Eordae World Builder (OOC/Sign Ups)

[Whiteshore]

Belreich, so 22.6% of Seresia's population are Halmonists and 19% of Zhouran's population are Donerists.

[Mesrane]

What should drive Durera and Belreich into capitulating?

Being bled white?

But if we are to continue the Great War, the issue of who is going to play Belriech needs to be resolved rather quickly.

Here's me going to organize some shit for our world, to serve as reference points for atlas maps and future versions of the project. As of now we are the most informationally disorganized collaboration in the Geofiction scene. Time to put Dewey decimals here. however this thing is subject for correction soyou cam point out the possible mistakes I blurt out.

Continents, Subregions, Cultural and Racial areas

• We have the continents of Kovedia, Aredia (Major and Minor), Jayanesia, Dorjania, and Nephinia. Our parallels here are the following: Kovedia is an Antarctica/Greenland Aussie because of its position, Jayanesia a bloated India, Dorjania is generally Oriental Asia, Aredia is Europe and the Near East, and Nephinia is the union of Africa and the Americas. Rastafarian Tacos.
• Culturally, Aredia Magna (everything under the Aredian Pan-Civilization umbrella) has four (?) Cultural spheres (like what the otherworld has). The Donerist Germanics (Arcasic/Archaians/Airkasreiko/Arkånrik, whatevs), the Grecian Seresians (includes the Khagans of Taichan, Yazidavan and the like), the Distinct Paran Slavs (Certainly not that aredian) and the Celtic Ardachs(?) Also who cannot forget our isolated anomaly, the Alysian Isles!
• Dorjano-Jayanesian civilizations have a unifying link (see Trade routes). Seeing that Xelangura and Sri Payaka have lots of pre-Zhouranese Jayanesian influences, Southern Dorjania is automatically the overlapping region between the Orientals and the Dharmics.
• Our cultural religions (religions representing the civilizations the nations are under) are now the following: Donerism and Colotaros (one based on Catholicized Paganism and one based on Orthodoxy without context), Halmoni (representing Buddhism), Arthwald (Hinduism? What is it supposed to be?) And the glorious interwoven religious framework of the far western Dorjanics.
• Since Eorda is small, does it mean our diversity in culture is lesser than on Earth? Does it mean we can have a unifying origin point in prehistory? Does all civilizations of Aredia Magna and in some point some parts of dorjania (and Para) have an origin culture? Is it the same for the orientals and the Jayanesians?

Good points Vic. And the Celtic group is the "Carenns," referring to the mountain range from which they originated, but that's just splitting hairs. And the Carenn religion is "Ardacism," but that's also just nitpicking on my part.

I would suggest that the human race originate out of either Dorjania or Jayanesia, because that makes crossing into Aredia Major (and therefore by extension Aredia Minor) and Nephinia fairly easy. I've no idea how mankind would've reached Kovedia in large numbers at all, but Kovedia's relative importance right now means we can probably cross that bridge when we come to it.

Well in real life humanity originated in eastern Africa and spread mostly into Asia/Middle East before getting to Europe. I believe this was supposedly because it was much colder in Europe but hotter in Africa so the temperate Asia was more suited to early humans' hunting methods.

I took it to be that Nephinia is the origin of humanity and it spread to Dorjanna through land bridges. From Dorjanna they spread out into Jayanesia and Aredia. Then the original Jayanesians fled from Jayanesia as modern Jayanesia came in from Dorjanna sometime during the ice age. These Jayanesians settled on islands in the south that eventually sunk as water levels rose with the last survivors of this migration being the ones that fled all the way to Kovedia.

Dorjania or Nephinia. Both sound equally good to me.

Must we draw straws for Belriech?

[Whiteshore]

Mesrane, any possible names for Sino-Tibetan?

Hmm . . . if Zhouran is the easternmost Sino-Tibetan nation what is the westernmost? Hwahea?

Korean is an Altaic language.

Can we d the great war.

[Bezombia]

Can we d the great war.

How exactly does one d a war?

[Kassaran]

Yeah, and I haven't heard it asking for the d so isn't that also rape in a way?

:3

[Yathien]

Dunno, maybe you use a Dreidel?

[Bering]

If no one else want to do it, then I will do it for the sake of getting things back on track

I don't want to push anyone into taking it on but I can't play Cowboys and Indians by myself.

[Victoriala]

Mesrane, any possible names for Sino-Tibetan?

Not kinda sure because of the crazy politico-cultural status of the Occident (Oscidence). I mean, a very European nation I'm the very east? I'm not sure how to put order here. Unless we make a neat explanation on the clusterfuck I guess we should wait a good couple of years until we make an Eorda V2.

Dorjania hasn't made a lot of cultural sense for awhile now, but I'm not sure how much we can do about that right now. Arkenson is the most vexing, but Orson appears to be in limbo after "returning" and not showing himself at all in the past two weeks or so.

*sigh*

[Whiteshore]

Folks, what is Eordae's analogue to the silk road?

[Bering]

I don't want to push anyone into taking it on but I can't play Cowboys and Indians by myself.

It's fine, I can do it. As OP I must be willing to do what must be done for the good of the RP.
Besides I just finished my last final today so I have a lot of free time until after the new year

Folks, what is Eordae's analogue to the silk road?

The Belkan Trail?

Maybe Seresia, Yazidavan, Belka, and Turkau could be pseudo-silk road kingdoms for the medieval period?

Yup.

And simply because this is so fun: your nation's greatest sports victory/game/moment?
