Sorinian

The Sorinians are a humanoid race from Shaeral. They are the only democratic nation in Shaeral, with a direct democracy deciding their leader, known as the Minister. Sorinians deeply value their democracy, and believe that all peoples should be allowed the right to vote and a right for their voice to be heard. They are notably less xenophobic towards others outside of Sorinia, and often times are known to be fair and unbiased individuals. However, due to the nature of their society, Sorinians are also very likely to rebel against systems they see as unjust. Sorinia has already had three large scaled civil wars in its few hundred years of existence. However, these wars are not looked down upon, and rather, as a necessity to maintain a free and fair nation. Sorinians are fast to embrace new technology, and have already invested heavily into firearms, bombs, cannons, and other new, cutting edge technology.
