You know that you’re from Bears Armed when _

Most if not all of the people around you – and probably you yourself, too – are Ursines
(i.e. anthropomorphic Bears) rather than Humans.

Your primary allegiance is to your local Clan or Sept, rather than to the nation as a whole.

You are neither surprised nor shocked (unless you belong to one of a few specific, and relatively small, groups) to learn that some devout members of your religious community are also equally devout followers of another belief-system too, and hold that both are equally valid paths towards the higher truth.

You use base-8 arithmetic, except perhaps when dealing with foreigners, and (probably) regard 8 itself as the most important “lucky” number.

You know at least one person who works in a “sweetness”-related business, for example as a bee-keeper or a treacle miner.

You are accustomed to cars and lorries being steam-powered.

You are accustomed to thinking of pigs as being mainly ‘working’ animals, or even pets, but of dogs mainly as food.

‘New Year’s Day’ falls on the 1st of April, rather than on the 1st of January, and the days of the week are: Moonday, Tigersday, Owlsday, Pigsday, Rabbitsday, Donkeysday, & Sunday.

The closest thing to a national police force is the country's traditional cross-Clan 'warrior societies'... whom some outsiders, including the World Survey, mistake for "biker gangs".

You think that a building is "tall" if it has more than three or four storeys, and don't recognise the term "skyscraper".

18. When you want a Mustang more than a Ferrari or Roll's Royce
19. When you hate rules
20. And last, when you, 100.000.000 people and The Emperor are running towards the local Video Game store screaming and jumping for joy whenever a new Halo game comes out

You know that you're a Dekerin when....

You don't have to remember the names of your wives/concubines, because they have none.

You lost your virginity at 13, got married to your first wife at 16, knocked up another girl at 17, married her as well at 18, slept with one of your mothers-in-law at 20, and not only didn't your father-in-law mind you screwing one of his wives, he doesn't even ask which one it was.

You're a happily married man of 23 who already has 7 kids, but it hasn't slowed down your career.

You won't hug another guy, because the last time you did so, it was your best friend and he came on to you. And you looked like the bad guy for turning him down.

You're 17 and you've already killed 45 enemy soldiers in the War of Liberation.

You're 14 and you can kill a grown man with your bare hands. And probably have.

You're 13 and you have already voted, it was perfectly legal, but there was only one choice on the ballot.

You're 14 and you can legally drive.

You think that New Olwe is a great, magical land, and you hope to visit it one day and get a kiss (and a lot more) from a sexy witch....or several of them.

Harry Potter films are very popular with your whole family.

You think Akrosians are despicable prudes, xenophobes, and hyper-egalitarians. And you can actually spell all of those words at 13...and know what they mean.

You can't begin to grasp the notion of sexual harassment....it is too alien to imagine people seeing that as being harassed. You feel guilty whenever you turn someone down for sex, because you might brought them and yourself pleasure and thus pleased the Satyr Gods.

The idea of monotheism is inherently blasphemous to you.

Communism is a totally strange and godless theory.

Socialism is something odd, but it seems to work for the people of New Olwe, so you'll let it slide.

You think of astrology as a real science.

Dairy products are abhorrent to you, and you're probably lactose intolerant anyway.

You can and will quite legally kill another man for calling you a coward.

You see a man drinking from a woman's bare breast and walk by as if it were normal and routine....because to you it is.

You're 16 and you've been to that many threesomes already. Of both kinds.

You don't worry about STDs, because every Dekerin is immunized to all of them from birth. That has been practiced since the days of the Kings.

You're a city guy, so you automatically belong to a guild from age 13 onward.

Beer-battered pheasant is the perfect comfort food for you, especially washed down with yivau ale.

Whenever you watch Star Trek, you automatically sympathize with the Maquis or the Klingons.

You've seen at least a hundred floggings before you become an adult.

You know you're a bovid if...

...you chew your cud while sprawled around debating complex political and philosophical issues.
...you have no concept of 'on time' or why it's so important to some of those hairless primates always trying to order you about.
...everyone knows that impala and rhebok have power in the Supreme Council out of all proportion to their numbers, but that's just Linnaeus' fault.
...while you are nearly always calm -- one might even say placid -- the mere smell of a predator can instantly trigger a fight-or-flight response.
...all the predators in your country were eliminated centuries ago, thank heavens.
...you may not know any cervids personally, but you know they're the enemy. Still, nothing ever really seems to get done about their menace.
...if, as a young boy (and, in many cases, a young girl) you spent lots of time in your crèche comparing horn sizes to the other boys and girls.
...contrary to above, you're a member of a more solitary species and didn't find out that other males have horns until a dominant bull chased you around a bit for messing with his lady.
...most disputes, never mind the above, are settled amicably with a little ritualized sparring display at most.
...some sparring ends up being fatal. Still, that's to be expected; driving a car can be fatal, but those crazy humans still do it as sport.

-Your Breakfast and lunches are often light snacks, while dinner will be had out and will be heavy.
-You smoke. A lot.
-You drink, but don't get absolutely pissed that often.

-That was with your first girlfriend.
-Gays are some mysterious rumour from far afield.
-You've worked on a farm at least once in your life.
-Milk comes in Plastic Jugs.
-You listen to contempory Weccanfeldian music that would be considered oldie by other nations.
-You probably can't understand (modern) English, nevermind attempt to speak or write it.
-Your sister, however, probably can because she was sold to a hairy Yaforite with a bdsm fetish.
-You've tried Magic mushrooms at least once.
-You've tried skiing
-You consider a v-neck over a long sleeve shirt to be casual wear.
-You can swear it has been raining for the past 24 hours.
-You own a gun. Probably a mid 19th century rifle, mind.
-You've been in the army for at least two years.
-You hate civil servants and policemen and make this known. This includes if you are one of the above.

-you know few private business people and understand why they can't vote

-capitalism= satanism in your book and cannot see why other nations will not go for a collectivist economic system to ensure economic democracy

-you know you have more power than your local politicians and so do they

-you do not think it is odd to have two or more mothers, as well as two or more fathers, and to grow up with 6-14 siblings, many of which share none of your DNA, but are considered blood relatives all the same

-you consider anyone who feels they need an assault rifle to defend themselves from the government to have a small club

-you wonder the following about said people: Why don't they get swords- like normal people

-you regularly blend religious language and leftist jargon in your everyday speech

-you know that the navy is crap, but know that the air force, especially the dragon handlers, and the space force (natikodi) are not to be screwed with

-you have a (not so secret) crush on your nation's head of the armed forces, and know that three quarters of the men you know also think she is HOTT

-It takes you forever to decide something... we need a commitee to decide whether or not to post this! Can we have the entire country vote on this? (meeting of several thousand people) Who should be selected as group facilitator? (another frickin' meeting) Does everyone agree? (still another bloody meeting) No? (WTF, another meeting, how many meetings and votes do we need anyhow? *inspires another commitee meeting and decapitates oneself*)

-you call your nation's conservatives (ooc: using american view of the term) communists, libertarians, and liberals, which they are, and your leftists are called communists and anarchists, which, again, they are.

-the secular feds, and the church run gov't of your home town often disagree, and being the nationalist you are... you tell your feds to screw themselves, depending on the issue, or you convert and move to a different city and tell your hometown the same thing... provided your family agrees with you.

-you are at the soda fountain and marijuana pharmacies more often then you are at the bar after work

-you consider a forty hour work week too short- you prefer putting in the full 72 hours into the cooperative

-you hope and pray that your martial arts skill are good in case you ever get drafted to serve as a member of the People's Assembly- especially during budget time

-you feel free to talk back to your C.O, and s/he takes it without reprimanding you

-you think that learning three, complex languages is perfectly natural

-you can easily understand why there are three capitals

-you consider a skyscraper under 120 stories to be poor use of airspace

-you've never learned how to drive, but know the mass transit system like the back of your hand

-you've also rode in a street car that went from 0mph to 240mph in 3sec.

My nation is not like my nation page at all, it contradicts itself, we don't EVER eat kangaroos, that's just very sad. Also vegetarianism is compulsory yet it still says it's the nation's favourite main course and all and stuff.

You know you're Belentorian if:
- tourists mistake your capital city for a village
- you think owning a vehicle for personal transportation is immoral
- and so is accumulating personal wealth
- you could drive a tractor before you could ride a bicycle
- you can walk all day without leaving your family's land (and frequently do)
- you think a family of less than 100 people is 'small'
- you've heard about monogamy, but can't understand why anyone would practise it
- when your 14-year-old daughter tells you she's pregnant, you break out the champagne (or Belentorian wine, at least)

Actually: Some pop culture experts told me that it's pronounced roughly like /saIk/ while the rejistanian capital Sike (or Zikéh in Zannoo transliteration) is pronounced like /zike:/. (all examples in X-Sampa)
