The Most Serene Dual Monarchy Of Anstatt wrote:
OOC Damn good, factbook. You go, sir!

1. Imagine one of Yohannes' dominions, protectorates or other region wishes to leave the Commonwealth. Are they allowed to leave, or will they be treated as revolting, and put down with force?

2. Several languages are recognised as being "official". Does this creates problems in military and administrative tasks (eg. orders given in one language, minorities wishing to be served in their own language,..)

3. Education is the responsibility of each different country. Are they all reaching the same level, or do minor differences occur?

4. And lastly, (oh so cliché ). What is the official opinion of the Most Serene Dual Monarchy of Anstatt in Yohannes?

Well, thank you...

1.) Differing circumstances will generate equally differing reactions. In-Character wise, the Yohannesian Crown will obviously react according to the nature and underlying causes of that supposed scenario.

2.) Indeed, it easily inflict numerous problems, though such has not affect Yohannes too much; thanks to the confederate nature of the nation; that of a collection of nineteen Yohannesian countries.

3.) Minor differences may easily be identified and spotted by neutral observers, realistically speaking.

4.) Mostly positive, In-character wise. If I am not wrong.. I remember you're one of my clients in either VMK Aktiengesellschaft or Royal Beaufort Shipwrights Guild..? or I may be wrong.

Trivval wrote:Given the Apartheid attitude of the people of Yohannes no less than fifty years ago, does this attitude remain in the mindset of some of the older or certain groups of the polulace and reflect against the Trivvalian Landers in anyway?

Yep, certainly.

Trivval wrote:Would the Yohannesian Aristocracy accept aristocratic positions from the Dominion? Given this and the former question, would they accept the former aristocratic positions from Trivval, some Tribal while others are Hereditary?

Yep, we will accept aristocratic positions from the Dominion of Trivval. We will, also, sensibly accept various former aristocratic positions and titles of Trivval.

Trivval wrote:Would the Yohannesian government, ie Aurel III, give out hereditary/honorary titles?

Yep.

Trivval wrote:Would it be possible to draw up a system of Peerage similar to the system that was/is used in England? (Ref: Peerage (Wikipedia))

Yep.

New acardia wrote:Are there any Eastern Orthodox Christians in Yohannes?

Realistically speaking; there will of course be quite a substantial minority (we are talking in the range of not more than ~1-3% however) of Eastern Orthodox Christians throughout the Crown Commonwealth Realms overseas (outside of mainland or proper Yohannes in Gholgoth itself).

New acardia wrote:and what does Yohannes think of New Acardia?

Mostly neutral.

I believe that we have not yet established diplomatic relationships with one another through the amalgamation of an ambassadorial and/or consulate mission within one another's border?

New acardia wrote:OOC: Nice factbook

The question and answering sessions are OOC, so no need to put the OOC tag into an OOC subject.

Also, thanks!

Its the Navy of the Yohannesian Crown Commonwealth Realms.

OC: ’s the difference?

IC: From our peoples point of view their one and the same...

OC2: So, whatever entity you decide to call it, you stole our nation's intellectual property and that's just not cool.

Which gets back to my original point, since most nations are going to interact with your government military forces overseas and as stated by you your overseas navy is commonly refereed to as the Royal Commonwealth Navy, the same as mine.

How would you like my government to explain to those nations that mistakenly confuse our nation's Naval service for yours?

Or do you not mind our government's military forces pretending to be part of the Crown Realms when it suits us or strikes our fancy when deemed to our advantage.

After all there’s two Royal Commonwealth Navies out there.

You may try, UE... you may try.

Also, how's UEMS going along..?

The Scandinvans wrote:How do your people view the Glorious Empire of the Scandinvans and its enlightened civilization?

His Majesty's Government and that of the Crown, as a vanguard of regional liberty, more or less disagree with the tyranny known to mankind as that of His Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Scandinvan, and the very empire pf The Scandinvans itself.

The Crown Commonwealth of Yohannes however deeply respect the diplomatic, economic and military strength of its southern island neighbour. Furthermore, as a fellow nation within the brotherhood known as the Gholgoth Regional Alliance; it is without a shadow of one's doubt that, if push come to shove in the face of inferior foreign aggressors, the Crown Commonwealth of Yohannes shall stand hand in hand with her Gothic brother; that of the Scandinvans Empire and its people.

Edit: Long live the Empire of The Scandinvans and the Crown Commonwealth of Yohannes!

Right, question time.

1. What is the Yohannesian view on the....oddity that is Morrdh/Commonwealth Colonial Authority? (Tis pretty much a loosely 1960s British Commonwealth based nation with extensive space assets)

2. The Yohannesian view on the technology used by Morrdh/CCA? (sure I have a FTL drive but as Lamoni can attest I don't actually get any advantages and I probably have more limitations than most)

3. Is cricket widely played in Yohannes?

Urarail wrote:What is the Commonwealth's opinion of the Amalgamate's collapse and dissolution into rival factions, and by extension the subsequent wars in Tetrakon?

Hey Urarail! Thanks for the question.

In-Character wise, it certainly throw His Majesty's Government off-balance, heavily, at that.

The prospect of seeing one of Yohannes' close allies (through the still existing Verstehen Accords) collapsed and disintegrated into various geo-political entities, does not bode well with both the Yohannesian Crown and that of the Government.

In terms of the geo-political condition of Tetrakon at the present; His Majesty's Government has identified the possibility of a further closer relationship with the Commonwealth of Britannia/Reformed Britannia; a nation which was known for it's economic and military prowess historically, to replace the void which the disintegration of the Amalgamate inflicted upon the existence of at least one close and reliable strong Yohannesian ally in the region of Tetrakon itself.

I also have one question Urarail... what is your government's In-Character opinion (be they positive or negative) of the Crown Commonwealth of Yohannes?

by **Estainia** » Mon Apr 16, 2012 2:41 pm

Fascinating well constructed factbook, truly. I was wondering when did you become very...British Empire-y? (In regards to the Commonwealth, etc). Again, excellent job.

By nation, did you mean His Majesty's Government... or the general population's popular opinion of Polkopia?

Polkopia wrote:2. How do people become citizens of your nation?

You have to be born in Yohannes to become a citizen of the nineteen countries.

Identical to this: viewtopic.php?p=9017381#p9017381

The Parthians wrote:-What are the largest imports of the Yohannesian Commonwealth?

Trivval wrote:Foreign Currency.

Trivval was right.

VMK Aktiengesellschaft generate around the range of ~$50 trillions annually, whilst Royal Beaufort Shipwrights Guild generate around ~$15 trillion or so annually.

Yohannesische Bundesbank generate ~$100 trillion or so annually. The total revolving assets of all the aforementioned three largest corporate entities of Yohannes however, even I myself don't roleplay with, because that would be extremely wankish and bad, which is undesirable to me as it is not my wish to exploit them to my advantage.

I can, of course, but I won't.

More questions. Whoopee!

- What does the populace think of VMK AG?
- How many people are employed by VMK AG?
- What is the Yohannesian view on piracy? and if piracy was found in Yohannesian waters, what would be done to stop it?
- How much control does Yohannes have over the rest of the Commonwealth?
- If a nation wished to voluntarily join the Commonwealth, what requirements would it need to meet before being considered, and what process does the government have to go through before a new member is accepted?
- How popular are video games in Yohannes?
- Are there any regular major sporting events that occur within Yohannes and the wider Commonwealth? and if so, what are the sports played?

Hi Morrdh!

Morrdh wrote:1. What is the Yohannesian view on the....oddity that is Morrdh/Commonwealth Colonial Authority? (Tis pretty much a loosely 1960s British Commonwealth based nation with extensive space assets)

OOC or IC opinion? OOC, I love that idea and I don't see why I wouldn't like it. Admittedly I feel that you're concentrating more on the story aspect of that development, and thus I see nothing wrong with acknowledging fully such an extensive space assets of Morrdh in my roleplaying universe.

IC-wise, His Majesty's Government admire the Crown of Morrdh and Her Government for its commitment upon the advancement of science and technological development. Furthermore, the fact that many of Yohannes' allies (the Holy Empire of Stevid, Free Republic of Lamoni, Lyran Protectorate, etc.) are historical major nations of Greater Dienstad, and therefore from the same region as Morrdh further reinforce the trust and approval which His Majesty's Government has towards Morrdh and Her people.

Morrdh wrote:2. The Yohannesian view on the technology used by Morrdh/CCA? (sure I have a FTL drive but as Lamoni can attest I don't actually get any advantages and I probably have more limitations than most)

IC-wise, as I've said, His Majesty's Government do admire the effort which the Commonwealth of Morddh has made towards the advancement of peaceful science and technological discovery.

OOC-wise, I think you are cool and not a power-player; thus I don't have any reservation of having your extensive CCA in my roleplaying universe.

Oh, I/we will do more then try… :twisted:

Word to the wise its best not to tempt fate when dealing with the true Commonwealth because we’re sneaky, devious, crafty little bastards who don’t or won’t play by the rules.

Want proof, case in point-look to your left. Look familiar?

We love being the Commonwealth {Realms}. You want to know the difference, We make it look good…

If it makes you feel any better, our intelligence services know what you’re going to do before you even do.

Hence their motto: See All, Know All, Trust Nothing…

As for UEMS, it’s dead for all practical purposes and just as well.

P.S. Want further proof, wonder on over and take a gander at my NS page-especially the names.

God Save the King & Queen of the Crown Commonwealth Realms.

Hey Yohannes, I was just looking through your assorted threads, they look great.

Although our governments do not share embassies, we have purchased from your storefront and we are both members of ANTO. So, noting that we border your Commonwealth colony in Sondria and noting that we have had strained/tense relations with Kylarnatia in the past, what is the opinion of regular citizens and of your government regarding the Imperial Federation of Crontor?
