Your opinion on a interesting fact about the AN (II)

[Soleos]

How pious, but could also have dangerous possibilities by its politicians.

---

Since Humans in the Technocracy stopped ageing between 25 and 35 (their peak) and stay that way until they reach 100 (average life expectancy at 140) before ageing normally again (cell degradation begin to age rapidly after 101), and given how 'androgynous-feminine' or 'lean and toned' are two standards of beauty imposed on men, a 73 year old XY chromosome could look like this:

[Kaverdia]

Oh... ok.

Despite possessing a powerful Space Force, hardly any spaceships are actually in use since Kaverdia's moon, Laro, and the rest of the system are under the control of an extradimensional alien hive mind called The Screechers. The Laro campaign was a 20 year long, Ill-fated attempt to take back Laro and establish a stronghold so they could expand further. It ended with the Screechers fortifying Laro even further, and the Empire is currently seeking out nations to help lead an attack on Laro, which would involve a team of assassins going in to kill their leader, Gerrox, while Kaverdian forces take back the surface of Laro.

[Kombinita Socialisma Demokratio]

I see that you have found the magic mushrooms.

We are a direct* democracy. Anyone who will be affected by the law and passes a maturity test (what we use instead of age for the age of majority) may vote, excluding voting for one's own salary.

*But we still must follow a constitution de jure

[Knessniet]

"This is literally the worst thing I have ever seen. At least my people are oppressed by ME instead of themselves!"
- Grand Duke Herman XIII

In Knessniet, the only man who the Duke bows to is Patriach Frederick I, the current Patriach of the Knessian Church.

[Tundra Terra]

How...quaint.


Due to both the extensive militarization, mandatory conscription, and brutal rites of passage has made the average Tundran a formidable soldier to contend with on the battlefield. This also directly translates into some of the most organized and murderous criminals to ever live. The Eisen Jaegar Police Force had to therefore up their training levels to that of special forces to keep the criminals at bay and to stay within the nation. As much as the world hates the Tundrans for their chronic warmongering...the fact its monsters are held back does humanity a major service.

[The Atlantean Islands]

Terrans are unsung heroes.

San Giuseppe is an island under the jurisdiction of the Soleanna Metropolitan Area that is the most densely populated area in Atlantis. With a population of 160,000 people in 1.1 square kilometre of land, this thing is one of the most densely populated areas on Earth. The island is accessed by bridges.

It is often nicknamed "Satellite", after a similar setting in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds. Aptly, some San Giuseppians, as their residents are called, call the rest of Soleanna "Tops".

[Stratia and Altis]

Eh,i guess it's fine.


Most of the AAF's hardware consists of outdated or long-since decommissioned for service equipment used by NATO forces. Troopers wear a mixture of early 21st century U.S. Army ACU-style uniforms patterned in a fractal digital green camouflage, while standard-issue combat helmets are old PASGT helmets that have been modified to mount night vision goggles.

[Fox Shogunate]

Ouch. Doesn't sound very safe.

---

At the end of 20th century, there were only 6 monarchies left, including the Fox Shogunate. One of them got invaded by an another country, in one of them, referendum abolished the monarchy, and a revolution took place in two of them. Until 2015, Shogunate was basically the only country in its world, which had monarchy, but not anymore, obviously.

[Persagonian Republic]

Seems like your world is filled with rabid Jacobins.

---

After the Iranian Revolution, anti-monarchist sentiments rose drastically in favor of republicanism and constitutionalism. These republicans either advocated for a secular democracy or an Islamic republic. Though, supporting monarchism or Pahlavi revivalism is considered political suicide in the 80s and 90s; there exist a minor monarchist party led by the Pahlavi Crown Prince as well as a small community of Pahlavi royalists in modern day Iran.

It not only seems, but is filled with them, so... yeah.

[Frievolk]

You'd be surprised at how much popularity Monarchism (that it to say, Pahlavi Dynasty) has in OTL Iran. Suffice it to say Republicanism is extremely unpopular right now, at least in Iran proper.

The second World War was much much more destructive in The Erstwelt than it was in Our Timeline, and the majority (9 out of every 10 dead person) of the casualties, both military and civilian, were killed in actual battles. The Holocaust did not happen (though the Arabs did try their hand at total annihilation of the Jews, but failed at it spectacularly. In Europe Proper, there was no targeted fatal discrimination of the Jews or other ethnicities) but since even more of the world was involved in the war (An extensive war in The American Continent, Africa, and The Middle East apart from the one in East Asia and Europe), the total casualties reach up to 150 million (though the real number is estimated to be up to 200), almost one million of which were killed by the Nuclear Bombardments in Japan.
The most important result of this war was that the surviving countries (The British Empire, The German Empire, Vermont, The French Commune, Frievolk, etc.) decided to form the World Assembly, which in our world has actual legislative and judicial powers over countries. (It has only used that power once, on "The Orange Free State"^* at the height of Apartheid)


*: Our Version of OTL Union of South Africa

[Kyria]

That’s quite horrific. I’m still thinking up what WWII was like in the Heerwereld, but I doubt I’ll use the Holocaust stuff. Post-WWI Germany in the Heerwereld was pretty much Valkist rather than Nazi.

---

In Kyria most persons dress in plain dress or often wear homemade clothing, or generally plain clothing. Branded clothing isn’t very popular and it is the more liberal youth that dress according to modern OTL standards. Female teenagers are often chided by their older, more traditional mothers and relatives.

[Zeonk]

Quite old fashioned but not necessarily bad either.

While a lot of Earthnoids have plenty of reasons to not like Zeon (Colony Drop), there are more collaborators than one would expect. Prominent examples are the Belka Munitions company in occupied North America, anti-Federation militant groups in the Middle East and Africa and even former countries (such as Costa Rica which seceded and declared neutrality after a coup to avoid the Zeon forces in Operation Elephant).

[Karamiko]

I suppose that's to be expected. It must be spectacularly difficult to get seven billion people to all agree on something.

The Antarctic Treaty fell apart along with the U.N. during the climate shift, but in a sense, its geographical definition survived: everything beyond 60 degrees south is the territory of the Free Republic.

[Moroccan Empire]

The UN is the most useless establishment in history, I’m sure its collapse had little impact on anyone.

After the conquest of Iberia, the Moroccan government encouraged Moroccans to settle in Spain & Portugal as a way to integrate them into the empire.

[Knessniet]

AAN: Quite an interesting way to draw a boundary.

AN: Muslims back in Iberia? Well, I think that calls for another reconquista!

---

The Grand Duke has often been compared to previous fascist leaders from around the world. The interesting part is that many of them are distant cousins of him, with the most prominent being Adolf Hitler, his 12th cousin once removed.

[Karamiko]

Oh, goodness! I can only hope the Grand Duke isn't too similar to that particular cousin...

Vostok is the only city in the East Antarctic interior, and as a result, Vostok Prefecture is far larger than its counterparts. It takes up nearly a third of the country's area!

[Kyria]

It seems madness and ludicrous ideals runs in the family.

AN: That is... massive, to say the least.

---

The Kyrian Church heavily disapproves of divorce and remarrying. People may not divorce except for spousal abuse or martial unfaithfulness, and it is largely socially unacceptable to remarry 5 years after a separation.

[Veradelle]

Isn't spousal abuse and unfaithfulness the two main reasons people divorce anyway? To be honest, if I ever got married then divorced I highly doubt I'd get married again, let alone in just five years.

On average 300 tornadoes hit Veradelle every year. Most are relatively weak ranging between EF0 and EF1. However, destructive tornadoes are possible.

[Stratia and Altis]

Yikes.



The Village of Oreokastro was Abandoned during the Civil war,Because of Unexploded Landmines and a Cluster bomb that Devastated the Civilian life there.

[Karamiko]

It sounds like that was for the best, then.

Our baseball hats are conical, like the Vietnamese nón lá.

[Fox Shogunate]

Well... For a multicultural country like yours, it makes sense.

The deepest city in our world is Mariana City, which is built in Mariana Trench, as name suggests. It was visited only in the 50s, by a sea expedition in a special submarine.

However, historically, many sea creatures reported encounters with strange Evolved Ones, which seemed to dwell only in very deep seas. Some of them have also noticed ''weak city lights'', when being deep into the ocean. Also, when city was discovered, it was found out, that its buildings in general were a mix of elements from many periods - beginning from ancient, to even modern (for that time) period. Apparently city's inhabitants collected sunken ships in the less deeper ocean parts for material of their houses.

Even after it was discovered, it was still inaccessible for a long time, as city's council decided to ban the entrance of researcher groups in the city. It has been opened up only recently, and even now, only a few tourists visit it, as deep sea tourism is an expensive thing. City still has maintained its lifestyle, and unique architecture.

In past, it was also a source of conspiracy theories about a secret alien base in Mariana Trench. Truth was more simple, of course - it was a simple, yet unusual city.

[The Zravvisk]

We'd be happy to fill the next few submarines to there.

The is a popular saying among admirals that done their research on the Armada, "Never follow the Armada into any system you don't know everything about, it's one of the fastest ways to lose a fleet." Few have wondered the stars like we have, or know their special proprieties that can turn the tide of battle. We already know where all the galaxy's dangers are and how to counter them, like pulsars that remain dormant for most of the time until violently activating and disabling any ship that doesn't have all power to shields, or nebulas filled with unstable compounds that react explosively with energy shields. Our enemies find them nasty surprises.

[Knessniet]

Interstellar warfare is WAY beyond the capabilities of this nation, so good job.

In Knessniet, the magistrates often forward cases of heresy, apostasy, and blasphemy to the Holy Inquistion. There, the heretics are judged by significant figures in the church hierarchy, and any sentence delivered is legally binding, even death sentences.

[Dreshand]

There are so many flaws with this... but it works I guess

The floating city of Rghftak is powered entirely by solar power and hydroelectricity. The hydroelectricity comes from a large turbine of sorts under the floating city, during times of war the city rams itself into slower ships to let the turbine chop them up
