoborian Host. Three temples are located in greater Aranna, two in Eiluran, located atop the Whitestrake Mountain and in the capital, and in the Lysoborian capital of Rishev.

When the Cyric sect of Tintorini declared a religious war against the Fellowship of Moonrise in Syradine, the Supreme Council of Aranna internally placed itself neutral in the affair and instructed its citizens to avoid travel through territories with followers of both religious movements.

In the early Second Era the Arannese Church of the Divines officially merged with the Church of Moonrise and formed the Arcosanctic Sect of the united Church of the Divines, which notably permits the worship of foreign gods, such as Pyr, known locally as Pyrhune, Dicio, of the Istraki Etherialist pantheon, and Shar, a deity of Kothmirean origin.

Alongside the Divine faith, citizens of the Empire indulge in following of Pyrannism and Solism.
==== Arcane Calendar ====
{{Main|Arcane Calendar}}
In the latter half of the First Era the [[Arcosanctic Church|Imperial Reclusiarchy of Aranna]] published the [[Arcane Calendar]], which served as the first system to observe and record the passage of time across Cinder, with the Founding of Aranna being the starting point of the Era.

Baseplate2: Added to former countries.

{{Infobox Nation|nation_name=Free City of Anneimd
Ciodá Llibre d'Anéin|population=7 citizens|culture=Mistense, Testifikan|form_of_government=DEMOCRATIC devolved government|leader_name=Vistor [[Xurde Prieto]]
Noyan [[Vita]] (Formerly)|religion=Secular|constitution=People's Assembly of Anneimd|image1=Flag_of_Anneimd.png|image2=Banner_of_Anneimd.png|hexcode=#5555FF|capital=Anneimd}}
'''Anneimd''', officialy known as the '''Free City of Anneimd''', (Annemi: ''Ciodá Llibre d'Anéin'') is a federal subject in [[Mistensia]], bordering the [[Diryn Imperium]] in the north, [[Ashenstrand]] in the south, [[El Bierzu]] in the east and [[Foz]] in the west (These last two also part of Mistensia). Since the Annemi revolution, the government of Anneimd is constituted in a democratic parlamentary republic, holding elections periodically to choose the members of the People's Assembly of Anneimd and voting annually to choose the ''Vistor'' ("mayor").
Anneimd is one of the oldest cities in the world, and the birth place of [[Mistense culture]], all Mistense nations trace their lineage to the historic city.
== History ==
=== Discovery and Founding ===
The area where Anneimd sits was once but a minor testifikan village, first discovered by [[bca_]] during her travels on the first few days of Cinder. She was later followed that same day by [[Vita de Marirreguera]] and [[Magellan]], the three of them founded the Town of Anneimd, Vita being the one to name it after the indigenous annemi words "Anne" (Town) and "Imd" (River). The town saw development under Vita, but bca_ and Magellan would soon depart, the former would join the [[Cauldra|Kingdom of Cauldra]], the latter would voyage the unknown world in his trusty steed Donkey Xote, eventually founding the [[Belmonte|Town of Belmonte]].

=== Pre-Tsagaan Era, The Town of Anneimd ===
When only Vita remained, becoming major and starting the transformation from a small town into a city, erecting the Miner's Quarters and creating a small commemorative monument in the plaza that remembered its discovery by bca_, he also began the construction of a great wall that was meant to surround the entire city, and planted the great farmlands of Anneimd. The people of Anneimd lived simple lives, Vita was a humble Annemi, and did not even posses a suit of diamond armour or a set of diamond tools, instead arguing that stone tools were good enough for him to keep working. Naturally, the town was underdeveloped by the time he left. It is to be noted that a great monument was erected by [[GlitchTime]] during this Era, it was built in Netherite Debris, and was seen as a sign of friendship coming from the Cauldran people. During this time, Anneimd was part of an common economic development group between Belmonte, Covilhã, and the aforementioned Anneimd, but it was soon disbanded after the Khanate engulfed the former two nations.

Some historical houses still remain in town from this time: the house of bca_, and the house of [[Chras]].

==== The Tsagaan Wars ====
Inspired by the great feats of Chras during the [[Battle of Lavard]], and in defence of his friend Magellan's [[Belmonte|realm]], Vita set out in his boat through the Mondegos to fight against the Khanate. He believed in his ideology, Chrasism, the defence of the freedom of city-states against nations, the ideal of fighting wars that seemed difficult to win, even if that meant dying for it. At the battle he was captured, and little was known of him save for the diary entries that were progressively discovered afterwards. In his absence, an Ancient Council took charge of the town's administration on the 9th Dawn of the 1st Era (15/X/2023).

==== The Return of Vita de Marirreguera ====
[[File:Noyan Anneimd.png|thumb|266x266px|Map of Anneimd's claims during the Noyan Era]]
On the 1E, Dawn 12 (06/XI/2023) Vita returns to Anneimd riding a Tsagaan steed, a donkey, he seems changed. Although still a humble Annemi, he had embraced a different way of life, he had seen the world outside and had come to tell his people about it, to show them the light of the outside world. It is know from elder councillors that he came to discuss changing the Annemi government, and after a heated debate he was appointed Noyan of Anneimd.

=== Tsagaan Era, The Noyan of Anneimd ===
During Noyan times, Anneimd's borders expanded, but the town itself didn't, and the nations surrounding it never truly recognised said borders, as no development was seen in the area. These were nuntuqs, territories meant for sheepherding and nomading, so no real infrastructure or architectural development was seen in the area. Within the town itself a few changes took place, as a small yurt was built in the main plaza, an embassy of the Tsagaan Khanate, representing its close ties to the small town, and some stone huts with hay roofs were built on the higher part of town. The [[Holy Pyrannic Empire|Pyrannian]] officials approached Vita de Marirreguera about developing a train station for [[SouthRail]], and asked for the lands south of Anneimd. Vita de Marirreguera agreed to it if the Pyrannians were to finish his project for a wall, but though accepting the proposal, they never built the wall, and instead took extra territory from Anneimd and vandalised the historical monument of Cauldro-Annemi friendship built by GlitchTime.

=== The Barbacenan Era, The City of Anneimd ===
[[File:2024-08-29 00.04.50.png|thumb|461x461px|Anneimd Church at the time of Tiagus' reform.]]
With the rise of [[Mistencism]], a campaign to revitalise the old town was envisioned by [[Tiagus Martel]], Alcaide of [[Barbacena]]. He received aproval and praise by the Noyan, who supported his endeavours to further develop and renovate the area. Never before had the town seen development like it. The historical center was expanded, a great plaza was erected, a monument to the founding fathers of the nation, a Mistensist church was built, an arena to host [[Javalada|javaladas]], a castle, the entirety of what was claimed by the town was developed into a prosperous city, full of houses and surrounded by great walls. After he left, Vita appointed [[Paco Franco]], a Covilhan official, to overlook the city in his absence, keeping order in the newly-developed city.

=== The Post-Tsagaan Era, The Free City of Anneimd ===
Up until this point there had been ties to the Tsagaan government through their shared leadership (Vita de Marirreguera was both Khan of Tsagaan and Noyan of Anneimd), which meant that Anneimd was part of the Tsagaani sphere of influence, though this didn't mean much politically. The fact the Khanate demanded more attention from Khan Vita meant that he could not focus on the development of Anneimd, only ocassionally visiting the area when he needed to distract himself from the great problems of Central Cinder. This, in practice, meant that Anneimd remained unchanged after Tiagus' reforms were done, and no more development was seen in the area, it also meant that Paco Franco had absolute control to do as he wished, since whatever complains that were made to him seemed to never reach the Khan. It is unknown whether this was for a lack of interest by Vita or if Franco's regime managed to keep the information from reaching outside the city. What is known is that his ruthlessness ended up causing the formation of a political groups which sought to dethrone the bloody dictator.

==== The Rise of Xurde Prieto and the Annemi Revolution ====

== Geography ==
[[File:District Map of Anneimd.png|thumb|District Map of Anneimd]]
The territory of the Free City is composed of the city itself and surrounding land. One river runs through the country's territory, separating the land of the city itself from most of the rest of the country. Another river forms the border with [[Adraria]] to the North-East.
Most of Anneimd is flatland, with the exception of two mountains, Monsacru and L'Angliru. The east of Anneimd is forested while the east is composed mostly of plains.

=== Territorial Organization ===
Anneimd is divided into 14 districts, 4 city or metropolitan districts, 2 rural districts and 10 uninhabited districts.
==== City Districts ====
These districts are part of Anneimd proper, and have the vast majority of population and economical activity.
* '''North District''' (or Market District): with the Anneimd Market, University and Food Warehouse and the North Gate, has some of the newest buildings in the city.
* '''East District''' (or Bullring District), a small district with the Anneimd Bullring and some older houses.
* '''South District''' (or Palace District), with the Anneimd Palace, the Castros Square, the former train station, the city park, the revolution memorial and the South Gate.
* '''West District''' (or Historical Center), with the Founder's Square, the mine, the wheat field, the West Gate, Vita's house and many historical buildings, this was the very first part of Anneimd to be settled.

==== Rural Districts ====
These districts are sparsely and only recently settled.
* '''El Rebollu''', a small industrial district, with the Chicken Nugget Factory
* '''Melás''', a small agricultural district, with the ''[[Quintana Melás]]''.
