Kingdom of Gendarania

Welcome to Gendarania!

The **Royal Progressive State of Gendarania** (more commonly known as the **Kingdom of Gendarania** or just **Gendarania**) was a self declared sovereign state (best classified as a micronation) located in Gilbert, Arizona that was formed in 2019 until it was absorbed and dissolved by the Empire of Kyberia of the same year. But when the apocalypse came, it was reborn in early October of 2020. Now it resides on a long stretch in South Columbus.

## History

Back on May 28th of 2019, the micronation known as Kingdom of Gendarania was a passion project/political experiment created by it's sovereign, Charles Ross. But it was later taken over by the Empire of Kyberia on November 5th of 2019. Yet when the apocalypse came, it was brought back by its original founders in Arizona as a haven in Gilbert as it broke away from the Empire of Kyberia yet often get into fights and quarrels with Onderon, a colony of the Empire of Kyberia. It is mostly over ideals on how to govern Gilbert with fights with the mayor and the police of Gilbert. Everyone was on edge until a peace agreement was achieved in the 10th of October.

But then when the second phase came, everything changed. The United Nation States of America came down with troops that transferred many people to a new home with some going willingly, some choose to stay in the new California Republic, while others got gun downed when refusing to back down. So, Kings Charles I and a few of his followers made their way to the planet, Usonia. However, they've been put in a middle of a desert with only a few ponds that provide water. Luckily they kept much of the equipment needed to survive in such a place and had communicators that allow them to call for help. Some species that specialize in deserts such as Twi'leks from Star Wars and the Burnt from Valiant along with fantasy races such as Djinn.

The Kingdom later spread out and became a long yet narrow nation that stretches between the Confederate States of Usonia to the east all the way to the Mojave Coalition to the west. It became a huge nation yet with a small population mostly due to the environment. It later became part of the Independence League in order to be part of the larger galaxy.

## Geography

The geography of the Kingdom of Gendarania is mostly deserts and mountains yet thanks to some trade from the Mojave Coalition, they turned many parts of their desert environment into fertile, arable land with forests and farms. There are some areas where there are cacti growing in abundance alongside some desert plants. Where there are these plants, there is a great deal of water sources as there are underground rivers and plenty of reservoirs. To the east, there are a lot of mountain ranges that separate both Gendarania and the CSU.

## Economy

The Kingdom Gendarania has the highest oil export on the planet, Usonia. They take as much oil as they could down to the last drop along with natural gases in order to turn the desert into farmland and water reservoirs later, which could take years. Although, they do trade them for other resources that are difficult in their land such as food, lumber, technology and other such materials necessary.

Moisture farming is a necessity in the Kingdom of Gendarania as there are areas where there isn't any underground water sources. They use them for irrigating underground farms and to keep themselves hydrated. Water reclamation is also important in the hot desert that are made from starship water reprocessors that reprocessed waste water by filtering and purifying it, including water lost to evaporation. After several treatments, the water would develop a bland and tasteless flavor. So, most of it is used in farming as the waste water from toilets are used to make fertilizer after many chemicals have been removed.

Railway trading is important to the Kingdom of Gendarania's economy as there are railroads that cross the country that deliver goods and supplies to other nations which is cheaper than using aircraft. But there is a fee for using their railroads to trade which boost the kingdom's economy.

Solar energy is a major industry in Gendarania as an automated corporation, Solarius Energy, that supply almost all the power necessary for all settlements. Wind energy is also play a large part in powering settlements since there are a few places with high winds. Geothermal and thermal energy can generate enough power to power a city like New York City long as there is enough heat.

## Society & Culture

The culture of the Kingdom of Gendarania is largely inspired by the American south west and British culture. Many rural parts are similar to the American Wild West with some elements similar to the Twi'lek culture and some of the Burnt. There are some other cultures thrown in such as Arabian that is created by the Djinn, some Jawas that brought in their sand crawlers that exchange scrap that have been illegally dumped from orbit, and some cultures of various desert elves. The cities have Victorian-style architecture with some Arabian influences thrown in. In the mountain cities, there are plenty of dwarves.

People like to live in small niches and tiny communities when out in the deserts. Although some people live in larger groups in dwarven mountain cities to escape from the heat and scorching winds of the desert.

## Military

The **Gendaranian Military** is the main military force in the Kingdom of Gendarania. It is relatively small with only a small handful of people that enlisted. The vast majority of it is mostly comprised of automatons such as droids and clockwork golems along with a few summoned creatures such as elementals. The military is divided into three branches; army, air force, and space force. There is no navy because the nation is landlocked.

The ships of the space force are strangely in the shape of brass lamps with some are from Star Wars.
