Strict communist policy, harsh anti-immigration laws, morality, hatred towards non-humans.

Elvaeia Regnum has an economy of the ' frightening ' level, and we have achieved this without harming our forests and wildlife and without using child labour or forced labour, which is quite an achievement.

And of course, we have extremely open minded laws in concern to relationships, sex and homosexuals. And practically everything else.

A perfect nation, I would like to state.

While still working on my history my nation went through a atomic civil war, so the saying in vecton
We Follow The Plan
our most used saying is because the leader of the country pulled the country out of the civil war so rather than the people seeing him as a evil dictator they see him as a hero and savoir to their people so because of this there is almost no crime and no sense of resistance to the dictator because they do not see him as such. Also the military in vecton is different as rather then having a standing army every citizen will be given weapons to defend their nation. finally there is the use of underground cloning chambers which the people of vecton have to use to maintain their population as the surface is covered by so much nuclear radiation that it is almost inhospitable.

The full history of vecton will be up soon ask questions if you want to know more.

It is common in Fatatatutti for prominent people to have their own porn sites, for example Prime Minister Schuyler Marmish, Foreign Minister Carmen "Shimmy" Dijkstra, Health Minister Dr. Alessandra Nobile, Defense Minister Harmony Chang, General Marie-Louise Castro-Stalina, Colonel Kim Cho, etc. Alphonse does not have his own porn site but he (or a duck who looks like him) is featured, fully feathered, on several of the aforementioned sites. It has been said that personal porn sites are more common than social network pages, though Fishbook does have its share of members too.

53% of the population are magic-users, so most buildings are bigger on the inside and not all of them touch the ground (levitating buildings are, in fact, quite common in the city of Enchantment).

It's common to see nonhumans in Olwe, and not all horses have riders for a good reason (although not all of the sentient horses are ponies... we have full-sized horses that are sentient, too). Most signs have both English letters and Elvish runes on them.

The traditional greeting in Olwe is a passionate kiss. It's not at all uncommon for complete strangers to walk up and start making out with you.

Polyamory is widely practiced... there is no perception of straying outside a two-person sexual relationship as "cheating" in Olwe. In fact, your wife is probably having sex with the same girl you're seeing on the side since 86% of the population is either bisexual or pansexual.

Public nudity is perfectly legal, and widely practiced (especially in the warmer Grand Duchies).

Incest is perfectly legal as long as all participants are adults, and not taboo unless a pregnancy occurs.

Children can be legally emancipated from their parents at onset of puberty, since they are legally considered adults once their bodies have developed into adulthood.

Dueling is still widely practiced here... but guns aren't allowed in duels, and there is a rule that a duelist is disqualified for cowardice if they move more than a meter away from their opponent.

-Engaging in sexual activity in public such as sexual intercourse or even kissing, can get you arrested or fined.

-Swearing in public can get you arrested or fined.

-You can't roam some parts of out cities, mainly Sarenji, if you are a member of certain religion or ethnicity.

-You can not hail taxis in the middle of the street, you must wait in a taxi pickup station for a taxi.

-In some poorer areas of the cities, you can hail a bus driver mid drive, and he'll stop the bus mid way, and let you go on or off.

-Harassing Royal Guards for fun or for pictures can get you fined, arrested, or well beat up.

-Although many do this in poorer areas of the cities, in the wealthier areas you can not sit on side walks or stoops. Doing this almost always will result in you being shooed off by authority people, or by simply regular citizens.

-foreigners must always, with no exception, carry their passport and I.D. at all times.

In Fatatatutti, strangers will often stop and offer you a ride. Or you can just "borrow" a car that isn't in use. Cab rides are usually a fixed 10 USD unless the distance is extreme.

Taxis are often unmarked. Many people use their cars as taxis in their spare time to make extra money.

In any case, it's usually faster to walk.

-In some poorer areas of the cities, you can hail a bus driver mid drive, and he'll stop the bus mid way, and let you go on or off.

In Fatatatutti, you can only do that with express buses, which are usually on their way to the beach. Other buses don't operate on much of a schedule or even a fixed route. You tell the driver where you want to go and he rearranges his route to accomodate you.

Buses are usually painted purple with "Bus" on the side to avoid confusion.

In any case, it's usually faster to walk.

Forgot to mention that most Olweans move around the country via teleportation... probably not normal in other nations.

We are absolutely normal in every way. It's you guys who are strange. Yes, all the rest of the multiverse.

Here's some things that are normal, so you can tell what normal is:

We are a nation of puritanical naked lesbians... IN SPACE!
There's no statutory drinking age. It's all up to your mothers.
Banks offer loans (at very reasonable rates!) for the purpose of getting pregnant.

There are teddy bears. Like, 2 metre tall ones. Walking, talking ones. That are everywhere.

For some reason, it does create a shock for some tourists. After all, we're exactly what it says on the tin.

Other than that, other odd things that are normal is that we drive on both the left and right (with left in Toylando and Grenatia province, and right on all others), people walking around in full medieval armor (or at least our version of it) are considered perfectly normal, and having missile defenses situated on street corners and public squares.

Polygamy is seen as normal and monogamy is a little strange.

We are a nation of catgirls, males exist but they are exceptionally rare.

Well, for starters:
- As a Postmodern-tech (more specifically postcyberpunk), you'll see a lot of exotic - looking vehicles and structures in our cities, as well as robots and alternate energy infrastructure. In most larger cities you'll find archologies, buildings so large they become a community into themselves. More than half our citizens have at least one artificial limb, organ, or cybernetic implant. Despite this, you'll see very few ultrafuturistic things like flying cars, spacecraft, sentient robots, etc.
- Nudity is perfectly legal in almost all wilderness areas and about 40% of non-wilderness beach areas. But with our weather, it's often a bad idea.
- There's hardly a community with over 10,000 people in the country that doesn't have at least three private schools and two toll roads.
- You can find out more here.

- As a Fantasy-tech nation, magic, or mana, as we call it, isn't just commonplace - it's part of most people's everyday lives.
- Our most advanced technology actually involve mixing fantasy and SciFi: mana - powered robots and genetic engineering, for example. We also farm mana as a crop or energy source.
- The concept of "marriage" does not exist here. People have "mates" or "lovers". The majority of the dominant racial group ("drowolath") of the population is bisexual. Its not uncommon for a lover to express dissapointment that you didn't cheat on them while you were gone for an extended period.
- Humans are a minority group. Most of our population are fantasy monsters. Drow, orcs? They're the ordinary folk. The really exotic monsters make the D&D monster manual look tame.
- See our factbook for more.

In Equalium, it's normal for women to worship in Islamic mosques, and men to only pray at home. Here, Equaliumnese Islam is Matriarchal. However, laws are beginning to change the ways of Islam here in Equalium due to de-Matriarchaling the place to an extremely Equal state. It's not really working.

It's also apparently normal for a woman to jeer off a men being extremely sexist to them.

Liberals and Feminists tend to be rounded up by the local Blackshirts, then sent to Libya.

Despite being a Fascist State, social policy is rather lax towards most races and sexual orientations. Gay, non-religious, or otherwise different people of either Italian or Greek descent face very little discrimination, as they are viewed as being fellow brothers of in the state above all. Other minorities may face some discrimination outside of their native lands, however.
