Selvaguen

Selvaguen is a Gerualdi Union-affiliated country located in western Sualtorre, bordering Camanni, Biinghia, Boscuro, and Rryffystyd. In addition to its strong military presence, the Gerualdi Union has numerous little-known officials throughout the country with a great deal of power and sway within the nation, but little outside of it. As a result, locals have the on-the-nose joke of "Atraccia, genittorzza fel io": "Be careful, my father is listening." In essence, even the most unassuming of individuals, especially troublemakers, are often related to someone notable within Selvaguen. It is said that while corruption is isolated to those with power and within the upper echelons of other countries, in Selvaguen, virtually anyone could conceivably know someone that can bail them out of trouble. "Equal-opportunity corruption" is a common phrase uttered by Selvaguen's neighbors.
With the strong emphasis on networking and knowing people, it is unsurprising that Selvaguen's culture orients around social get-togethers where the purpose is making connections outside family. When one's boss invites employees to go drinking after work, it'd be social suicide to not attend, as people who are absent will be missing out on an opportunity to improve their social network not just with their boss, but with their fellow employees who might be useful later on. It is an open secret that most people are looking for self-gain by entertaining higher-status or people who have social leverage that they need -- however, authenticity is a necessity as well, because no one will do a favor for someone who just went through the motions.
