Kunisdom of Grivisia

Coat of Arms

**Grivisia,** officially known as the **Kunisdom of Grivisia** (Enginian:  *; Küniisktää Griiviisäämii*) is a country located in west Grega. The kingdom is governed by several rutinions, constituent monarchical administrative regions governed by a Rütiin, a local monarch subservient to the Küniis, the title of the the nation's federal monarch. Territories not governed by a Rütiin are given the label of province and are ruled by a Provincial Governor, who must seek direct approval from the Küniis in order to pass provincial legislation.

## Etymology

Following the dissolution of the Enginian Empire, the Enginian government declared the remains of the empire be renamed after the ruling Grívís Dynasty in order to distinguish itself from the newly created Kunisdom of Langlamia, named after the Langlite Uprising, which was in turn named after their leader, Fiinääs Läänglii.

While the Enginian Empire retained its name in the Enginian Civil War, it was replaced in favor of the Kingdom of Grivisia as the name was deemed unfit for a country that no longer unified all Enginians under a single banner.

## Politics

### Political System

Grivisia is a federal monarchy ruled by the Grivisian Küniis (Standard Enginian word for "Emperor"), a position which is inherited by the Rütiin of Bagren.

### Rutinions

The kingdom is formed from several rutinions ruled by the region's Rütiin (the provincial monarch of the region) that answer to the Küniis. The governing families of the rutinions were the ruling families of the territories that entered into the West Enginian Confederation, which eventually united all of the Enginian states into the Enginian Empire. Because the royal family of the Rutinion of Bagren is the family of the Küniis, the position of Rütiin of Bagren is instead given to the monarch's heir, or appointed by the monarch in the case that they lack an heir or the heir is not yet of age.

### Halminions

Regions of Grivisia not governed by a Rütiin are instead granted the title of halminion, and are governed by a Häälmiin (provincial governor of a territory). The Häälmiin is appointed by the Küniis directly, although candidates may run for the position or be nominated by a Rütiin.

### Passing of Legislation

While the Küniis is the highest position in the kingdom, in order to pass legislation the Küniis must win the support of at least three rutinions. Each rutinion gets one vote while the Küniis has two. Halminions do not get any vote in the passing of legislation.

## Political Issues

### Ethnic Reunification

Grivisia used to be the political and cultural capital of the Enginian Empire, with many modern Grivisians believing the throne is the rightful heir to the kingdom and should seek to reclaim the nation's territory. Contrary to the desires of many, the throne remains idle, seeking to maintain current Grivisian borders so as to not be considered a threat by outside governments. This inaction has angered less extreme Grivisians who seek Enginian unification with their Langlamian brethren. Talk has been spreading that a new government should take control of governing, and that the throne should instead be held as a ceremonial position.

### Frustrations With The Monarchy

Due to the inaction of the Küniis to work towards Enginian unification, many Grivisians have become frustrated with the monarchy, with many demanding a prime minister to be appointed, with a very small portion of the population demanding the dismantlement of the monarchy as a whole.

### The Greencoat Party

The Greencoats are a political party gaining traction in within the kingdom. The Greencoats advocate for the reduction of the monarchy to a purely ceremonial position and for the country to be run by members of the party, which consists of members from various parts of the political spectrum. To avoid political division, the party seeks to establish a factionless system of government, banning the establishment of political factions in favor of allowing high-ranking party members to propose and vote for new legislation.

## Military

### Army

Grivisia boasts a large military, largely consisting of tanks and cavalry.

## Foreign Relations

### Andradian Empire

Grivo-Andradian relations have been extremely poor since the Andradians attempted to colonize the Enginians in 1509. Furthermore, during the Andradian Invasion of Bichem in 2149 the Grivisians provided support for the Bichemese resistance in the form of manpower and supplies.

### Kormanium of Central Alda

The majority of the Bichemese population think very positively of the Grivisians due to both parties having very poor opinions of the Andradian Empire. Following the Andradian Invasion of Bichem in 2149, when the Andradian Empire invaded the Merredom of Bichem and established a provisional government in the region, the reigning monarch, Kira II of House Doirenez, was given refuge by Küniis Níklää I at the request of cavalry officer Mäksim Käminsk.

### Kunisdom of Langlamia

Despite the disagreement over the rightful Küniis of the Enginian peoples, many Grivisians seek unification with their Langlamian siblings, with many willing to settle for a dual monarchy.

## Demographics

### Language

While the official language of Grivisia is Standard Enginian, each rutinion is permitted to recognize their local languages as their official language alongside Standard Enginian.

### Ethnic Groups

Grivisia is populated primarily by various West Enginian ethnicities such as Atrelans, Bagrenians, Morians, Kasamese, Kulisians, and Suomites. Other minorities include Salodamian, Nammaki, and Cavalian populations along their respective borders.

### Religion

Lamiarchism is the official state religion, with the popularity of specific deities varying in different regions of the nation.

### Gender

While the majority of Grivisians identify with their birth gender, gender minorities are generally accepted within the nation.

### Sexuality

The majority of Grivisians are heterosexual, with merely 13.4% of the population openly identifying as other sexualities. While Grivisians are generally accepting of non-heterosexual identities, polygamy and polyamory are heavily frowned upon by modern Grivisians.

## Culture

### Fashion and Clothing

Modern Grivisian fashion primarily draws inspiration from Grivisian military uniforms, with man, woman, and other gender minorities donning dress shirts and sweaters underneath their elongated suit jackets that extend above the knees, belts around their waists, pants tucked into boots that extend just below the knee, gloves, and a side cap.
