Seredena Nation (sair-eh-DEE-NAH)
Culture
The culture of Seredena can be described with the one word of "patriotism." Seredenans are taught to be committed to serving their nation at all costs. This does include mandatory conscription to the military and serving in it for at least 2 years. There is also, of course, the favoring of hardworking and efficient individuals. If you're contributing in any way, shape, or form to the country, you're doing well.
Assets
Seredena Nation is quite wealthy and that wealth translates to the assets it has. Their military, for example, consists of many soldiers and the inventory of weapons to arm said soldier is nothing to scoff at as well. Building materials are also plentiful for any possible land-expansions.
History
Seredena Nation was founded in the year 245 after a multitude of small villages and grouped up together to form a nation. As time went on, the small fledgling nation would overtake pieces of unclaimed land bit by bit. Small towns arose and the eventual creation of the capital city of Sordera City were grand achievements from this country that spawned from a collection of small villages.
However, Seredena's history has been forever tainted after a major incident that occurred in the year 350. A large group of powerful mages infiltrated the Holy Grail's spawning ritual and by using a large amount of powerful magic, the mages corrupted the Grail and sacrificed their lives to do so. Ever since then, many countries viewed the nation with great suspicion and only would do very limited trading with it. Hence why it hopes to win all Holy Grail wars that it is inducted into.
Territories
Seredena Nation, since the end of the Second Grail War, currently owns the northern half of Bukatelia. There, they demand 60% of the resources collected in that area. This includes things like food, ore, and occasional precious jewels.
Military
Bukatelia has a very strong military that not only has a lot of members, but a lot of weapons as well. Considering how all able-bodied citizens are required to complete military service, almost the entire nation is full of military reserves.
Foreign Relations
Seredena Nation's foreign relations are generally pretty sour all around. Many countries tend to have wary eyes on Seredena due to their victory in the Second Grail War along with the fact that the country started the Grail Wars at all. Bukatelia has by far the lowest view of the country, given the results of the Second Grail War and the fact that Seredena controls half of Bukatelia's territory.
Agriculture & Industry
The country focuses more on industry and production rather than agriculture. Although small towns and villages still have plenty of farms to provide sustenance for the country, the country likes to invest more resources in producing things like weapons, armor, tools, and wagons.
Education
While education in the country is pretty standard, one particular field of study that the country strives in is martial combat training. This can both taught in and out of school. Most people in the country know how to use a weapon with decent proficiency.
In the opposite spectrum, magic and mage-craft is rarely ever taught in even places like universities. Magic is highly regulated by the government ever since the event in 350. As such, wizards rarely ever exist here.
