### Debut

Volume 4: Noreaga’s Dungeon

The **Kingdom of Poland**, simply known as **Poland** is a Kingdom located in Central Europe. It is an Absolute Monarchy led by Queen Anne Asatru of Poland, Head of the ethnically Danish Asatru Royal Family. The capital is Warsaw, and the nation’s regions are made up of several duchies under the rule of the Monarch.

Poland is one of the many nations in Europe that are resistant to the revolutionary reforms of the east in the Soviet Union, and as such it has a fierce anti-communist and even racist sentiment towards those not of Nordic Aryan descent. Though these views are not publicly expressed, the nobility has deep-rooted nordicist views that even apply for the Polish people, who themselves are viewed as inferior by their Leadership.

## Flag and Emblem

The national flag of the Kingdom of Poland consists of two horizontal stripes of equal width, the upper one white and the lower one red. De facto, a variant of the flag with the national coat of arms in the middle is used as the state flag to represent the Polish monarchy.

The coat of arms of Poland is a white, crowned eagle with a golden beak and talons, on a red background. The emblem is also used to represent the Polish monarchy and the House of Asatru.

## Geography

Poland is located in Central Europe. It extends across the North European plain from the Sudetenland and Carpathian Mountains in the south to the Baltic Sea in the north. The territory of Poland covers approximately 312,696 km2 (120,733 sq mi), of which 98.52% is land and 1.48% is water. The Polish coastline is estimated at 770 km (478 mi) in length. Poland is mostly diverse in its land, however most of the central terrain is flat, which allows for agricultural production (the main base of Poland’s economy).

Its geographic locations borders the USSR through 4 of its republics (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Lithuania) and as such it is forced to interact with it frequently, regardless of its will. Poland’s geographic location makes them a direct target for the Soviets and their plans to further expand the USSR’s control beyond its borders.

## Politics

Poland is an absolute monarchy which is centred around the Monarch, who can have total control over his power and acts. However, the Monarch largely relies on advisors such as Princes, Dukes and Ministers and decision-making and political matters. As a result, government and high noble positions can be quite influential and hold great power. In the case of Queen Anne, she herself is not a risk-taker who makes drastic decisions, but it’s mostly indecisive and quarrels with his brother, Franz, on how a topic should be dealt with. Though Anne is an absolute monarch, she mostly relies on the high cabinet of her government to act and make decisions.

Apart from their governmental politics, the Polish leadership is also very racist, and often expresses views of Nordic supremacy (hence their Danish heritage). Anyone who is not an "Aryan”, including the Poles, is looked down upon by the high Polish nobility, mainly Anne (secretly) and Franz. Despite their personal views however, this racism is not expressed publicly to the Polish people and is kept within the closed doors of the palace. Furthermore, Poland is also one of the many nations in Europe which are resistant to the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, and as such they are fiercely anti-communist despite the willingness Anne shows for negotiations and diplomacy (unlike Franz, who instead proposes genocide).
