Gelasia
The Gelasians are masters of the swamp, having tamed the various animals that have lived there, studied the dangerous plants and fought tooth and nail to tame the land they call home. Now, the very lands that they had once struggled to tame is their greatest defense, massive spans of difficult terrain, methods of hunting that only Gelasians know and the many toxic plants.
Unlike other lands, it's uncommon to find smaller settlements, the lands too hostile for such things, instead they congregate to large cities where numbers mean protection. There they form smaller satellite towns close to these larger ones, so that in times of need they may be quick to gain their protection.
Structure
Public Agenda
To reclaim the farm lands that rightfully belong to Gelasia from @Irasia.
Assets
While Gelasia is an inhospitable land, the Gelsaians have become well versed in taming it, using the rough terrain, various dangerous animals and plant life to their advantage,
History
Having originally split from Irasia, Gelasia has had a few internal conflicts during times of peace to try and overthrow the throne, and while it's rulers have changed surnames over the years, Gelasia has always held a singular sense of nationality.
Demography and Population
While a majority of the population is human, over time more and more swamp inhabitants have joined the Gelasians as subjects, the most notable of which are the frog people that had first called these lands home. While in the past the two people were enemies, they work together towards a singular goal of erradicating the Irasian people.
Military
The Gelasian Military is famous for it's lack of definitive formations or tactics. As there is no stable ground that's suitable for large scale combat, Gelasians are accustomed to small scale battles
Religion
Foreign Relations
While having been at constant war with Gelasia, they are more peacful neighbors with the Elves of Szetia, who after thousands of years of war eventually managed to find common ground in a trade agreement.
Agriculture & Industry
Gelasians take advantage of the large amount of water that surrounds them, and while it may mean that they can't grow crops like other civilizations, they are master fishermen, wonderful at harvesting medicinal herbs that grow in their swamps and grow the special tree that provides the long lasting firewood called timberwood.
Trade & Transport
Most Gelasians don't have the required funds for them, but it isn't uncommon to see boats or large toads as a form of transportation.
