Edit: Anyone mind if I make my religion the major religion among NPC elves?


Well, the elves in my nation are the priests of a sacrifice-hungry fire god, so your religion won't be very present in the empire.
The Kingdom of Coromis





Capital: Rausten
Capital Population: 18 000
Other Major Settlements:
Population: 1 200 000
Racial demographics: Coromis is the land of the orcs, and though other races may be found here and there, they are few in number.

Social dynamics:
Fashion:
Calendar:
Art: (If applicable)
Law: (If applicable)
Education: Given the complete lack of a centralized government, education varies between strongholds and villages.
Lanuages:
Type of Government: Though in theory Coromis is a kingdom, with a high king as head of state, it is more of a federation of all the autonomous strongholds, each of which has a representative at the Council, which takes the actual decisions of the nation. The King is merely the chieftain of the most powerful clan at a given time, and their reigns rarely last a decade before they are overthrown by another clan.
Influence and relations: Coromis is a client state of the Rozarrian Empire. This is a complex and constantly shifting relationship, as the Orcs are difficult allies to have, and the constant flux of power within the kingdom makes it difficult to follow its foreign policy. In general, the agreement between Coromis and Rozarria stipulates that Rozarria would provide Coromis with military protection against the Teutons to the south as well as a tribute in exchange for the exclusive employment of several prominent orc mercenary companies.



Trading and tax: Trade is virtually non-existant within Coromis. The various Orc strongholds have no interest in bartering between each other, and the very mercantile occupation is seen as unworthy of any true orc. Occasional merchant caravans do pass through the land, travelling between Rozarria and Teuton, but they are few in number, as the dangers of the route make it undesirable.
Major industries: It has been said that the single greatest export of Coromis are its soldiers. Most orcs are expected to earn their place in society by joining a mercenary company; those who do not are ostracized.
Major Associations: Though there exists small orc companies in the hundreds, only five truly stand out, due to their reputation and might: The Brotherhood, known for its bravery in battle and unfaltering loyalty to their employer; The Ravagers of Desnoth, a brutal company infamous for the horrors it inflicts on civilians it encounters; The Knights, who are equiped and trained in the fashion of mankind; The Long-Axe Company, which boasts the largest size, having almost twenty thousand warriors under its name; and the Torth Company, which, though the smallest, is the longest-living orc company, and also the most famous and songs and legends.
Currency: Orcs mint no coins of their own, and have little use for them in any case. They rather horde the coinage of foreign nations, as a sign of a chieftain's power.

Hey, can I create an NPC client state affiliated with my nation?

Edit: I offer you guys a map of the world, as it is at the moment of this post (Sorry about the font :)):

It should be in the hider of the turn-changing post.
Well, the next turn has started, and everyone got excellent rolls except for me. :(

The first age will last another 3 turns before the second starts. Do you guys still want to pool resources for an elder race?
TURN 4



The world groans as the gods play with its fabric. It is still silent, with only a hint of the turbulent times dawning on it.

Rinecar [Jangel13]: 9 (Now 15)

Crossbows have been around since 420 AD, and gunpowder has been used since the Greek ages, supposedly. But there was definitely gunpowder by 1044 AD. Also, plate mail with no lamellar elements wasn't until about mid-1400's.


Gunpowder and crossbows have existed for a long time, true, but by that logic steam engine technology is over 2000 years old. In the year 1000 crossbows weren't the norm on the battlefield, and gunpowder was only a thing in the far east.

Anyway, I'm not trying to get into a historical pissing match here over who knows more than who; I'm just saying that I'd like crossbows and such to be available.
On technology: I'd prefer it to be pre-1300, which would give us platemail and crossbows, but exclude gunpowder.
