Geography
The chocolate lands have a low amount of wild candy beasts, but the ones that are there are known to be incredibly deadly, such as the Great Candy Wolves and the chocolate bears. However, their tamed candy beasts are quite the opposite. For example, The Chocolate Bunny, is a fast and rabid beat mounted by chocolate warriors, Or the Truffles, which can hull large amounts of heavy cargo from one place to another over any amount of time. The land is filled with mountains around its borders that are mined for rich and plentiful chocolate ore, which act as a natural barrier. However, once you go past that you find the lush and fertile land that feeds the chocolate cities' massive populations. At the sea, They have a plentiful amount of beasts in the milk sea that they hunt to eat as well. It is a great climate, one that feels like a perpetual spring breeze for them.
Military
The Chocolate Theocracy has many sayings and lessons in its military. Too many to count. So we shall skip to the 3 important bits. Their masonry allows them to build the most durable of cities and they also have excellent crafting ability which allows them to create strong and sturdy gear. However, this costs them numbers they could have. Their ships are strong and powerful, but few compared to some other nations such as the raiders to the north. They do not need to much of a navy either, as the milk sea is firmly in their grasp and those of the same belief as them. The Land army is where they really shine. There are 5 qualities of chocolate in the military, first is light brown which is common even for the peasants to have, that is not to say that its pitifully weak. Next is regular brown quality chocolate ore. It is a sign of the middle class of the same color. Armies with this equipment are usually the average and are bale to hold their own, beat, or fend off other enemy armies. After which is the Dark Chocolate nobility, they have the higher quality items for their use that gives them a better edge against regular armies. After that you have the White chocolate, Usually members of the clergy who come to heal the wounded or paladins to purge the infidels, they without a doubt have the highest quality. The colors do not simply represent the the quality of the weapons they use, but also of the army itself. Light brown weapons will have light brown peasants carrying them, as such they are most likely untrained and peasant miltia. Dark brown would signify aristocracy with disciplined army and excellent gear. The military of the Theocracy is strong and large due to the need to protect candydom from heretics. It is highly organized and while is mainly organised based on class, it is possible to grow in rank and ascend in color through merit. This is rare, except in the fabled Pitch Black Chocolate Inquisition, which protects candydom from internal threats such as heresy. Their black color and gear means they surpass all other ranks with a devotion, skill, and gear of legends.
