Nation A takes an active role in events outside of its border, and oh man, what borders! Nation A exists in the impassible, rocky Northlands. While known far and wide for the courage of both their peoples and ruling class, the concept of Nation A as a single community or culture is somewhat alien. Nation A sat on the sidelines for The Great War, securing protectorates and sending in support troops only for training purposes. This has made Nation A a powerful player in post war politics as they possess the neutrality to suggest changes and the power to back them up.
Despite a great number of economic assets, Nation B’s aggressive, determined drive to continue expanding has seen them ignore those opportunities. Nation B has impressive military honed by their victory in The Great War and supported from B-Keep, an impressive fortress structure to the West. However, their great drive for expansion has garnered them a wealthy, respected, and well-run nation, but garnered them no more land than any of their neighbors Most citizens are considered middle-class, Nation-B markets are prized for their quality goods and shrewd hagglers, and material wealth carefully managed from times now long forgotten. If the elitist rulers could ever change their dogma of constant expansion and facilitate these qualities, they would be the wealthiest nation in the area.
Nation C spent most of The Great War acting as a weapons supplier and getting rich off of it. Luckily, they supported the winning side and continue acting as a trade hub between kingdoms to this day. Despite their economic ties, history records them for the treachery of Diconsuior, where the founder of their line usurped an enemy’s lands through a blatant act of murder. Many in Nation D still call them traitors, though they appreciate the fruits of Nation C goods and arms too much to make an issue of it.
Only slightly younger than Nation B, Nation D is a powerful state with strict internal controls. They benefited most from The Great War, gaining an experienced navy and several new lands in the process. Nation D is known for its impartial class of Magistrates, who arbitrate disputes between citizens, as well as between different branches of the government.
Ultimately a minor player in The Great War, Nation E was the battleground for its first stages, years of considered stability and a focus on peace and prosperity with its borders saw it become a target for opportunistic enemies. Over the course of the war, Nation E gained back its losses, though the areas that saw the most fighting are still trying to fully recover.
