National Animal What's your nation's national animal? The archaeotuthis (Nagian name: pracheen vidroop, or ancient squid). Is it a mammal, a reptile, a bird, or what? A giant squid. Is it in the real world? It is similar to Earth giant squid, though the Nagian variety lives in freshwater and is acclimated to people. Is it allowed to be hunted? Absolutely not. To kill an archaeotuthis is one of the highest crimes of the nation, punishable by exile at best. Is it near, at, or surpassing human intelligence? No. What does its flesh taste like? Exactly like squid. How endangered is it? It is plentiful within its home ranges. Is it magical? No, though it is considered sacred. How was it created? By magic, technology, evolution, or by a god/goddess? Some Nagians believe the archaeotuthis was the first form taken by the creator of the universe, hence the appellation archaeo-. Like all animals in Blue Nagia, it is a product of evolution. Is it allowed to be used as a pet? No, though it frequently lives in temple lakes and is cared for by the temple guardians, similar to how crocodiles live in the lakes surrounding temples in India. Where does it live? Rivers and lakes. If one were to kill someone, what would people do to it? There are no records of an archaeotuthis harming someone: it is a gentle creature. If it were to occur, it would likely be treated as an act of god(s). Prayers and rituals would be carried out to discover the meaning of the act, but the animal would not be harmed. What are expensive resources you can get from it? Its ink is used in the writing of sacred texts. However, the ink must be given voluntarily by the creature.

The prime minister (president of the Royal Assembly) has no set term length and must retain the confidence of a majority of the Royal Assembly.

The prime minister can serve as long as they are reelected to the Royal Assembly and can retain the confidence of a majority of the Royal Assembly. How long is a term in your nation's legislature?

Is the majority population indigenous to your nation?
Yes, most English citizens belong to the indigenous population, whom are the English. The Welsh and Cornish are also indigenous peoples, whose lands were incorporated and integrated into the English realm many centuries ago.
If yes: Are they proud of their heritage?
Yes, most English people are proud of their Englishness and their heritage, especially since the new government came to power. Ancestral pride has risen greatly, sometimes to the anger of crazed ‘Antinationalists’ and other radical groups.
Has there been a history of their oppression or removal from their land?
Yes, though it has since been many centuries. The English were repressed and the lands of English landowners were seized by Norman conquerers, such as William the Bastard and his underlings.
Have they ever conquered or colonized other nation's indigenous populations?
Yes, the world over in fact. The success of the English civilisation and nation is a source of pride for many.
Overall, how much does your people's indigenous heritage affect them, politics, and the nation in general?
Beyond what can be said. English nationalism and identity is a core tenet of the state.

Does your nation use Penal Battalions for military service? Yes
If your nation does not use penal battalions, ignore the rest of this survey.
What crimes can make you eligible for penal service? Treason, sedition, deception, obstruction of justice, desertion, and other acts that: "...are considered harmful to the armed forces and may damage or hamper its ability to operate efficiently and competently."
How many men in your military currently serve as penal troops? 27,600 enlists, 57 officers
Describe the roles penal troops play in your military. Penal forces are strictly kept in line by the Military Police Corps, an independent corps of the Molopovian Armed Forces. Penal troops in peacetime are subjected to difficult and impossible trials, such as sprinting 200 meters while being fired at with machine guns, disarming a minefield within 40 seconds lest all the mines explode, and surviving in a tear gas chamber for 120 seconds. In wartime, they are sent to the most critical and dangerous sectors, tasked with rushing forward aimlessly until they succeed or die. Surviving penal troops are pardoned if they were wounded or performed a heroic act, otherwise they continue to serve in their penal unit. Summary executions are often held, mostly to execute those with severe charges who have failed to earn their pardon, or those horribly incompetent overall. Penal units were established by the Ministry of Defense's Directive 129, formally implemented on July 1915.
Are penal troops given any training? If so, describe briefly how. The maximum term for penal troops are six months. They are trained very rigorously daily, penal soldiers are known to be severely tortured or killed just for minor errors. At the end of each month, they undergo the aforementioned harsh trials such as surviving in a tear gas chamber.
Describe the relationship between Penal Troops and Normal Soldiers. How would they cooperate on the field? Normal units are separated to the best effort they can from penal units. The penal troops usually spearhead offensives in wartime, allowing for less normal troops to be slaughtered in the front lines.
How well are Penal troops equipped compared to Normal Soldiers? Penal units are only authorized to equip themselves with rifles manufactured before 1930.
How do conditions of Penal Troops compare to those of Normal Soldiers? Penal troops receive 1/4 of the rations, equipment and mercy of the normal soldiers, and their disciplinary requirements are increased tenfold.
