'''Kurutuk''', officially the '''Elven Diarchy of Kurutuk''', is a constitutional diarchy situated in the far south of the main continent on Cinder. It is home to the "[[Kuruki]]" (or elves), who have inhabited the area for millennia. Kurutuk borders the [[Holy Pyrannic Empire]] to the west and the [[Dwarven Kingdom of Durnath]] to the north and east.. Kurutuk's foreign policy centers around trade with other nations and isolationism, preferring not to meddle in the wars of men.

Kurutuk is a constitutional diarchy. The two heads of state, called "Arani" (singular: Aran) share power equally. The Arani jointly appoint ministers to serve as both advisors and officers of the state. Taken together, the Arani and the ministers make up parliament, who has the responsibility for making all laws. The ministers serve at the will of the Arani, with the exception of the Nuk Minister who is democratically elected. The five ministers are as follows:

# Minister of Justice - Oversees the courts and gives determinations on the interpretations of the law.
# Minister of the Interior - Oversees infrastructure construction and maintenance as well as developing economic policy.
# Minister of Foreign Affairs - Serves as diplomat to foreign nations and with outside persons.
# Commander of the Order - Leads the Order of Kretena, the military forces of Kurutuk.
# The Nuk Minister - Democratically elected, serves as the voice of the commoners. Holds veto power. Serves for one month terms.

An Aran or any of the parliamentary ministers may submit a bill to the floor for voting. The bill passes with a majority of the ministers voting "yes" and both Arani voting "yes", or all of the ministers voting "yes" and one Aran voting "yes". The Nuk Minister may veto any bill once per term. That bill, and similar bills, may not be brought to the floor again for the remainder of the Nuk Minister's term.

The Arani will also appoint a Regent from among the parliamentary ministers who shall temporarily gain the powers of an Aran in case of one's prolonged absence.

=== Local Administration ===
The territories of Kurutuk are divided into subdivisions called "Pelasi" (singular: Pelas), which is managed by an Aragnor. The Aragnor is responsible for the internal affairs, including trade, infrastructure, law enforcement, and defense, of their Pelas and may pass laws in accordance with the laws of parliament. Parliament is also given the power to override laws made by the Aragnor. The Aragnori serve at the will of the Arani and may be removed or replaced for any reason.

[[File:Flag of Danouvia-Scneimunt.png|thumb|Flag of Danouvia Scneimunt-made by Aron]]
Danouvia-Scneimunt, officially known as the Revolutionary State of Danouvia-Scneimunt, is a Revolutionist state located in the far south of the continent of Cinder. The capital is Scneimunt city in the north-east of the country below the highest peak on the continent of Cinder, Scneimunt mountain. It is bordered by the [[Commonwealth of Sanéa]] to the north-east, [[Firgards]] to the north, The [[Holy Pyrannic Empire]] to the east and [[Kurutuk]] to the south, taking it's colonies into account it also borders [[Sprúsia]].

Danouvia-Scneimunt first emerged as a state after being granted independence as the County of Scneimunt during the fall of the Grand Duchy of Danouvia, later on it was raised to a Grand Duchy itself and proclaimed to be Danouvia-Scneimunt, to the anger of Messenia and Dirynum. During March of 2024 the country experienced a revolution, which succeeded in creating a revolutionary government and toppling the Grand Duke. Later on Danouvia-Scneimunt became a member of the revintern in which it still is to this day.

== Etymology ==
The name Danouvia-Scneimunt comes from the lands of Danouvia and Scneimunt, the former part has caused some contreversy among the residents of the [[Commonwealth of Sanéa]] as the area of Danouvia proper is not in the revolutionary state of Danouvia-Scneimunt. Despite this, the name was chosen as the then head of house Kazymir allowed Count Stefan Sagadyn to elevate himself to Grand duke and also because the area was settled by residents of the former Grand Duchy of Danouvia and because the County of Scneimunt itself was a vassal of the Grand Duchy.

The name Scneimunt is taken from the region of Scneimunt, which recieves it's name from the mountain of Scneimunt, which is the highest peak on continental Cinder and was for a while the highest known peak in the world. It was first written down as Scnémut translating roughly to Snowy peak in the Pannun language. Later on it was changed to Scnémunt and then finally to Scneimunt.

== History ==

== Geography ==
Danouvia-Scneimunt is situated in the southern tip of the continent of Cinder. It is a predominantly mountainous land, with it's highest peak being Scneimunt mountain which reaches all the way up to y: 218. Danouvia-Scneimunt posses only 1 surface body of freshwater, that being the Valewood lake, which is in the far east of the country. Indigenous tree types are spruce, oak, dark oak, birch and jungle.

== Culture ==
While Danouvia-Scneimunt may not be rich in riches, one thing it is rich in is culture. The nation is famed for it's numerous architectural landmarks, considered some of the highest quality on Cinder. While the Danouvian buildings are high quality, they are also very expensive and time consuming to build and so there has been some contreversy as Danouvian builders did not finish the backs of these buildings. In May of 2024, a breakthrough was made, as it was decided by the Scneimunt city authorities to finish the backs of the buildings in the city.
