Kingdom of Norvania
Culture
Norvanian culture is heavily revolved around strength, vigilance, and hard work. This is mainly due to the fact that Norvania's northern location and brutal winters make it so that only the strong and brave may be able to properly live.
Assets
Norvania's assets are very well-stocked. Soldiers are always at the ready, fortifications are ready to defend attackers, and weapons are everywhere.
History
Norvania was founded in the year 100 after multiple large tribes of people formed a treaty of unionization to establish a true country. The treaty of unionization was fully established in the year 90 and it took 10 years for the full country, including the capital, to be fully built.
For over two centuries, Norvania remained in relative peace. They did limited trading with other nations, but for the most part, foreign relations were generally stable for the country. And then the year 350 came. The Holy Grail was corrupted by Seredenan mages and the Kingdom of Norvania was one of the first countries to be inducted. The king, not willing to back down from a challenge, raised a massive armada of Grail Warriors to have them fight Seredena and Gillsburg for the Holy Grail. Three months went by and Norvania's day of glory came as they secured victory and the Holy Grail. The main wish was used by the Norvanian king to annex northern Seredena, as the area had useful iron deposits. The kingdom also forced the Gillsburg Republic to pay a heavy tribute.
150 years have passed and Norvania has, once again, been inducted into the 4th Holy Grail War. Their opponents are Seredena Nation, Haroshika Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Bukatelia. Their representative servants are the legendary warlords Krugov Khan and Lü Bu. Norvania has now set their sites to conquer the east of Haroshika.
Demography and Population
The population of Norvania is quite large, given how the country started off as a union of several large tribes. The current population count is over a million. 50% of the population live in the capital of Varlandos City and the other 50% live in smaller towns and villages.
Military
Norvania has one of the strongest militaries on Darnolia. While not every single citizen is a soldier, almost all of them have some amount of martial training. As such, the power of the militia is quite strong with the country. Militia and mercenary groups are seen in a much greater light in Norvania than in other countries.
Foreign Relations
As of recent, Norvania has some not-so-friendly foreign relations. Seredena Nation's northern half is annexed by Norvania, which has caused both country's people to be not-so-fond of each other. Gillsburg doesn't have as bad of a relation with Norvania, as the tribute payment was only done once and the trade deal that was established has been evening out as of recent.
Agriculture & Industry
Agriculture is difficult but doable in Norvania. Every single farm and farmer must follow a very strict schedule of when to begin planting and when to begin harvesting. A few days of no work can cause food shortages as the brutal winters destroy any sort of crop that may be trying to grow.
As with industry, Norvania isn't exactly all that up to date. Products are still made with mostly traditional methods and advanced forms of production/products really only come in with the already limited trades that Norvania has.
