Veiser Q&A/Ask Astre and Co.

Here, on this thread, you may ask any questions you may have about the Kingdom of Veise. Both IC and OOC questions can be answered, and you can ask specific characters questions (including aristocrats). Astre, Septette, and co. are here to answer any questions. However, I'll go ahead and place an FAQ to avoid certain questions.

FAQ

Where on the planet is Veise at?
Veise is situated on a fictional, alternate Earth with entirely different continents and fantasy landscapes. I intend for the world outside of Veise to be rather vague and ambiguous. Veise, however, is situated roughly along the same latitude as the Mediterranean. Northern Veise can be rather chilly, and further east it gets reasonably cold, but most of coastal Veise features common beach weather, and southern Veise is home to a desert. Veise's world features somewhat of an Imperial Japan analogue.

What tech level is Veise?
Veise is Steampunk FanT, with no secure location between PT and PMT. Most of the time, Veise is PT, but has Steampunk equivalents to MT devices, and occasionally may reach PMT. For example, Veise lacks computers, but carries many MT cultural elements, and its airships levitate better than any MT flying craft due to the existence of floating islands in Veise. It further delves into FanT due to the presence of supernatural phenomenons, like the aforementioned floating islands.

Veiser demographics?
Veise is highly ethnically homogenous, though it is full of regional dialects. Most of its population practices Veiser Orthodoxy, which I imagine to be something like Greek Orthodoxy with Catholic aesthetic and Protestant open-mindedness. Though, I keep it vague as to whether or not it is Christian-like or an actual Veiser variant of Christianity.

So if Veise is located along the equator, would that mean that many areas have a tropical climate? And is the planet Veise is located on colder than our Earth?

Actually, that strikes up a good point. I should probably push Veise some distance North of the Equator.

However, much of Southern Veise is indeed tropical, possessing a temp of 64F for the entirety of the year. As for your second point, Veise's world is not really colder than ours, no.

In terms of economics is Veise primarily agricultural or more industrialized?

Very industrialized. Veise's industrial capacity is considered monstrous, something like WW1-era Germany and the US if not perhaps combined.

How would you classify Veiser royalty in terms of Dungeons and Dragons alignment?
