Looks good so far, just finish the other information

Can we expect a map any time soon? If not I'd recommend adding a "describe your country" section to the app or a "list some cities" section.

Yes, in a few days we will.

Real life languages don't exist other than english, Arakinis and Human English are the only two that exist and other minor languages that can be made up, however, it looks good so far.

Anything about magic?

Sorcery, dark magic, rituals, and or anything that falls into that category is allowed, magic exist but is not a common thing since few know about it and hasn't been used since the Arvanian rule. But yes it's allowed.

History of Nation: The Oltenian Empire was once simply known as the Free City of Oltenia before its days of expansion and conquest. The city was grand and old being a major trade hub in the region led by a greedy Council of Merchants who were lax about corruption and we're more than eager to sell its citizens into slavery for the right price. No one can quite recall how long the Council lasted as the papers documenting it's founding were sold off to some far away merchant bringing trinkets to his nation but everyone can remember it's end. One of the members of the Council by the name of Arthur Runelia grew tired of his fellow rulers and using the people as his tool he stormed the Council put on a mock trial and executed all other members, now with sole legal power he declared himself King and proclaimed his intention for conquest. This is not how it is told in the Empire of course and the general tale is that the people proclaimed him King not himself, either way Arthur used his sword and began conquering cities one by one until he truly had a Kingdom worth noting. As soon as he passed there was debate as to who should succeed him until his son Edward put an end to the debate with a sword and army, thus the title King became hereditary.

After many centuries and many rulers each glorified in song and story enough land had been conquered that a Kingdom was no longer grand enough and so the monarch of the time proclaimed himself Emperor and King of Kings. Over time there have been many Emperors, some mad and some brilliant and some famous like Arturo the Falcon who founded the Falcon Guard which guards the royal family after he single handed killed an ambush that was sent to kill him so the Runelia dynasty would end. Now the empire stands a permanent ficture of the lands plains.

Appearence:

Affiliation: The Oltenian Empire
Role/Rank: Emperor
Special Items: The Crown of Arthur 1st

Likes: Anything that advances the Empire whether in power, land or technology. Innovation and thinking outside of the box and finally tolerance.

Strengths: An exceptional duelist, a brilliant orator able to lift up a crowd and well liked by most classes.
Weaknesses: Has an inability to play the intrigue game, reckless and inexperienced.

Biography: Arthur was born at exactly midnight in the Imperial Palace during the ball to celebrate the recent Imperial annexation if the Zarinthia provinces. As the Emperors fist child and a boy at that he was paraded not an hour after his birth to the nobles in attendance and it is said the wine flowed for weeks in the Empire afterwards now with two things to celebrate.

As the heir to the throne he was being groomed to rule from a very early age and he seemed to spend every waking moment with some different tutor always the best of their profession apparently. The only break seemed to be the birth of his younger brother Thomas at age 5 and all that seemed to do is give him one more person to share the arduous hours with the tutors with. He was finally presented to the court on his 10th birthday and was received with great interest being the heir.

Not 3 months after this a terrible event occurred, in what was known as the Great Betrayal the Lord Commander of the Falcon Guard slew his Emperor and Empress whilst they slept before turning himself in with no resistance and a smile on his face, when asked why he was so happy all he kept saying was "Because I'll be free soon". The chaos was immediate with many calling for a council of nobles to decide a successor to the throne to avoid instability under a 10 year old child, however, after extensive torture the Lord Commander revealed who ordered him to commit treason and a prominent Duke was named. It seemed the Duke wished to use the instability to claim the throne as the most viable candidate and would have made the Commander a Duke in his own right, after this the Duke and Lord Commander were executed and no one dared mention their rights to the throne again and the 10 year old Arthur was crowned Emperor. A Regency Council was put in place for 6 years but the people delighted at their young Emperor who often made personal appearences and gave gifts to them, his development over the years gave him a sense as the entire Empires son. When the Regency ended he implemented great reforms giving the people more rights than ever before and counteracted this by opening his personal treasury to struggling nobles thus earning him love from all sides. He has ruled ever since as a popular ruler but now he seeks more than the borders of his already large Empire.

Basic idea I've been working on for how every military confrontation should go. Doesn't necessarily have to be strictly followed, just there to direct the RP on which army is taking the upperhand in a battle.

History of Nation: In 643 AE the Osaka Clan and the Honda Clan became the two largest families. One member of the Osaka Clan, Osaka Tideki, was born in the village of Ashkaga. He would grow up to become one of the smartest members of the family, he married the daughter of the Daimyo of the Province. He used his new power to rise up the ranks of the military From here he used his political power to take control of the Daimyo's court, using his influence he could achieve his dreams. He was able to get the best military assignments and afterwards get the best of the spoils of war. When the Daimyo died, he made sure all the heirs were killed and then took the position of Daimyo of his province. (At this time the Daimyo were like warlords who owned a small piece of land).

With his new power Tideki rechristened himself, Ashkaga Edo. At this time he had five sons: Song, Wei, Nihong, Matsudaira, and Takeda. He trained his sons in the ways of his new dynasty, sending them to train with his childhood friend and legendary general Judo Mai. He secured many strong alliances with surrounding Daimyos by marrying his sons to their daughters. After securing this power over the neighboring provinces he lead a conquest of all the Oriental Provinces (Oriental being Japanese/Korean Cultures). He was not able to finish his dream of conquering all of the oriental lands, he was assinated by Jiang Nagahito at the age of 62. His most powerful son Ashkaga Matsudaira succeeded him at the wishes of his brothers, his father's generals, the other allied Daimyo, and his wife.

Matsudaira used his forces to destroy the Remaining Clans in the south before heading up north to fight the Goreung Confederation in the North. Matsudaira quickly attack the Seoul Clan and the Pusan Clan which were the two southern most clans. But after this a force of 80,000 Retainers and 40,000 Cavalry attacked him from behind. In the battle of Manchu, Matsudaira's force of 15,000 held strong for 3 months in a small Fort, as Ninjas kept sneaking out to send messages to his generals. His father's old friend Judo Mai, came with a force of 10,000 Yari, 2,000 Retainers, 5,000 Ashikari, and 100 Heavy Samurai. Mai sent a Ninja to the fortress to let Matsudaira know of his plan. In the dead of night, Mai's Ashikaris sent silent volleys of arrows killing the sentries of the camp of the Goreung force. Then his troops snuck into the Camp, killed the general, stole the food and weapons, and then lit some of the tents on fire before escaping. In the morning half the force was dead, and the other half retreated from the camp only to be slaughtered by Mai's army. Mai and Matsudaira joined their forces for the remaineder of the invasion they quickly reach the capital of the Goreung Confederation, Angalp'o, where the king of the Confederation surrendered and then commit Sepoku.

Matsudaira had accomplished his father's dream. He then United the country into a single empire. Many people had trouble in their lives, and unrest began to grow. So Matsudaira had a Plan, he invaded the powerful trading state of Canton. Quickly storming the cities of Hong Kong and Hunan. He pushed them all the way to the coasts, they retread to their islands and the great city of Shangri La. The Matsudaira were unable to get to the islands and match the naval might of the Cantonese. He had a great idea, the Turtle Ship, a ship covered with metal and wood plating and a large roof, the turtle ship couldn't be boarded. The Ashkaga then loaded catapults and ballistas onto the ships. They attack the Cantonese Armada and uses the Turtle ships to strike the enemy fleets at their most vulnerable points. They even sunk one of the main flagships of the enemy navy. The Ashkaga then pursued the armada. Then asmall force of ships went to far ahead, they encountered the armada, who turned to destroy the small force. The ships fled back to the Ashkaga fleet, When the armada came to the Ashkaga fleet they begin to turn their ships and flee, but the current changed and the ships crashed into each other. The Ashkaga assaulted the remaining ships and destroyed the last of the Cantonese Armada.

The Cantonese Surrendered and gave up mostly assimilating into the Ashkaga culture. The following Emperor unified the country, built schools, revitalized the economy, developed the mining industry, and help establish the culture of the nation. Big cities like the capital Kansai became massive cities filled with libraries, universities, museums, and much more.

Character Application
Name: Sidriel Valmihr
Date of Birth: 730 AE
Birthplace: Merithia
Age: 16
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Personality: Highly logical, believes very strongly in viewing everything with suspicion- even given facts presented by authority, like "the elves are evil".
Appearance: Dirty blonde hair that's kept in a braid, green eyes, freckles, wears noble clothing.
Affiliation: Merithia
Role/Rank: Councillor's daughter
Special Items: The Pahlia, an ancient elven scroll that contains near-forgotten lore, and some spells.
Equipment: Twin daggers.
Likes:
-Elven culture
-Politics
-Myths
Dislikes:
-Religion
-Father
-Slavery/low-paying servitude
Strengths: Highly analytical, highly observant
Weaknesses: Raised as a noblewoman, so she had little training in fighting or self-defense. She also doesn't fully understand peasants, although she empathizes and comprehends the hardships of slaves and unpaid servants. She's had experience with them, so she thinks their issues outweigh those of commoners' issues.
Biography: Sidriel's father has been a member of the Merithian Council of Many for as long as she can remember. His political fame hasn't earned her many friends. She always saw most other noblewoman as snobbish or rude because she became super good friends with her handmaiden, Assoya, at a young age. She also ignored most guys her age, mainly because every time she talked to someone who was facing an inheritance, her father would try to arrange a marriage contract. Sidriel was taught some self-defense as a child, and learned a royal fighting style that focused on two knives, but once she started to get good at it, her parents refocused her attention on studying history and religion in order to become a better wife in the future. Unfortunately, Sidriel's two past politically-benefiting betrothals have both fallen through, which her father blames completely on her. Sidriel doesn't want to marry and become a wife, but rather study Elven culture and any mythology which includes dragons or mages.
RP Example: none, sorry

Character mechanics statistics:
Health- 10, human
Skill- 15 points
Currency- I'm not sure. 20 coins is basic, but I feel like I should have more because of noble rank. No one else has used RP mechanics in their character profiles, so I'm just going to assume it doesn't really matter, although having money restrictions (and then like hiring freelancers or like renting rooms or buying things or jobs) is a really cool addition to RP and all.
Equipment- Twin daggers.
Free-lancers- None hired,
Leveling- Level 1, I guess
Renown- 10 (She has noble rank, so that's a tad higher than traveler, but she's not high on the royal rankings. I called her "the honorable" once, which is the title for a marquess's daughter, but the nation she's from doesn't have ranks like that apparently)
Magic- 20 magic points, learned from Sidriel's uncle and the Pahlia/other elven lore. Doesn't know how to use it, or that she has the ability to perform magic, at the start.
