Good for you. For some of the states, it takes longer to recover...


During the 70s, there was active royalist resistance in Canada, which opposed SC's republican rule. Groups mostly operated in rural areas, and mountain areas, where it was harder for SC's forces to catch them, and due of vastness of Canada, rebellious groups could easily hide. Most of them operated in Quebec, Alberta, and Northwest Territories, but some groups were even active in Greenland, and Alaska, however, they met way fewer successes there.

At first, some of the groups managed to deal a significant damage to SC's forces stationed there, and even captured some parts of the Northern Quebec, Greenland, Alaska, and Northern Canada. For only a short time, of course, because they went into hiding once SC started a new offensive.

However, during the 1990s, when Canada was granted the rights as a republican Commonwealth State, royalist resistance started to dwindle away. Due of the better weapons, which Commonwealth had invented, decline of morale, and propaganda, it became more and more harder to hide, and continue to wage war. However, resistance groups continued to be active during the 21st century, and were really crushed only under Trenton Peterson's administration. Still, sporadic attacks were carried out until the 2020ties as well, and even after the defeat of the partisans, SC still feared, that they could return, so they still have lots of soldiers dislocated there today.

It is a good thing in my opinion that SC rule is contested and resisted. Let the people rise in resistance!
In our world, Muhammad and the successive Muslim states did not achieve as much success as IRL. Because of this, North Africa is mostly Christian, Indonesia is Christian and Buddhist, and Iran (+Afghanistan and western Pakistan; east Pakistan and Bengal are Hindu) is Manichaean and Hindu, with a significant Christian minority.
Even though it is largely concentrated in the Arabian peninsula, it has converts all over the world. It is also dominated by mysticism and ascetic philosophy rather than the hardline and authoritarian branches dominating real life.

That is good. Perhaps your world isn't as bad as I thought.


The trade policies of Knessniet have been broken into 6 eras from a historical sense. This allows historians to see the trade policies change over time drastically. It goes as follows:

The Age of Imports (510-890 AD)
This was the beginning of Knessniet's existence, and it was importing much to sustain itself as it slowly built up it's industry with what tools were available in the day. It is the only period in history where Knessniet has had a national debt exceeding $1 billion USD in equivalence.

The Age of Balance (890-1096 AD)
At this point, Knessniet had built enough industry to balance it's ledger and was able to slowly pay off it's debts. While it didn't rely completely on imports anymore, it still needed them for luxury items. In the end, it was able to consolidate it's debt just in time for the First Crusade...

The Age of Conquest (1096-1500)
Once Pope Urban II declared a crusade, Knessniet was among the first to jump aboard. At this point, it was a pious catholic country that was about to spend the next 400 years fighting for the church. However, after Martin Luther sparked the Protestant Reformation, Knessniet quickly abandoned the church in favor of Luther, and began the process of forming it's own church that lives on to this day.

The Age of Colonialism (1500-1945)
For Knessniet, the colonialist tendencies were strong and long lived. Knessniet had retained it's colonies straight up to the Second World War, and pursued a mercantilist approach for most of that time, but with an emphasis on exporting to European neighbors. Thus mad ethe country very rich, and fortified homeland industry so for the first time, Knessniet had achieved complete autarky, with the Colonie only feeding a surplus to a decadent nobility.

The Age of Isolation (1945-2012)
During this period, Knessniet was a misfit in the new modern world where monarchies just didn't live on. So, it became quite isolationist to prevent the corruption of the populace in the face of new political pressures from outside. However, the Grand Dukes at the time were careful to keep up technologically, and did what they could to keep up in those regards, including temporary opening of ports in exchange for new inevtions like atomic power and the computer.

The Age of Exports (2012-Present)
Having maintained near-complete autarky since 1945, Grand Duke Herman XIII realized that Knessniet had a surplus that needed to be sold, and so reopened trade internationally. Now, Knessniet is a major producer of affordable goods, albeit without modern labor standards. This makes it cheap for those who can turn a blind eye to their morals. And so, a new age has begun.

It's funny how your nation contradicts itself. It supports ignoring of morals, yet is supposedly religious. It is corrupt, despite not being democratic. Are you making a paradox on purpose?

There are no political parties in Amenria. Instead, they are replaced by nobles from all across Asia, with each family representing a set of ideologies. Despite the differences between them, however, they keep in mind that they have the same goal, which is making sure the people prosper. This is why there is no such thing as political opposition here.

In Ænglland's timeline, The Roman Empire never grew to such a massive size it was too large to administer. It actually was more like Phoenicia, where it founded colonies along the coasts of places. Today, Roma is the technical successor to the Roman Empire, speaking the original Latin language. The languages of its colonies evolved into French, Italian, Catalonian, Castillian, Sicilian, and Romanian, along with a few other languages. Carthage was also colonized by Rome, but it speaks Latin, due to the close proximity by sea.

I can see why the name was shortened... it is not exactly something that rolls off the tongue.

The weather of Athralia Prime, the Athralian homeworld, is warm and humid all year round, with temperatures remaining relatively constant and with comparatively little seasonal variation between the dry and the wet seasons. As such, a typical Athralian day is often characterised by calm and clear mornings and afternoons followed by heavy rain in the evening that provides welcome relief from the heat. Complete cloud coverage is a somewhat rare occurrence, however, and so intense rainbows are very common. Athralian nights are often cloudless, allowing the planet's denizens to enjoy both astonishingly vibrant views of the galaxy and the occasional aurora streaking magnificent lights across the night sky. The balmy climate of the planet is responsible for its lush flora and fauna, and life in all its forms is often strikingly colourful. This, contrasting superbly with the planet's crystal blue oceans and abundant vegetation, gives Athralia Prime a natural beauty that few, if any, can match. The Athralians are pentachromats that are capable of distinguishing up to 10 billion different hues, and many have said that they pity humanity for not being able to perceive their colourful world, and indeed the entire universe, as they do.

Guess it'd be perfect for flying kites then, wouldn't it? Either that, or building a bunker...

Queen Tiva was also known and documented to have had an odd form of foot fetish, being affixed with her own feet being touched and played with rather than touching others. It is even rumored this led to the extent of allowing citizens to play with her feet if they asked. This had gotten her into a habit of casually walking around barefoot, giving her the moniker "Nudis Pedibus" by the Roman consul Aulus Hostilius Mancinus. She was once asked to even put on mandatory slippers by the king of Persia during a visit, to which she replied "Why would I? My soles gracing your floors should be more of a blessing to your kingdom than anything." One historian theorized that this may also have been brought on by her own foot size after her skeleton was dug up in 1990 as her feet measured at size 15 Men's shoe size, or approximately 13 inches long and 5 inches wide, which would have also attributed fueling her own superiority complex.

Once upon a time, in the modern day island of Cyprus and a few islands on the Agean sea, there lived a kingdom with its' own unique ways of life in military, history, culture, race and language... which was temporarily done in several times by Alexander the Great, the Ptolemaic immigrants and also the following Spartan, Athenian and Celtic migrants. But we still retain all that despite all the Hellenic influence, as well a beautiful and strong queen who rules in a benevolent manner.

Nikita Romanic was the former Chairman of the Council of Democrats from 1953 until his political retirement in 1963. He was considered by Voslavic Laxim as one of the purest revolutionary thinkers of the post-Amundsven figures and true friend not only to him, but to the working class of the world. In 1954, he would address the 20th Congress of the C.D. by officially denouncing Laxim and his "cult of personality" along with many of the policies that occured under the Laxim era.

Brits might find the idea of too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter to be similar to their situation.

According to a research by the British Council, Singaporeans have the fastest walking speed. On average, Singaporeans walk a distance of 18 metres in 10.55 seconds. That's approximately 6.15km in an hour.

"Usually a tent party would mean something entirely different here... but that's an interesting concept nonetheless"

One grand form of entertainment in the Sioperot kingdom is the classical art of Oukoupies; a form of puppetry that is performed similarly to shadow puppetry, only the sillhouettes are articulated similar to marionettes, with walls and curtains positioned so the puppeteers cannot be easily seen. Most of the time these puppet shows are used to enact plays and stories, some of the most popular ones involving Sioperot or Greek folklore. Different kinds of plays are performed, ranging from dramas which emphasize on emotion and tense situations, comedies which emphasize on jokes and being funny, and sometimes, at designated times, even erotic performances can be seen and attended to. In some instances, Sioperon oukoupiesi can easily be compared to Japanese anime.

I wanna see one show.

Sergeant Major of the Army, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps, Sergeant Major of the Air Force and Sergeant Major of the Gendarmerie are appointments to non-commissioned officers of rank Command Sergeant Major or Master Chief Petty Officer, and are limited to one per branch. They wear their usual CSM and MCPO insignia, but are differentiated by a gold and silver aiguillette with a gold and silver tassel.

Sergeant Major of the Royal Atlantean Armed Forces is a similar appointment that requires a similar rank. The holder also wears the usual rank insignia, but is differentiated by a silver aiguillette with a silver tassel.

Right now, there is a bill that will give the appointees of the above ranks their own rank insignias (namely, for Sergeants Major, the regular Sergeant Major insignia, but with a trident on top, for the Master Chief Petty Officer, the usual insignia with a trident on top, and for the Sergeant Major of the Royal Atlantean Armed Forces, a similar rank to the Sergeants Major, but the trident has a wreath surrounding it) but it has yet to be passed.

The trial to determine her new forever-wedded consort and prince of Sioperon would take 15 hours, involving trials of wisdom, dedication as well as combat and strength demonstrations which she particularly enjoyed (and maybe a few ones that involve the unmentionables) before she finally settled on Leothycides. Tiva was only 14 years old at this time. Leothycides was 23.
Current year: 170 B.C.

Once upon a time, in the modern day island of Cyprus and a few islands on the Agean sea, there lived a kingdom with its' own unique ways of life in military, history, culture, race and language... which was temporarily done in several times by Alexander the Great, the Ptolemaic immigrants and also the following Spartan, Athenian and Celtic migrants. But we still retain all that despite all the Hellenic influence, as well a beautiful and strong queen who rules in a benevolent manner.

Arranged? So backwards...


President Alvyrnes' marriage was commenced just after the revolution, and is considered a celebration of victory by many. The couple walked over the flag of the old regime, and Alvyrnes was holding a hammer while Tovyrnia held a sickle. There was a military parade during his marriage.

That’s beautiful and all, but we all know there should be no cheering for communism.



While many members of German high society carry around ceremonial sabers or rapiers, Grand Prince Manfred von Blume - the former Provisional Chancellor, Chief of the Great General Staff and War Secretary of State - prefers to have a light sword on his hip at all times. This four-foot-long, one-handed sword has a custom swiveling scabbard for easy drawing, and, despite looking pretty, is made for practical use. Blume’s other sword, a gigantic Zweihänder, is seldom seen in public.

A utilitarian... I like that.

Security footage from a prison shows a woman convicted of manslaughter growing bat wings at the back, then flinging the cell door open, and attacking the guards. More footage shows her attacking more guards, and eventually flying out of the prison. The guards do fight back, and they even resort to using military-grade weapons, but to no avail.

This series of footage, as well as pictures of the aftermath, made national headlines just yesterday.

Uses certain NS stats.

Atlantis is an MT nation that is the third richest country in the world, behind only China and the United States. It is closer to the USA, UK, Italy and Spain (in that order, though Italy and Spain is probably tied) culturally than it is Greece. It is also a naval power.

And no, Atlantis is not underwater: It has a land area around the size of France.

Pros: Classical liberalism, democracy, the West, Brexit, Viktor Orban, free education, strong military
Cons: Authoritarianism, fascism, communism, multiculturalism, Islamism

Well that's just a tad concerning. You might want to look into that, and maybe call an exorcist whilst you're at it.

Despite her nature, the Lady Protector is exceptionally prone to behavioural abnormalities, sociopathic tendencies, and personality disorders. Liliya's parents may have designed her to be physically and genetically "perfect", but it is impossible for such genetic modification to prevent mental issues that arise from external factors, such as the environment, past experiences, and emotional and physical trauma. Liliya has had therapy to treat her mental issues throughout her life, and with regards to the depression that she experienced in her earlier years, this treatment is considered to be successful. However, she is far from cured of all mental issues, as a number of other disorders still lurk within her mind, albeit now buried beneath many layers of therapy sessions and suppressed by medication. Her therapists have observed that after her depression had been eliminated, Liliya instead started to develop sociopathic tendencies and personality disorders that had progressively worsened, and this coupled with the abilities granted to her by her psionic awakening could lead to a potentially dangerous situation. Liliya possesses symptoms that have led to her being diagnosed with varying levels of borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, and sadistic personality disorders. As such, she has become unpredictable and manipulative, she fears abandonment and isolation above all else, has an overactive sex drive, is excessively seductive and craves constant sexual gratification, is egotistical, insouciant, and vain, can be needlessly cruel, is liable to sudden outbursts of rage, and derives satisfaction and pleasure from dominating and intimidating others. Liliya's mental state may be far from cured of these issues, if such a thing is even possible for a complex mind such as hers, but Athralian medicine keeps her stable. Outside of her therapy sessions, one would not even be able to tell that she had such issues to begin with. Nevertheless, she is being constantly monitored by an advanced medical AI, and understandably, Liliya wishes to keep this personal information away from the public sphere and from anyone outside of her sessions. Not even her mothers are aware of the extent of her issues.
