Welcome to the Academy! Eurth is a veritable paradise, a mix and match of the most exotic and mundane nations, creatures and characters one could imagine. From the deep depths of the Adlantic Ocean to the neutral waters of the Keelpijppassage, from the temperamental people of Argis to the relaxed islanders of Marenesia, there is something to enjoy and partake in. Take a seat, young padawan student and let your good old Uncle V tell you what's what. Europa is a long-standing region with a history of role-playing that dates back more than a decade.

As written by @Metztlitlaca: UPDATE (12th June 2021) The Terms of a member's nation to be erased have been changed. Metacommentary posts (posts that are not RP, Factbooks, Expansion/Reserve Posts, or similar) do not count towards time since activity as metacommentary posts can be used as a loophole to unfairly extend inactivity. Also, recently graduated members that have officially been added to the map will have a 2 month time limit (60 days) before they are removed from the map again. This of course only applies if a member of the community has not made any posts to declare their inactivity (it should be stated that posts that declare inactivity for an unfores…

History: Geography: The Charkov Peninsula (as the name implies) is a peninsula. It has a relatively cold climate, with heavy snow in the winter. On the inland part of the territory owned by the nation, there are large mountains dominated by the clans from the timeline. (Although I have been eyeing a spot on the map and its more hills than mountains, but the rest of it is flat like how I imagine it) It is similar to North-Eastern Europe, North-West Russia and Siberian Russia. Much of the country is dominated by low to medium density forests, although in some places it can reach quite a high density. Ethnicity: I imagine the people of The …

Note: This is not completed nor is it canon to the Eurth lore or TCP lore, it is simply a rough outline of what I imagine the timeline would look like. With numbers of people, such as casualties or refugees I know these are quite large and in reality would probably be far less once it is improved. I have not written anything before 0CE, and my idea for before the reign of the Charkov family the kingdom was ruled by a few other families prior, and before that it was just some small villages. Now without another delay, this is the timeline. Timeline Early history 1489 – Charkov Royal Family begins reign 1746 – Peak of The Kingdom of Charkov (I barely know…

Zagireth, the biggest and oldest city of the zone, is settled on a fluvial delta. Founded by fleeing refugees from a dictatorship in their ancestral home, they established relations with the nomadic tribes that used the river as a seasonal pit stop. The name “Zagireth” comes from the native's name for the river itself, in fact. Due to the relatively sparse population on the zone and the neighboring unstable borders, the lands surrounding Zagireth soon serve as a new home to several other people looking for a second chance. Zagireth established strong interdependable relations with them, thanks to the similar history and mutual needs. In time, they united into a confe…

Headquarters of the Korocian Supreme Soviet. March 3, 1990. 08:30 local time. Less than 21 hours since Mijo Žarko was declared dead. The council assembled at the table where their meetings typically took place. At the head of the table, replacing Žarko, was his much younger great-nephew, Vitomir Žarko. To his right sat his great-uncle's deputy, Zoran Javor. To his left sat Marko Siniša, minister of administrative affairs. Lastly, the representatives of the states of Korocia took the other seats at the table. Konstantin Andreja of Sernovia and Nikša Zdeslav of Kovarcika. The seat for the Svisk representative stood ominously empty. Vitomir cleared his throat …

The Federal Republic of Korocia is the modern iteration of the Korocian dream: one nation, three distinct yet unified peoples. Throughout its history, Korocia has survived through several iterations: The independent nations of Sernovia, Kovarcika, and Sviskistan (Pre - 1913). The State of Korocia (1913 - 1976). The Korocian People’s Republic (1976 - 1990). The Federal Republic of Korocia (1997 - Present). As of today, Korocia struggles with unity. Several movements advocate for independent states, while others push for new, more radical forms of government. The current economic situation doesn't help in this matter either.…

Ashur heaved and sighed through the mud, struggling to move the cart wheels as they sank ever so frustratingly in the slimy morass that the rainy season had turned the fields of Absaroka into. The light of the morning shined just ahead of him and the roughly one million others who made a trail, no, a human wave behind him, long broken from the tight formation they had hastily formed in that smoke and sulfer-filled night at New Yerushailem, nevermind all that. The prophet had directed that forward is the only direction to look, the sun was ahead of him now, and in one glorious moment all the suffering would be for something. With one mighty heave left, the cart clumsi…

It has been said that the character of a land shapes the people who inhabit it. Entire cultures can shift with the current of a mighty river or the color of a native flower. To those who inhabit the surrounding lands of Uteblic, they see a people born of a stranger’s land; who have superimposed themselves onto something common. A nation of peculiarities founded by sinners and saints; the greedy hand of the prospector and the weathered hands of prophets have migrated and touched this land equally and made their mark on what would become the people of Uteblic; the only question is whether the people of this desert nation will blossom on the wurld stage, or go it alone, bein…

Charois waited confidently behind the curtain on the stage, listening to his Vice Prime Minister Lisa giving a short pre-address speech. It gave him a little snippet of time to think over the events of the last six months, something which had become increasingly scarce in recent times. In just a short time, he had gone from a Senior LM FMP to the leader of the party in a shock victory, to now having brought the party to one of its most significant victories in recent memory. It had been a grueling campaign trail, filled with sleepless nights rehearsing speeches and memorizing statistics for debates while on the road. But despite the difficulties he had faced, he wouldn't …

Geography The Mavranai Federation would lie in a temperate or Mediterranean climate, with fertile lands allowing it to maintain its high population despite its historically small area. The Federation would also have a river splitting it down the middle, the Rozo or Rose, historically providing vital irrigation for farms and allowing for easier transport due to its slow movement. In addition to this, the Federation would be coastal, which would allow it easier access to international trade. While the cities of the Federation are quite heavily developed due to consistently high federal funding, much of the country and population is still spread throughout much more rur…

- Morning Chen Rui woke up to the soft hum of her alarm at 5:30 AM. She stretched, feeling the familiar aches from yesterday's patrol. The morning light filtered through the thin curtains of her modest apartment, casting a warm glow on the photographs lining her dresser—pictures of her son’s first steps, family gatherings, and her graduation from the police academy. She tiptoed to the kitchen, careful not to wake her eight-year-old son, Jin. Her husband, Li Wei, was already up, sipping tea and reading the morning news. He smiled at her, a comforting presence in the quiet dawn. "Morning, Rui. Big day today?" "Every day’s big in this city," she replied, smili…

In the heart of Velika. The country was at a crossroads, and all eyes were on President Cyril Żołądź. Having only recently unified and only on it’s second president, he had large shoes to fill given the success of his predecessor in keeping it together. This wasn’t his first major address but it would be his most important as President, especially as a recent elect. Cyril stood in his office, gazing out the grand window that overlooked the capital city of Vrány. The sun was setting, casting a warm, golden hue over the city's ancient spires and modern buildings. These were pivotal years for Velika, and Cyril knew the weight of his words tonight could shape the nation'…

(For now, the situation of the Island is very unstable, and many goals and ideological points should be marked more as goals rather than realities) More infos on the wiki page, WIP to make it coherent https://iiwiki.us/wiki/Nuevalta Etymology Nuevalta derives from the roots of the old Fragran language "Nueva-" meaning new and "Alta-", meaning height or mount. This name reflects the historical trend, during the era of the Aroman Empire, to establish new cities on natural mountains, providing strategic advantages for defense and trade. When the Lysiens arrived, they also named the island this way. Geography Landscape: The city of Aurora-Nova …

(OOC. My First RP post, seems like Nuevalta and the USA will have something to share.) Part 1/3 ## Message 013844-N on 03/07/2024 Classification: Urgent-A, Confidential Recipient: Ministry of Overseas Territories, Lyrie Sender: Prefecture of Nuevalta Minister, I believe this will be my last message to you as the prefect and administrator of Nuevalta, not knowing if it will reach you. The unthinkable, sir, has occurred this morning around 9 AM. Usually, we only receive technicians from the mainland, the families of our administrators, a few idle tourists, and about as many outlaws of all kinds, whom our small militia of natives and private employee…

Geography Emyleryn's geography is characterized by rolling hills and lush grasslands throughout the nation. Much of the population lives in the Eastern and Northeastern regions of the country, nestled along the rivers and lowlands. Huge regions of western Emyleryn are agricultural or nature parks. The southern portion of the nation is slightly mountainous and is where almost all of Emyleryn’s limited natural resources occur, most notably the often criticized mining industry. (More to come with map) History (WIP) (Can adjust history to fit region) Emyleryn was founded officially in 1933, after the official dissolution of the Kingdom of Tam…

Eshagen Palace, Eshagen, Loudon, United Kingdom of Emyleryn, July 24th, 1975 King Phillip II stirs uncomfortably in his office, pondering what next move his government might take. “Sir — are you nervous?,” inquired Tom Cedric, one of the national security advisors. “Don’t be.” Spoke a gruff-looking man in his mid-60s, referred to only as Mr. Kadill, “We can have them cleared out in a few hours.” Phillip, now seated and anxiously chewing a toothpick, finally spoke up with fearless confidence. “No. It’s not enough, we mustn’t simply disperse… we need to distance ourselves from the masses. We cannot continue in the lap of the citizens, we must build anew …

After two weeks of sudden inactivity and constant revisions, I've finally been able to make my own Vision Statement before making the ARP. Have a good time reading! 1. Geography The geography of Brittané-Scotia is characterized by rugged terrain, with numerous fjords, mountains, and glacial valleys. The northern coast, in particular, is famed for its fjords, including the Thorismund Fjord and Theodoric Fjord. The climate varies significantly due to the country's length and varied topography; the western coastal areas experience a maritime climate with mild winters and cool summers. In contrast, the country's interior regions have a more continental climat…

In the seclusion of her private chamber, Elísabet stood in solemn silence, her gaze fixed upon the crackling flames dancing within the fireplace. The flickering light cast shadows upon her features, etching lines of weariness upon her brow as she stood, lost in reverie. Above it on the mantle was a photograph. Her father and brother smiled back at her from the captured moment, their absence causing a deep, sharp pain within her. Erik, her trusted assistant, entered with a quiet knock. He approached with measured steps, his eyes a mix of empathy and concern for his friend. Though she was now his sovereign, in a past life, they had run through town collecting bread fro…
