Dragons are cool! Some are forces for good even, seriously

Anyhow...In our country
All forms of marriage are permitted provided that the government arranges the marriage at a cost. Recently, some nobles have been selling people through corporate means, in which several people can 'marry' shares in a 'spouse'. The nobility has also recently set up a Soul Market, in which people can buy and sell portions of someone's soul. Also rape is considered a form of marriage in our nation and rapists are deified as lesser gods in our pantheon.

Thats nice. In our nation, people marry cars, pigs, statues, bridges, the earth, fictional little girls, fictional little ponies, and even a photograph of Hitler. And still ... Homosexual marraige is still illegal.

Oh no we allow gay marriage. However, and here's the kicker, sex{homosexual activities included) is illegal and carry the death penalty officially. In actuality, sex is administered by a government run prostitution ring.

Communism is highly stigmatized, yet, the largest and most dominant party was an offshoot of a communist party and holds some similar views on certain issues.

Nothing to see here, folks. Please move along...
What's up with all these folks nowadays making nations that don't use NS stats? It's always "Multiversal Soul-Snatchers" this or "Tier Infinity Poly-Galactic Mercs" that. I mean, stats are the whole point, right? You know, the thing that makes this different from your run-of-the-mill role-playing forum? Yeah, they're flawed, but its the ridiculousness that makes this game absolutely FANTASTIC
And copying taking creative liberties with Warhammer 40K or Eldritch nonsense doesn't make you as unique as you think...

Remember to enjoy your stay, and please don't feed the wildlife.

The Central Lake of Tyrandel (now known as Dead Lake) is a massive desolate and uninhabitable stew of corrosion and pollution - on purpose. This was done in response to highly lethal waterborne diseases mutating into airborne strains, prompting the Emperor to order soldiers to pour various superacids and carcinogens into the Lake in order to kill everything in it.

The oceans surrounding Tyrandel are quite clean however and advanced purification facilities exist in almost every body of freshwater.

We sometimes catch glimpses of those flying iron machines the Frenks use for war. It's a shame. All that metal could construct shelter for all the homeless wanderers in the desert.

While there are a number of worlds with a significant lack of technology compared to the rest of Occupied Space, they don't exist with enough frequency to necessitate universal laws governing the proper conduct when dealing with these worlds. Cue people such as combat cyborgs and corporate trained psykers declaring themselves gods on these worlds.

We have legitimate gods in our nation, both Archailects (Technological gods), and Deities (Magical gods), including some hybrids of the two. However, almost all of them strongly dislike being worshipped as gods, and are major advocates for secularism and atheism.

Doom is our god and greatly enjoys being worshipped, he also tells us to kill all other religious organisations, he doesn't like competition.
Neither do we, btw, so don't get yourself any ideas!

Not really. We know enough to ensure our tribe lives well and comfortably. We get most of this knowledge from the spirits of our ancestors*.

*=old books we found laying around the public libraries.

Some like to think of the sun as a god. We don't really believe that, but we like to humor those that do.
