In light of the corrective thread requirements for Factbooks & National Information, this thread has been created to house all of the short-form national lore for your nation, and other topics of discussion which, on their own, would not be substantial enough for an entire topic to be dedicated to them. (Many thanks to Quamenlau for the terminology and Vespertania for the general idea.)
Please note: this thread is not meant to serve as a replacement for threads in F&NI, the copious amounts of threads here or elsewhere which may assist in broader worldbuilding and nation-creation discussion, nor for the F&NI Help Thread, but meant to serve as a supplement to them. Moderation understands that there is a certain attraction to short-form lore; it's also true that many forms of such simply cannot, without significant additional substance, stand alone as rule-abiding threads. That's what this thread is meant to assist with. This is not a chat thread, nor a "spam" thread; general, topical discussion is acceptable, but off-topic content or spam will result in removal and/or punitive actions as warranted.
If this thread proves untenable or becomes rife with spam, it will be locked in turn. Do not let that occur. If you see spam, report it.
With the disclaimer out of the way, then what is this thread for? Off-hand questions of curiosity, short-form surveys and questionnaires, general questions of topical interest to factbooking about other player's nations and entities, and generally any worldbuilding topic that is too insubstantial to be readily made into a standalone thread. Players are encouraged to ask their questions about other nations, and other players will answer them at their leisure. Some examples include...
- What side of the road does your nation drive on?
- What are the most popular colors of your people?
- What real-world nation, if any, inspired yours?
- How old is(/are) your leader(s)?
- What tech-level is your nation?
- And short surveys that would not suffice on their own.
