Here is my collection: Prideful Mottos

According to google translate, “Et cor meum super aurum” (the motto of Lesra) means "The heart of gold." I also looked up what “Semper Invicta” (the motto of Bennopolia) means and it means "Always Invincible" or "Always Undefeated."

I really like this collection! Mind if you keep it after the competition, so I can add it to the collection thread? I ask because there have been a lot of wonderful collections submitted here, but owners often delete them and junk the cards after the competition ends.

Thanks! I've now added it to the Nature subcategory under Theme Packs on the thread. I hope it also wins this competition!

Looking forward to seeing collections for this month. :)

My entry is Peace, Love and Orwellian Dictatorship
Ransium is peaceful because, well, look at that tree. Is that peaceful or what?
Ditto with mountain Ash Forests, but more trees here.
Domanania has a white bird like a dove, and a peaceful blue background.
Gileana and Athos Five have nice peaceful moths.
The name Utopotia speaks for itself.
Williamshire reminds me of "Shire", which is the peaceful congenial region in Middle Earth where Hobbits live.
Eraver is peaceful on RP.

I’ve selected cards from within my entire collection to assemble ‘The Peace Within’. Each card is peaceful of itself of course, but I’ve also tried to ensure each rarity grouping is in harmony, as well as creating a whole from interactive harmonies between all the rarities. Scroll and enjoy!

The Peace Within

Thank you so much Praeceps for giving us this opportunity to create and showcase different kinds of card collections, my favourite card game activity! There are some terrific collections here. A shame they get deleted...then again transience is good too. I’ll be back for more of these :)

Finding Peace

One of the most peaceful places I know is my parent's new house in a mountainous, provincial area of my country, so I wanted to represent that here.

Verdant Haven represents the trees my parents had in their garden. To be specific, there was one really tall one, which I would sit beside when I was younger. The property, as I said, was situated in a mountainous, provincial area, so I represented it with Kyldellian Galnge.

You'd also find Drasnia and The Ziron Empire. The flags feature a deer and a dove, which are both symbols of peace, love, and harmony.

Lastly, you'd find Perfect Unreality. This is meant to show that while peace may seem unrealistic or too perfect and idealistic to some people, it is a perfect unreality, a project we hope to fulfill.

Here's my July entry. Most cards share the RIP theme but I also added 3 "scenery" cards because looking at the stars in the forest, being out in the ocean, or looking at a river running through a forest makes me feel at peace.

Mostly just symbols and things that can bring peace.

Admire them or deplore them, these women all command our respect:

Thank you, Praeceps, The Northern Light, and all the Guild members who liked my collection. I think Undivulged Principles will fit into my Distant Lands collection very nicely. I appreciate The Northern Light's generosity! :bow:

Congratulations to Dr. Hooves on assembling a masterful, if peaceful, deck of cards. :clap:

Religion and law are two institutions that advocate for respect for individual rights against the arbitrariness of rule by fiat.
