[hider=Elenoir] Location: Island north of Kalesia, east of Kalnach Relics: Relics are considered a part of everyday life, as the country is considered a sort of refuge from the church of idris, as it is one of the farthest points from the dominion. Evokers are generally treated with more respect and sympathy then the general populace, which has led to many citizens holding contempt towards the evoker population. Culture: The culture is predominantly separated, as many who come to Elenoir wish to stay with their own people, and districts are often unspokenly populated by specific people from diffrent countries, like a district with mostly othean refugees, or one with people from kalesia. The country seems heavily divided and restless. Military: The Navy is relatively small but ruthlessly efficient, in comparison to the land troops,who are poorly equipped and unprepared for invasion. The island is heavily defended by the well-equipped naval force, lead by some of the most notorious former pirates and naval officers who abandoned their country, making the navy very well led. Climate: The island is mostly humid, and the most northern area experiences snowstorms, making the southern part of the island much more heavily populated. the trees and animals found on the island are quite different from the ones found on the mainland, due to many years of isolation. However, many refugees have brought breeds and animals from their own countries, creating plenty of cross breeds that exist only in Elenoir. Political climate: The current leader of Elenoir is considered weak and many do not believe he can lead the country as well as others. Many have challenged the leader but have failed in duel combat with The leader, who has proved to have a strong power not known by the public. The Evoker population is intertwined with the rest of the public, but is generally disliked due to the fact they are treated with more respect and given more sympathy from the nobility and government. Religion: Religion is considered open to the public but any topic relating to faith is completely ignored in government. National Secrets/Secret Organizations: A secret branch of naval military unofficially controlled by the leader, consisting entirely of bandits and criminals un-connected to the country, often employed to attack targets that Elenoir cannot directly engage. Mythology: There is a legend that two groups of nobles first came to the island with the same idea of a safe-haven from the church of idris. The island divided, the son from each family challenged each other to a duel. But once the battle began, each of the kids had been disarmed and began to fist fight. After each son had become too exhausted to fight, they made amends and convinced the nobles to work together, one of the kids eventually even married the others sister. This created a tradition of fisticuffs as a way to settle disputes, rather then deadly dueling. A battle is also traditional to occur during a wedding, between a relative of each person getting married. [/hider]
