Asghard

Flag

Form of Government: Hereditary Monarchy
Describe the System: Asghard is run by a hereditary Monarchy, where the royal family's most worthy child is gifted the crown and takes the title 'Sensei Overlord' and is the figure of power for the Nation, but is guided by the political figures hidden from the public. They run on four main manufactures: Mining, Farming, Manufacturing and Life, where you either grow up to become a Miner, Farmer, Factory Worker or worker, or if you're in the royal family, the Sensei Overlord. You work as an adviser for the Sensei Overlord if you are not chosen for the role and are in the Royal Family. People who are gifted, especially in a way that could advance the Nation, are taken to the Capital and tested by the Sensei Overlord and his family. Most of the Factories in Asghard are Eco-friendly, consisting of Sawmills, Windmills, etc. Every city holds atleast one School and one Marketplace, and depending on the popularity and growth of the city, a Factory or two of some sort. (sawmill, windmill, etc as said above). Universities are only held at the Capital and at Tachkard.

Location on Map Desired: As North as possible, The people of this Nation enjoy the cold.
Capital: Named 'Dasghard', located North but not too North, more at the central North of the Nation. It is where the Sensei Overlord and Royal Family live in the castle, where the Sensei Overlord commands the Nation and where he/she lives.
Important Settlements:
Asrard- The most Mining-centered settlement in the Nation, where vast tunnels/caves of Mines are layed and where most people go if they become a Miner and choose to leave their hometown. The supplies mined by the mines are ran out throughout the Nation to where it's needed.
Nathshard- The most Farming-centered settlement in the Nation, where vast fields of crops are layed and where most people go if they become a Farmer and choose to leave their hometown. The crops farmed by the mines are ran throughout the Nation to where it's needed.
Ashrard- The most Factory-centered settlement in the Nation, where large factories sprawl the fields and make the supplies and tools needed to make more farms/mines/buildings/things and where most people go if they become a Factory worker and choose to leave their hometown. The supplies produced by the factories are ran throughout the Nation to where they're needed.
Tachkard- The most lifestyle-centered settlement in the Nation, where buildings such as Universities, Marketplaces, and etc are held and where most people go if they become a factory worker and choose to leave their hometown.

Description:
Cities The cities are based on whether it would be a Farming or Mining city when it's built. The Mining cities are usually built where the homes are underground and connect to entrances of mines and also connect to the surface. The Farming cities are usually built where the homes are built on the end of the farms and usually next to medium-sized buildings that hold the farming equipment (such as tractors, mules, tools, etc). The roads are built on the edges of the farms next to the houses.

Currency The currency is named 'Aqad', which starts with S (value of 0.5 American pennies), K (value of 0.3 American pennies), Sd ($1), Kd ($3), Sed ($10), Ked ($30), Seid ($100), Keid ($300), Seiud ($1000), Keiud ($3000).

Religion They belong to the Religion 'Eer Elugos', which is a religion devoted to three beliefs, "1- Supplies (food, housing, etc) can only be given through equal work. 2- Fighting destroys Nations, ruins lands, and kills. Peacefulness leads to diversity, happiness and paradise. 3- Science is a victory, living in the past leads to Civilizations crumbling." There are no Gods or Goddesses in this religion, only these three beliefs and a few Holidays. The leader of this religion (the one who shares the three beliefs and the one who organizes Holidays and etc) is Sensei Overlord, but all people in this Nation or raised with this religion, so the Sensei Overlord has so far never been recorded to be deceitful with the religion or his or her power.They also in this Religion believe three to be the luckiest number. The most known Holiday and most favored is 'Ahaf Ister', which is celebrated on the thirtieth week of every years. It is a week-long celebration where they celebrate whatever good has come of the year since the last year's Ahaf Ister week.

Language The most popular and considered the language of the Nation is named 'Yicealon', which isn't similar to any other language, but uses Chinese characters. There is no national song or anthem, but there is plenty of songs made in Asghard, many of them worshiping the Sensei Overlord or relating to Farming or Mining.

Extra Culture Most names start with the letter 'E' and include 'R' somewhere. Three is considered a very lucky number.
Important Characters
Erage Khahule- He was the first Sensei Overlord to abuse their power. This was important because it made Asghard change their leadership and organization system a bit, leading to so far having no abusive leaders since then. Erage was banished from the kingdom afterwards.
Eins Ourl- The first Sensei Overlord to be chosen.
Elger Gose- One of the most influencal into the creation of Eer Elugos.

I'm very tempted You must know that this is my kind of thing by now Gowia, It'd be good to get another shot at one of these but I'm afraid about committing knowing how these often turn out.

Thats fine I understand...I have basically reshuffled my time in regards to this RP and so whilst during the week I am normally quite busy I have a lot of time free now on the weekends and so whilst I wont be updating every night I have now made it possible for me to take this long term.

Nations Name: The Kingdom of Azor
Flag:

Form of Government:
Monarchy, however with Governors regulating the flow for each city. (Mayors for smaller cities)

Describe the System

At the very top of Azor is the King, and his family. The Royals as called by the populace is basically the ruling order of the Kingdom. Now in reality there government tasks are low since the governors have their own staff and minsters. However they also play an important part in the diplomatic processes of Azor.

Underneath Azor’s Royals are the Governors. Governors tend to have huge estates, a family and also a city under their control with minsters with them. They often speak with Royal family representatives when an important matter comes up regarding a law or diplomatic matter. However other than that, they handle the running of their city by themselves. Laws, disputes between Noblemen and commoners are handled by the courts. Major or Head offices exist in the cities, for trade, military and other major functions of society. While smaller officers are present in towns, for claims that need to be made. Power is divided evenly, and bigger functions require head offices approval before being conducted by smaller offices.

Location on Map Desired: Decent sized location, with sea access.

Capital: Near to the Sea, probably facing towards the New Continent

Major Docking City, Head Office of Trade is located here.

On Average, Azorian Cities tend to be well spaced out. City Planners spend a lot of times planning out zones for each city, and often zones are well planned to allow people to travel quickly to one end of the city to another. Foot is the preferred mode of transportation, however horses and carriages do well for travelling outside of the cities.

Culture is respected in Azor. In cities, it is common to see a small museum, or a theatre in its boundaries. Painters and Artists go to the northern parts of Azor to paint in there scenic environments. While musicians are spotted in cities playing there instruments and earning coin from the traveller.

Language or dialect in Azor varies. Villages tend to speak a local language, but however all legal documents , and verbal court proceedings are written/said by Azortian. Azortian is an extreme basic dialect, easy to learn and grasp onto. Various translators are also hired from other continents to translate during diplomatic proceedings.

The Market of Azor varies. Towns often have a small storefront, with mostly stockpiles at the back for their resources. There shipped to the major cities to be shipped and sold. The main things Azor prides it self on are its Wine, Wood and its Iron. Smelters in Bullsworth, Wineries in Landon and it’s wood production in smaller villages on the land are known to be it’s bread and butter, and but also its pride. Fishing is also an incoming trade for Azorians, and it’s known to be one of the fastest growing industries for Azor.

Currency for Azor is simple. The Office of Trade, in cooperation with the Office of Coinage makes several of coins. The Smallest coin, with the number one on both sides and the largest one is the pure gold coin, worth 100 Azorian Dollars. In total, the currency goes from: 1 , 5 , 10 , 20 , 50 , 100.

Is it me or does it seem unfair that Mors Et Stercore got veterans without Professional Army trait?

Sorry that was my typing, it was meant to be regulars as that is what was rolled. I have rectified this.
