Your Nation's Fact of the Week

[Zhouran]

In Zhouran, there are more pickup trucks and SUVs than smaller passenger vehicles such as sedans and hatchbacks, this is mainly due to pickup trucks being utility-oriented while SUVs having high-passenger capacity and off-road capability. As a result, Zhouranese people generally drive larger cars than people from other parts of Asia. Another reason is because multi-lane roads in Zhouran such as main roads and highways are known to be quite wide.

Before becoming the Jarl of Hermand, Thorald til Ysmir was a raider and a mercenary. He had his own host (Thorald's Host), the total number of which varied between 1,500 and 3,200, a fleet made of 35 longboats, and he primarily raided the coasts of the Solanea. His most famous raid, the sacking of Marius, took him all the way to the Merchant Republic of Marius. He was victorious, making an enormous fortune in his raid, but he lost nearly all of his men on that battle. His return to Hermand (a favorable coastal tribe that he could make land in and bring his trek to Blueriver and sell off his loot) coincided with the Jomsrit of 4E 234, the date Hermand was attacked by the Crusader King of Palatine. His brave rescue of gyðja Ingrid was what gave Ulfric -the then-Jarl of Hermand- the idea to welcome him to the Hermand Tribe and make him head of his own clan.

Similar to the StormArea51 meme in the US, recently there is a meme called Black Site Christmas Raid created by Zhouranese netizens, calling for mass raids on the numerous Zhouranese black-sites (classified military and research installations) across the Zhouranese archipelago and overseas territories on the date of Christmas Eve. The meme states that the government has been housing aliens and alien-tech in the black sites for decades now and that Kang Yingyong will use the aliens to "Thanos-Snap" anyone he hates. While the meme is mostly ironic, some Zhouranese netizens however seem quite serious about it. A spokesperson from the People's Defense Council stated "people should stay away from highly-restricted military and research stations for the sake of their personal safety and national security" and that raiding these black sites would pose a "security threat to national stability and integrity".

[Gwrachbyd]

earlier today during a test flight of a BF1 hammerhead fighter fitted with some new systems, pilot commander Davies lost control of the craft causing his wing to clip the runway resulting in loo of half his right wing, ground crew feared the worst as the craft tumbled out of control towards the hanger and nearby adminstrative buildings only for commander Davies to somehow regain control and pull up over the buildings and bring the craft down safely in a near by field at the end of the runway, the whole incident lasting little more than 4 minuets

Corruption is nearly non-existent in Eirian politics, mainly because the Eirian Military has a Branch Called the Guard of The Republic, which investigates all powerful Candidates. There are also Non-government Corruption investigators, the most prominent of which is called Providence.

If you hitler salute in public during a rally, you can be sent to life imprisonment depending on the circumstances.

[Zhouran]

Due to Zhouran's nomadic origins and several-millennia long history of golden ages characterized by scientific growth and dark violent ages characterized by violent conflicts, both craftsmanship and science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are considered to be extremely-important in the growth of the Zhouranese Kangyuli civilization. As a result, academic elitism from both the vocational and STEM sectors of Zhouranese education are highly-common. Skilled workers such as tradesmen and engineers are considered to be the Ideal Workers of the People and are classed being one of two social-pillars, the other being the soldiers in the role of the Eternal Warriors of the Motherland. Zhouran's syncretic third-position nature strongly places the Workers' & Soldiers on a pedestal, thus making them the ideal collective role-models for Zhouran's highly-nationalistic youths.

[Gaeilia-Brithon]

The education services of Gaeilia-Brithon-Iberi teach a language constructed by the linguist Dr. Oisin Ceallaígh as a pan-Celtic auxiliary language. It is the language of politics, business, and most higher education, and is mutually intelligible to Breton, Welsh, Cornish, and the Gaelic tongues to some degree, but is most similar overall to Irish. This language is actually spoken consistently over local tongues in few households.

Despite facilitating control over several hundred thousand non-artificial universes, the Primordiality wishes to maintain a rather unnoticeable reign and does rarely ever interfere in the internal mechanisms of these. Should action be necessary, the Abraadhru retain control over innumerable hordes of subjects standing by to enforce their collected will.

[Voxija]

The only time a school in Voxija has ever banned Harry Potter:

In 2008, Eturrija Private School in the small town of Goxtaja took the Harry Potter series out of its library because the faculty were afraid younger children might read the later books and be traumatized. After 430 students from the higher grades (the majority, small town, remember?) signed a petition to bring back Harry Potter, Harry Potter was brought back.

[Subhurbia]

If it wasn’t for the divisions being united, the South Division (formally known as Pyraeta) would attempt to expand and spread their influence across the entire Suhurbian landmass. This could have possibly lead to a heavy war, with death tolls in the millions.

Zhouran's National Rapid Maglev Railway Network is the world's fastest operational high-speed maglev railway as well as the first commercially-successful maglev railway. Unlike the Shanghai Maglev Train, which is a rapid transit system serving within a city and operates at a slower speed, the NRMRN is an inter-city rail system like that of the slower more-conventional National Rail Network and National High-Speed Rail Network. Unlike the German Transrapid maglev design, which has lower speeds and uses electromagnetic suspension, the more-sophisticated design for NRMRN maglev trains use electrodynamic suspension while the trains operate at higher speeds than foreign designs. NRMRN maglev trains on the Provincial Rapid Maglev Railways operate at higher speeds than even NHSRN high-speed trains on National High-Speed Railways while on the other hand, maglev trains on the National Rapid Maglev Railways provide the world's fastest passenger rail service. The National Rapid Maglev Railway Network acts as a medium between the National High-Speed Rail Network and air transportation.

[Lillorainen]

One of the most spectacular crimes in the younger criminal history of Lillorainen was the Bruckweiler-Tunnel. From December 2018 to June 2019, a gang of bank robbers, who intended to empty the vault room of the Bruckweiler Bank in Sandscheid (Fyleria), managed to dig a tunnel from an underground carpool to the vault room, using various disguises in order to not be noticed. In one night, they blew the massive concrete wall around the room up, and while this did get noticed, the gang had already disappeared with their prey as the police arrived. They are still on the Wanted list.
The case made it into Lillorainen's Most Wanted, with the case being reconstructed in a film with 26 minutes of total length.
