Basic Demographics & Geography

Territory Size:
3. Your nation is smaller than average but there's still plenty of territory to work with. While the lack of endless farmland might prove an issue, you do at least enjoy the benefits of relatively small and easily defended borders.
Population:
2,400,000 (somewhat small)
Urbanization:
3. Your nation has the typical ratio or rural folk to city dwellers: that is, there's probably about 8 or 9 in the countryside for every one in the cities. What is there to say? It takes a lot of farmers to support those craftsman and merchants in the city!
Government Type:
5. Your nation is ruled by the sword, and the cogs of its "political system" are oiled with blood. Though they might put it more eloquently in order to conjure an image of legitimacy, your nation is quite frankly ruled by whatever warlord(s) are currently at the top of the food chain. This chaotic military dictatorship has the potential to perhaps transform into something more like a monarchy, but for now birthright means nothing and the man with the most soldiers at his back is always the man that lays out the law.
Political Stability:
5. You enjoy the benefit of having a serene and peaceful nation. There's barely any crime and you don't have a rebellion brewing, so rejoice!

Economy

Overall Wealth:
3. Your nation is rather weak economically, but you're developing. With a rapidly growing economy and likely a transition towards urbanization and industrialization, your people are happy. While you may not be an economic superpower yet, it's looking like you're beginning to enter a golden age that just might catapult you there.
Government's Primary Means of Generating Income:
7. Your government doesn't really spend money. It basically just demands whatever it wants, and since all the people are effectively slaves to the state, they are compelled to obey. What material wealth you have . stashed away is probably used only for foreign trade.
Technology:
2. Antiquated, your nation lags behind the rest of the world, and stubbornly clings to ancient traditions.
Agriculture:
1. Your people don't farm much, probably a result of having land of poor quality. Instead you depend heavily upon ranching and dairy. This allows for a stable and perennial source of food so long as your herds stay healthy and you protect your many grazing lands.
Natural Resources:
Tobacco, leathers, meat

Military
Military Size
8. Powerful nobles or merchants maintain private armies even in times of peace. These are effective and don't cost the central government any money, but aren't terribly reliable as they owe their loyalty to their masters rather than the nation itself.
Military Focus
8. Almost nonexistent navy that just serves to transport the army and perhaps ward off rogue pirates; very large and effective army; average amount of magic users.
Military Leadership
1. Generals are very loyal to the government but gained the position by hereditary status and not necessarily merit
Military Reputation
6. Considered indifferently domestically; considered very effective and formidable by foreigners

Basic Demographics & Geography

Territory Size:
4. Your nation has an average sized expanse of land. There's enough for agriculture, cities, and then some wilderness. Your border is large enough that smugglers can sometimes make it through, but by and large it's still defensible.
Population:
2,100,000 (small)
Urbanization:
2. Aside from your capital and perhaps one or two urban centers, you have a very highly rural population. There is likely some system such as serfdom, in which knights or other minor nobles inhabit estates that oversee a region and its people.
Government Type:
4. Your nation is ruled by one great emperor with functionally unlimited power. Beneath him is a large bureaucracy, but under this imperial system there is a meritocracy. Your magistrates and administrators have been tested and found competent; therefore, they earned their position unlike some noble that simply inherited it from his father.
Political Stability:
2. Your people are growing increasingly discontent, but so far it hasn't boiled over to the point of violence. Or if it has, your government has found a way to suppress it before it erupted into anything major.

Economy

Overall Wealth:
6. Opulence and obscene wealth define your nation. Your streets might not be paved with gold, but great monuments, beautiful works of art, and a large variety of public works stand testament to your economic power. Your government of course has the funds to do almost whatever it wants.
Government's Primary Means of Generating Income:
8. Your government requires tributes from the various nobles or cities, which leaves them up to their own discretion in finding a way to procure these taxes. In some manner, it's probably the peasants that actually end up paying for these taxes, but at least the job of collecting all that is delegated to a handful of people so that your central government doesn't have to worry about it.
Technology:
1. Slow Modernization, your nation does somewhat lags behind the rest of the world, with many of your people stubbornly clinging to traditions and conventions.
Agriculture:
9. Your nation relies heavily upon orchards and fruit plantations. Coconuts, dates, or perhaps even bananas are your main crops. For some reason all this fruit seems to make your sailors a lot less likely to get scurvy.
Natural Resources:
Citrus, hardwood, obsidian, spices

Military
Military Size
7. Relatively large noble warrior caste. Very effective, quick to mobilize, and fairly numerous, but difficult to replace if they suffer heavy losses.
Military Focus
7. Powerful navy; large and well rounded army; small but decent core of magic users. No real strategic weakness here.
Military Leadership
3. Generals are pretty competent; however, they are corrupt and play at politics
Military Reputation
8. Feared domestically; foreigners have heard rumors of atrocities committed by this military

Basic Demographics & Geography

Territory Size:
2. Your nation is certainly small and could use some breathing room. Land is an expensive and highly sought after commodity here.
Population:
3,000,000 (average)
Urbanization:
5. Your nation is the very epitome of urbanization: within your borders lies a jewel of the world, one of the largest settlements in the known world. In this way your entire nation is basically just one city that is grand and powerful enough to exert its influence over the surrounding region. A city-state!
Government Type:
9. Your nation is effectively a magocracy - that is to say, it is under the rule of magi. Whether this just means that one mighty wizard in a great tower effectively rules as a dictator or that there is an entire ruling caste of magic-users is up to you, but make sure to include unicorns.
Political Stability:
4. Your country has the occasional highwaymen, but they mostly hide in the hills and forests far out in the countryside. By and large, your realm is stable.

Economy

Overall Wealth:
2. Your nation was once in good enough shape, but recent events have caused a large recession and now your economy is shrinking. If this isn't resolved soon, major issues will arise. The people are used to a higher standard of life than they are currently experiencing, and as food supplies contract there may be mass starvation and the collapse of industry, commerce, or even government.
Government's Primary Means of Generating Income:
1. Your government employs a system of tax collectors. Acting almost like thugs, they gather money from families and businesses on a somewhat regular basis. Those that do not pay are...punished.
Technology:
1. Slow Modernization, your nation does somewhat lags behind the rest of the world, with many of your people stubbornly clinging to traditions and conventions.
Agriculture:
10. Your nation is not naturally a fertile or bountiful land, but through great feats of engineering your people have conquered this issue. You have cut terrace farms into the sides of mountains, built hanging gardens in your cities, cultivated vineyards in the rolling hills, and planted fruit-bearing trees along the streets. As your population grows, the need for food demands that your people conquer ever more of the harsh wilderness with labor-intensive construction projects.
Natural Resources:
Olive oil, herbs, quicksilver, trace deposits of exotic metals

Military
Military Size
4. A school of battlemages, but little else to serve as a standing army. Levies and mercenaries both utilized during times of war to create an army of average size.
Military Focus
6. Poor navy; small and rather poor army; lots of magic usage in battle and a few very powerful wizards.
Military Leadership
1. Generals are very loyal to the government but gained the position by hereditary status and not necessarily merit
Military Reputation
7. Popular domestically, considered unremarkable by most foreigners

Basic Demographics & Geography

Territory Size:
3. Your nation is smaller than average but there's still plenty of territory to work with. While the lack of endless farmland might prove an issue, you do at least enjoy the benefits of relatively small and easily defended borders.
Population:
1. 1,800,000 (small)
Urbanization:
4. Your nation is unusually urbanized. You might have a lot of towns or a few really big cities, but either way a fair amount of your people have migrated to the population centers. This opens the door to much more industry and commerce but also leaves more of your people vulnerable to the dangers of city life: organized crime, filth, and disease.
Government Type:
2. Your nation is ruled by the shine of gold and silver. In a society where money is power, the wealthy elite form a plutocratic government. Bloodline is still important (because of course a person born into a wealthy family is worth more than some pauper!) but your ancestry becomes irrelevant the moment that you run out of coin. At least there is some degree of social mobility in that a poor merchant can perhaps work his way up into the elite; in more traditional and aristocratic countries, rising up might not even be possible.
Political Stability:
3. There's some mild urban unrest with criminal gangs and corruption, but nothing threatening to overthrow your country.

Economy

Overall Wealth:
6. Opulence and obscene wealth define your nation. Your streets might not be paved with gold, but great monuments, beautiful works of art, and a large variety of public works stand testament to your economic power. Your government of course has the funds to do almost whatever it wants.

Government's Primary Means of Generating Income:
5. Tariffs on trade (both internal and foreign) provide your government with most of its money. Of course, your merchants probably don't like this and there's probably a lot of smugglers that try their best to avoid these hefty taxes.
Technology:
4. Technological Parity; you're keeping up with the rest of Albion pretty well.
Agriculture:
7. With mighty rivers, vast lakes, and/or a sizeable coast on the bountiful seas, your people primarily rely upon fishing for their food. As such, your port cities are unique in that they don't necessarily depend on the countryside to feed them at all.
Natural Resources:
Cloth, dyes, naval equipment

Military
Military Size
10. Strong navy with small but very effective corps of marines, a small army that is noticeably lacking in cavalry, a few magic users
Military Leadership
7. Generals are wealthy citizens that purchased their positions from the government; they are somewhat competent but often inexperienced; decadent
Military Reputation
1. Unpopular domestically; considered devious by foreigners

@Dark Light

I do like both the concept and you're making good progress. I'll officially accept it just based off what I've seen so far.

As you work on filling in those last details, I'd suggest elaborating the economy part to at least mention your resources or any trade.

edit: typing on phones is hard. usually it just devolves into typo-ing

Basic Demographics & Geography

Territory Size:
5. Your nation is "blessed" with a significantly larger than average amount of land. While you may have a great deal of opportunities to utilize both your ample farmlands and wilderness, your borders are hard to defend and your settlements are spread out which can impede communications.
Population:
6,750,000 (a large population)
Urbanization:
4. Your nation is unusually urbanized. You might have a lot of towns or a few really big cities, but either way a fair amount of your people have migrated to the population centers. This opens the door to much more industry and commerce but also leaves more of your people vulnerable to the dangers of city life: organized crime, filth, and disease.
Government Type:
3. Your society is a feudal monarchy. Quite typical, there is a king who inherited the throne from his father, and then there are all manner of other aristocrats: dukes and barons and knights all swear fealty to one another in exchange for control of land, all in a complicated system of legal obligations...
Political Stability:
5. You enjoy the benefit of having a serene and peaceful nation. There's barely any crime and you don't have a rebellion brewing, so rejoice!

Economy

Overall Wealth:
5. Your nation is struggling and somewhat poor. The government and upper class are doing well enough, but the middle class of merchants and tradesmen are small and most of your people still occupy themselves with subsistence activities. That being said, at least they aren't starving in the streets.
Government's Primary Means of Generating Income:
3. Your various churches regularly gather money from those in attendance (for some reason, under this system church attendance tends to be mandatory) and then the temple passes some along to the government. In this way, your clergy essentially act as tax collectors.
Technology:
2. Antiquated, your nation lags behind the rest of the world, and stubbornly clings to ancient traditions.
Agriculture:
2. What your nation lacks in the way of farmland is made up for in the sheer bounty of its wilderness. Fishing, hunting, and plant gathering support your population. Unfortunately, this system doesn't support quick population growth or large food surpluses, so gathering food is always something on your peoples' minds.
Natural Resources:
Furs, lumber, iron, small deposits of gold

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

@Cyclone

If you've got ogres near the mountain range which I just brainfarted and forgot the name of (ironheart???), I've got a post in progress with one of my side characters. I don't know what to do with them atm because I said in my writing "Everything seemed rather perfect".

So naturally now it has to turn not perfect. And an angry pillaging ogre would be a great way to do that.

@WrongEndoftheRainbow

Skagoth's horde is actually heading east and will therefore be rampaging around those regions, yes. My only concern is that the timelines for this might not align seeing as the events of all my posts (except the one with Aihtiraq appearing before Whisper) take place prior to the Realta attack.

...though I suppose that since the Realta wouldn't be directly attacking the ogres, it probably isn't a big deal and there's room for some grey area.

Welp, most of my stuff is dependent on that collab getting done so you all know what that means

Moar ogre! Horray for backup plotlines!

Now do you guys want more Stog/Grekogork/Skagoth, or should I pick up where I left off with Ommok? I need to advance both plotlines but I don't have any preference for which one goes first
