The production, distribution, and consumption of alcoholic beverages is quite legal in Kiravia. It had better be, as it accounts for 6% of our GDP.

Kiravians are primarily beer-drinking, but the main alcoholic beverage varies by ethnic group. Geldican Coscivian groups drink beer and iscëvaþa (similar to whiskey), along with a host of different malt liquors. Gentaric Coscivian groups drink beer. Eastern Coscivians drink beer. Iatic Coscivians and other Southern Coscivians are primarily wine-drinking, but East Iatic groups also drink a great deal of beer.

Aboriginal Kirhavites drink like Geldicans for the most part, but some of the more traditional tribes in the west have their own beverages fermented from local plants.

Antepelagic peoples don't tolerate alcohol well, and Indo-Aryan Tartarystanis are predominantly Muslim. As such, neither group drinks much.

Kiravians detest the consumption of straight vodka, though they do make use of it in mixed drinks.

Completely legal. Always has, always will be. There is no restriction on the age of consumption, but you can buy beer and wine when you are 16, and stronger spirits when you are 18.
The Reytha love all forms of alcohol, but Reytha vodka is quite exquisite.

1). Is alcohol legal in your nation?- Yes, even the Third Terra Nova of Scrin is a semi-theocratic Christian country, the Holy Imperial Church acknowledges it as a "matter of conscience" only.

2). Legal drinking age?
- The government has no laws concerning about the legal age of the drinking of alcohol though it is a cultural-social norm to not let the children drink alcohol. What is only clear is that alcohol should be made legal.

3). What beverage do your people enjoy the most?- According to a poll made by San Miguel Breweries Corporation, a famous company in the field of alcohol production, people enjoy beer first and wine second.

Mr. Fortino would like to inquire as to whether you have many ports that attract pirate, privateer or buccaneer visitors.
