City state roleplay. Functions within the council of Goethrael. The council is democratic. I will start at 5 players. Name: Gigirea Government: (how they get their representative on the council) Model Civilization (optional): Rome Military: (2 line description) Culture: (2 line description) Wealth: (2 line description) Technology: (2 line description) History: (1 1/2 paragraph minimum) Leader: Ultikana Major cities: (note capital) Geography: (map helpful but not necessary) Religion: (no actual religions, make it up. One paragraph/explain the nature of their atheism and why) Note: I can maybe allow more players if somebody wants to help GM. The tech level is renaissance, but no cannons. The nature of the states are based on ancient Greece+Federal Council. I may invent a Persia. Feudalistic Japan after the fall of a dynasty may also be a model. Edit: this is more about worldcrafting than following any specific guy.

Name: Raeligo Government: Every 8 years, a supreme leader is elected and may be impeached by a council of delegates. He must also not violate the constitution, unless it is amended by 3/5 of the council. The leader does not have to approve amendments. The government is very centralized and the state house lies atop a hill in the capital. Model Civilization: Rome Military: Entirely defensive. They usually hire out-of-state mercenaries, and consider military service beneath them. Thier lone 'base' on Andazaro is a mercenary hub looked down upon by most worldwide military leaders and societal elites alike. Culture: They have an extremely rich culture and are home to many intellectuals. This is the area that they are by far the most proud of. Their architecture style is large white stereotypically "Panthenon" columns and styles with hints of violet and gold. Thier art is expressionist and in the theme and style of 'St. George and the dragon' Wealth: They are traders by nature, and are no strangers to outsiders. Their far spread culture is the greatest contributor to their wealth. Thier major export is paper. Almost all foodstuffs are imported, save thier world famous wines. Technology: They have a good stock of inventors, and their base of thinkers is strong due to their high culture. They are known for the invention of the Ykrya paper (similar to strengthend papyrus). History: Founded as part of the original Goethraelian City States, Raeligo sits on an island with an artificial bridge to the mainland. The bridge is the greatest of their engineering marvels. Their proximity to many natural harbors has led to overall prosperity. This 'Golden Age' lastedfor many years, until a tyrant by the name of Goschuev Iridikan overthrew the old council. He and the Iridikian dynasty ruled for a century. His iron fist failed to stifle the island's rich culture, which led to the downfall of Zueldimo Iridikian (now banished to island of Andazaro). Revolutions against the old regime and into the placement of the current government. Their wealth and technology are recovering, as their old tyranny placed many law-enforced superstitions and wasted a good amount of money on unneeded naval fleets. They are a diplomatic nation, and have disbanded most of their military. The current generation sees themselves as 'enlightened' and is very liberalistic by our standards. Leader: High Senator Aerigim the Regal Major cities: Their colonies include the islands of Novadine (A flourishing city with a high youth population, but often breaks out in violent protest/riots), Omikida (An ancient city that they have a longstanding truce with, they would later join nations and revolt together against the Iridikians. Of great cultural importance to the Raeligo), and Andazaro (A remote desert colony with various irrigated villas of scientists and elderly, wishing for peace. Also home to their lone naval base). Their capital is the city of Raegix, home to the societal elite. Geography: Mostly flat islands. They are known as a tourist trap due to their long beaches and seas, until the old regime. Nevertheless, the beauty remains. They also have a plethora of flora and fauna. The capital house rests atop thier pride and joy, Mt. Raevig, thier city's founder. Andazaro is mostly long beaches with rivers and a dangerous inner jungle with various odd fauna, including the famed 'Indigo Fawn' Religion: Mostly atheistic, they keep a good amount of cultural custom adapted from their colonies. A few such customs are: •They always a wear a small amount of purple for good luck, and it is considered the color of royalty •All persons (male and female) wear a gemstone circlet of whatever value they can possibly afford •They believe that knowledge is the one true path to greatness Other: Currency: Jaekin Note Symbol: A sword entwined is laurels and olive branches Flag: Map: (coming soon) Strengths: Value in knowledge: the reason that the old regime failed is because they locked up the greatest minds and made farmers out of artists. They may be seen as disproportionate snobs, but they have proven that they will fight for thier expression. Friendly: they are diplomatic by nature and thier only major war was with themselves. Thier nation is overall well-liked and as the phrase goes: "Any friend of Raeligo is a friend of Goethrael, so you had better be a Raeligo to be our diplomat." Weaknesses: Entirely dependent on outside military forces: Obvious implications. If the mercenary scene is seller's market, they are a ripe fruit for the taking. Not yet stabilized: it has only been 5 years since the war of rising. Many fragments of the old regime remain, along with a mysterious order called "Sewvuk Knights" that is set on reinstating the old regime. Major factions: Trial masters: these individuals are responsible for administering the trial of knowledge, which determines a person's societal standing. Here is a list of IQs and thier correlations: 0-90: Slave. Unlike other cultures, slavery is not hereditary by default, but IQ sometimes is. 91-110: Commonfolk. Eligible for the council of delegates, but not High Senator. Usually serve as library attendants, as slaves are not allowed in places of higher learning. 111-120: Artisan. Your average craftsman, given higher learning in the field of his choice. 121-134: Scholar. Well respected member of society. Given access to many institutes of higher learning. Eligible to be Trialmaster. 135+: Aristocrat. As a rule of thumb, this is the class of nearly all High Senators. Are entitled to scholarships for life at any institute of learning. Guild Union: Nearly all artisans and laborers practice in guilds. They are given seats on various political functions to represent the needs of merchants. Aestrom University: By far the most prestigious school in Raeligo, and most likely the world. They teach on nearly all subjects. The Universiyy itself is a very large space, four walls form the center with dorms and classes within, bordered by courtyards. There are 4 wings that stretch from the center, where a marvelous stained glass dome is located. On the top of the dome is national crest, set in gold. Peacekeepers: The police force of Raeligo. Not particularly strong, but viligant. They are not nearly enough to qualify as military, and most are on loan from the Imperium. Punishments are usually in the form of farm labor, as no self-respecting Rarligo describes himself as a farmer (even winemakers go by "Cultivator"). Sewvuk Knights: These are the last vanguard of the old regime. They believe that totalitarianism is the only way, and have tried to free the Iridikians countless times.
