===Cyril===
====XBlessed Kingdom of Karlikov==== The traditional homeland of the dwarves, Karlikov is one of the oldest kingdoms still standing (a feat which is debated with the elven nation on which one is truly older). It is a massive country, taking up much of the land of Cyril and filled with a great deal of empty barren tundra. Dotted among the wastelands, great stone cities stand tall and rimed with unmelting ice, while deep inside its frozen exterior great forges draw up warmth from deep below. Like a glacier, the dwarven cities one sees on the surface is but a small part of the city as a whole. One can never tell when you may be walking over downtown in the city if it is underground. The government is a constitutional monarchy, currently run by Queen Aym. It is generally considered a LN society, though the queen herself has been viewed unfavorably for her apparent greed and power hunger. They currently are in a small civil war with Burya, though it is more of a cold war than anything. If a comparison to Earth could be made, Karlikov would be Russian in design. ====Burya==== Not all dwarves agreed with the policy choices of Karlikov. Fearing the rise of other powers, then Baron Krepost chose to defect and assume control over a small territory of gnomes and humans Karlikov held in the southern end of the continent, near Esperant. After some fighting, Karlikov chose to abandon the territory to Krepost and the land became known as Burya. It is a poor country running on scraps, as the land here has already been mined dry. Instead, Burya seeks to stay afloat through various international deals, including mercenary work done all around the world. The government is a military dictatorship, run by Chairman Krepost. It is generally considered a CN society, whose words speak hostility but actions speak very little, as they realize they are too small to effect the world at large yet. They focus their efforts on gaining more defectors from Karlikov to join their side. As a result, they are currently in a small civil war with Karlikov, but it is more of a cold war than anything. If a comparison to Earth could be made, Burya would be Russian in design. ====New Zadarmo==== This is a small nation formed largely of druegar which have escaped their underdark slavers with the help of the giant tribes which live nearby. To the giants, the land is Vrch (pronounced Verch), but for the druegar it is New Zadarmo. When the dark dwarves first burrowed up from the tunnels from the underdark here, they were originally flooding Karlikov. But soon it became apparent that Karlikov and druegar would not easily mix, and draw the attention of things below if they began to shelter them. Rather than risk it, a small area of land was given for their own small nation. Of course, even with newfound freedom, the druegar here are neither happy nor kind. Dour as ever, they dedicate their time sealing passages to the underdark and slaying drow. Their persistence for revenge has made them formidable for such a tiny nation as far as military is concerned, but generally poor and behind the times in every other aspect. At the very least, they are insular and as long as they are undisturbed, they want for nothing.
===Esperant===
====XHomaro Kingdom==== The prime moving force in Esperant is the human-dominated kingdom of Homaro. It is a rising power in the world, enough to rival even the dwarven empire. Though still small in comparison, the growth in Homaro has been nothing short of incredible, largely due to great expeditions that have been made overseas to the continent of Pintado and rediscovering the secrets of old Vulpeculae. What riches they have brought back has only strengthened a nation made strong on the back of effective trading and services it provides to other nations. Without firing a single shot, Homaro is on the route to conquer the world through economic might. It is also a living justification for Burya that humans are a danger. The government is a constitutional monarchy, run by King Cheval. It is generally considered a TN society, accepting of many and bothering few. If a comparison to Earth could be made, Homaro would be French in design. ====Schönheit==== Filled with a mixture of humans, shortfolk, and other races, Schönheit is a melting pot of art and culture. Though Homaro is winning the economic war, the culture war comes from this land. With close ties to Homaro benefiting the nation they can afford to sink their efforts into art, science, and construction. It is becoming a centerpoint of world wonders, with new designs drafted daily. Of course, one must wonder when the money train will end and some whisper in the streets that one day Schönheit will simply be absorbed by Homaro as a territory. The government is a republic, run by Prime Minister Klein. It is generally considered a NG society, with an easy-going society. If a comparison to Earth could be made, Schönheit would be German in design. ====Democratic Society of Iroas==== The history of this small nation on the coast is a long and troubled one, having been conquered many times over the history. It once existed and was lost, but in recent times it has returned thanks to the newfound stability that exists due to Homaro's influence on the local area. Though the nation has not been in effect for long, it yet has a rich if not bloody history. Its people were once legendary warriors, and even in slavery they found themselves as combatants in arenas or soldiers abroad. This nation takes their bloody history and celebrates it, both as a triumph of resistance and as a reminder to never fall prey to it again. Its people are fiercely individualistic, and value freedom over all else.
