Outlining a factbook

 

Let's start with a basic structure to help you create a more in-depth story of your nation. This will help others better understand you, and will help you discover more details while writing. We recommend including (some of) the following elements.

1. Etymology - Where does your nation' name come from?
2. Geography - What does your nation look like?
3. History - How did your nation come to be?
4. Government - Who is in charge of your nation?
5. Military - How is your nation's safety ensured?
6. Economy - How do your citizens earn their income?
7. Demographics - More details about your citizens
8. Culture - What do your people like doing?

Thanks Suv for building that index of factbooks. I can set these subforums so it is sorted alphabetically by name of the original submitter. That would avoid having to do any upkeep.

As for active vs inactive nations, I was thinking of just pinning the currently remaining ones, and letting everything else fill out underneath. All of this is, of course, open to discussion.

For rules: what did you have in mind?

[Jilderen]

*ahem*

Jilderen is an Arch Duchy nowadays...

*ahem*

Jilderen is an Arch Duchy nowadays...

When I wrote this earlier today you didn't exist. Also, don't you mean archduchy? The words aren't separate.

I've gone and added an iframe to the top of this forum, to capture all information that is now still hidden in separate threads. I have shared access with Suverina, and can do this for everyone else who wants to help out.

Added a diplomacy grid in the second tab. If this information is incorrect, please PM me your email address and I will add you. This way you can maintain the correct status yourself.
