POLITICS

NIX

Nix is ruled by one king and thirteen lords who help control the different states and the king and each of the lords have ten advisers that help them know what to do all the men in the national government is appointed by the king.  Within the state government all men are appointed by one of the lords. The king is named Edward the brave. The English name was given to him because about five hundred years from this king’s time (for the continent has long since sunk) English sailors were shipwrecked and met the Nixians and taught them English and English was considered a language of kings and so the sailors gave them the knowledge of Europe.

MERID

Merid has many states each is ruled by a duke each duke is controlled by a man named Ting Tashan Elpa who rules over the whole country and has direct power over the army and everything else in the entire kingdom

ALEE

Alee is completely controlled by duke smo Tarcheen from Merid all though they do not know or care because they are so isolated

SOL

Sol is technically not a country it is merely a part of land that is so dangerous because of theirs and murderers. It used to be a part of Fulmen but it was all desert land and was not worth much so in order to make things easier on all the police trying to get that band of robbers which was so massive and to clear the prisons of those terrible people and so they decided to just get rid of the place so they could make war on it. Sol pretends to be a country now to get trade and so they are not raided but it has become obvious that they need to be destroyed.

FULMEN

Fulmen is ruled by the great sieh or emperor his name is Tux Tyumen Ling. The Fulmen Empire is well taken care of by the churches of Fulmen. Also the borders are well secured Because of the massive armies trying to get through Fulmen to get to the golden isles of Galop.   

GALOP

Galop has much foreign influence because it has a land border with every country on the continent except Alee and Nix Galop is also a sailor country so they have influence from every country on the continent the rulers of Galop are called Zerbie the Zerbie is a group of men that decide how much taxes are paid and what the taxes go towards the Zerbie are also the men that decide who will control the army of the Nation they also decide who will represent the Zerbie by enforcing laws.

CELIBRATIONS

Alee has very little celibtions this because they live very far apart so they have very few peoples so that is why they have so little holidays. The celebrations in Merid, Galop, Sol, and Fulmen are all grouped up around their gods birth days. In Galop there is in the month of March and April thirty days in which celebrations of all kinds happen. Fulmen and Sol do the same thing except in June and July. Nix has all the same Christian Holidays and so I do not need to tell you about that

RELIGION

 Fulmen is religiously dived In Fulmen there are five versions of sun worship all are different only by the date they believe that the sun was born. All over Fulmen and Sol there are temples with a giant gold circle on top much like Sol’s flag with the inscription Sol Spectate which is Latin for sun is watching under the circle is an underground temple Galop has over twelve gods and goddesses these the are the most important Collemtine god of Earth, Owenta god of water and Celentius god of light only a few temples are made for these gods but these temples are massive they are made of stone [K1] and are over one hundred feet tall. In Alee each family has a miniature temple in the back yard in which grate pots of water are filed and boiled every night creating steam in which men meditate for answers from the moon.

ARTS AND SPORTS

The national arts and sports of Sol and Fulmen are mostly the same because sol used to be part of the country also to be fair Sol is not really a country and does not have much art but Fulmen is a very athletic country and has many players in the International collegian games which every nation enters athletes in there are javelin throwers shark wrestlers horse races and more all. Theas sports are performed in something like the coliseum. For shark wrestling the bottom is filled with water and sharks are lowered in to the water and the players are equipped with  long poles to fend of the shark but the players are still supposed to bring the shark to the ground for one second for running the runners are put on a track and have to get to the other side without being hurt by a lion the javelin throwers then rush out when the runners get of an are required to kill the lions so the runners can begin the last part of the race on horseback this in a way is like a circus and so it kind of was every day more people will come to do it.
