United States of Aurelia (Zeronet)

Great Power
Homeland: Including the geography, climate and location on the world's continents.
Government Type: Democracy, constitutional monarchy, lifelong appointment by the politburo? In this era, the significant thing to note is electoral cycle: how often do you have elections?
Ideological Landscape: What is the ideology of the country? Who rules the country is important, but who also is the opposition? Ideological division provides a flexibility that a political monoculture does not.
Majority: Who rules the country and by how much? Even countries that were 100% fascist in their governance were only 30%-60% fascist electorally.
Minor Ideologies: Who are the opposition, the third and fourth parties, the unassimilated, politically inactive minorities? Can anyone, or even a coalition, form a government come next election?

Serene Empire of Mizuho

Minor Power
A southern latitudes archipelago state.

Traits

  • Island State
So many islands.
  • Fish Monopoly
So many fish..
  • Water Monopoly
We also have a lot of fresh water, flowing down off the mountains.
  • The Woman's War
Mizuho's religion has always been the domain of priestesses and this has led to a culture far more egalitarian than most.
  • Worthless Yellow Rocks
It is said that the Rabbit in the Moon came from Mizuho.


  • Hostile Climate
While Mizuho's climate itself is quite amenable, the nation's myriad of islands tend to be extremely rugged and flat land suitable for large-scale construction is rather limited and often already built-upon.
  • Pieds Noir
The Collegium has long exerted influence over Mizuho. The reactionary old men in cahoots with them are still kicking.
  • Black Mark
This nuclear weapon was to be used against the Collegium's Hyundai Island and the massed fleet there. Unfortunately the bomber carrying it was shot down and the weapon exploded over the city of Pyonjeon, killing roughly 80,000 civilians. Oops.

The Sublime Yuhwan College of Nations including the Pious Common Kingship of the Hoopoe Forest and the Sanctified Tsintsar Crown of Yuhwasattva Vãduva

a.k.a. The Collegium, the Rzeczpospolita, or simply Gyerim-Covasna

Middle Power
Joseon dynasty Austria-Hungary

Traits

  • Great Patriotic War
Somehow, the Collegium lives still. What greater proof of miracles can there be?
  • Boondoggle
What do you mean the Great War is over...?
  • Unsinkable Aircraft Carrier
The Rzeczpospolita is obliged to protect many small fellow travelers in the light across the world.
  • Plurinational State x2
The Kingdoms of Gyerim and Covasna operate with considerable autonomy from the rest of the Collegium.
  • Where Have All the Men Gone?
"My grandfathers joke that if you took all the pieces of their bodies they lost in the Great War and put them together, you'd have a whole eunuch."
"Why a eunuch...?"
"Well I'm here, aren't I?"
  • The Woman's War
The realities of the Great War pushed at the open door of the highly egalitarian, even outright Matriarchal, culture of many nations in the Rzeczpospolita.
  • Free Haven
The women of the Collegium want fine men!
  • Brain Drain
Bright young women want to see what's going on in the rest of the world.
  • Woke Space Jesuits (Worthless Yellow Rocks)
If there are Gods and other nations unknown in the stars then the Yuhwa's Gospel must go to them, until all the heavens roll in compassion alike.
  • Cutthroat Politics
"Well it's complicated. Have you heard of the Norons and Sorons? It's a long story, but first, we must discuss parallel universes-"
  • Republican Tradition
"-Actually that's quite fine, that's all I needed to know really."
  • Nuclear Trauma
The Pyeonjeon Sarcophagus
  • The Sick Old Man
Lots of chronically underdeveloped villages. Good tourism value though!
