Scale of Power

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Extreme

The strongest of all the kingdoms and nations, the Lion Kingdom is a massive military and economic power, controlling a large portion of the universe. The kingdom is a heavily militaristic and violent place, extremely wealthy but that wealth is poorly distributed, with countless human, woodpeople, carpeople, and dragon low-wage, poorly treated workers toiling for the Space creatures' benefit. It is a very diverse nation with trillions of planets and species in its dominion. The Lion Kingdom is the origin of many of the universe's greatest inventions and innovations, as well as being the home of the legendary Builder Industries and the most fearsome rulers in history, including Cecil and the near-forgotten Liony the Zeroth.

### Economic Power

Extreme

The Bear Empire became the Lion Kingdom's biggest contender after the destruction of the Dino Kingdom, however, it has since allied with the Lion Kingdom—but that competitive rivalry is still there. It is a large but fairly peaceful place, considering that the majority species in the empire is the Space creatures. The empire's wealth is, like the Lion Kingdom's, poorly distributed, although recently that has begun to change as more and more of its citizens pay attention to the complaints of humans and the like. Though its military is nowhere near as impressive as that of the Lion Kingdom, the Bear Empire's economic and industrial might is enough to rival that of its adversary.

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Moderate

The Kangaroo Kingdom is the most opportunistic of the nations, snatching up the territory left behind by the Dino Kindom's destruction as quickly as they could. The Kangaroo Kingdom is always trying to outwit its opponents, as sheer military might would never be enough against the invincible Lion Kingdom or the heavily industrialized Bear Empire. The Kangaroo Kingdom has forged an alliance with the Indo-Beaver Nation: two (relatively) tiny nations struggling to survive amidst the three superpowers—two, now that the Dino Kingdom has been eliminated.

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Moderate

The Indo-Beaver Nation is best known for its technocratic council which constantly encourages bigger, better things to improve the quality of life of its citizens and also to improve its chances against the two superpowers. For this reason the Indo-Beaver Nation is the most technologically advanced country in the universe, and it intends to keep it that way, with its most advanced and precious inventions classified as heavily guarded state secrets. The Indo-Beaver Nation is also known for its surprising equality of wealth and happiness, with almost all of its human, woodpeople, carpeople, and dragon population reporting that they are "happy" or only "halfway dead," as opposed to "almost dead" in most of the other countries.

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Powerful

After the fall of the Dino Kingdom, the Shark Kingdom became widely regarded as the third superpower. Although its power is nowhere near that of either the Lion Kingdom or the Bear Empire, the Shark Kingdom is the closest thing to them compared to the other kingdoms. The Shark Kingdom is best known for being the most aqua-friendly of the kingdoms, with entire underwater cities and flooded buildings to suit aquatic Space creatures. Its human, woodpeople, carpeople and dragon population are also suitably catered to and their happiness is almost equal to that of the Indo-Beaver Nation's non-Space creature population.

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Moderate

The Hawk Republic is notable for being the most democratic of all the countries in the universe, as it is the only one without a monarch. Even though some of the kingdoms are constitutional monarchies, the Hawk Republic is an actual democratic constitutional republic. The Hawk Republic, being a federal republic, is made up of 149 states which have their own governors and elect representatives to participate in the Republic's senate. The Republic elects a new president every three billion years, and humans, woodpeople, carpeople, and dragons are allowed representation in the senate although their political power is much more limited than that of the Space creature senators. The Hawk Republic is a fairly powerful industrial economic power but has a small (yet capable) military. Currently, there is a petition to rename the Hawk Republic because people feel it does not accurately reflect the Republic's population.

## Basic Info

### Economic Power

Powerful (formerly)

Once the second most powerful of the three superpowers, the Dino Kingdom and Lion Kingdom fought a subtle war over control and power for a *really* long time, though officially they were allies. The royal families of each kingdom visited the other on numerous occasions. The Dino Kingdom was a powerful nation, actually standing a chance against the Lion Kingdom if it came to all-out war. Yet all that came to an end when a mysterious rip in the fabric of existence itself destroyed most of the kingdom. The few survivors fled to the surrounding nations, with King Rexy and his closest friends fleeing all the way to Liony's palace in the Lion Kingdom. Now, all that's left of the Dino Kingdom has either been taken over by the Kangaroo Kingdom or is uninhabitable, dotted with the ruins of once-great cities.

The destruction of the Dino Kingdom was so catastrophic, and it changed the political landscape so much, that a new timekeeping era was invented to mark the time after the event.

## Basic Info

### Business

Produces the highest-quality vehicles, weaponry, armor, and structures

### Biggest Rival

None, who could compete against the Builders?

The legendary Builder Industries is rumored to predate the kingdoms, and has been around for longer than anyone remembers. Shrouded in mystery, the ancient Builders have been dormant for many years. Their last act while the company—which is quite possibly another civilization entirely—was still active was to renovate the Core Palace, making it even more splendid and glorious. Then the Temple of the Makers (alternatively known more simply as the Starforge Temple), the Builder's headquarters, went dark forever. Builder Industries has constructed most of the universe's most famous and legendary things, from the Lion Kingdom's fearsome battlecruisers to the Indo-Beaver Nation's entire capital planet. It is even rumored that they built the entire Hivenest—and, of course, they built the Star Forges, the colossal structures that produced materials of incredible quality. But of course, that's all in the past. Now, the Star Forges are silent and the Builders are dormant. Either that, or they're dead.

## Basic Info

### Business

Steals from Li'l Bear Inc. and other companies and sells their products to shadowy organizations on the black market

### Biggest Rival

Li'l Bear Inc.

M.A.R.S. Industries started as a shadowy, semi-legal, mostly illegal corporation that sold stolen Li'l Bear Inc. products to other shadowy, semi-legal organizations. They acquired a fortune in this way and eventually came to the attention of the public when an Imperial Police officer accidentally wandered into a M.A.R.S. Industries warehouse and the employees there confused her for a customer and attempted to sell illegally acquired Li'lpads to her, at which point she started shooting everybody. Ever since then the Lion Kingdom has tried to stop M.A.R.S. Industries, only to be thwarted again and again. At least the company's profits have lowered, though. It's kind of sad how obsessively the Lion Kingdom chases after them, and they can't even attack the company's headquarters because the location of Marrz is secret.

## Basic Info

### Business

Produces high-tech products, especially digital software and advanced computers

### Biggest Rival

M.A.R.S. Industries

Li'l Bear Inc. is the biggest company in the entire universe, excluding Builder Industries, and the backbone of the Lion Kingdom. Fortunately, the company's founder and CEO is friends with Liony, or else he might use his immense influence and economic power to control the kingdom. The company supplies most of the Lion Kingdom population with high-quality products that are only slightly overpriced. The company is also renowned for greatly advancing the AI industry and treating its human workforce relatively nicely.

## Basic Info

### Biggest Rival

None, it's a complete monopoly

Before the Dino Kingdom's sudden destruction, Steggy Inc. controlled the entire agriculture industry. It took heavy losses with the fall of the Dino Kingdom, with most of its higher-ups dying and its headquarter being destroyed, as well as the chaos that reigned when the company's employees assumed their CEO had been killed in the disaster like so many others. After Steggy came back and took control again, she started repairing her company and though it took her a few years she managed to destroy her opponents and Steggy Inc. once again controls the entire agriculture district, feeding all 6 countries. Something which they aren't happy about, except for the Lion Kingdom, because Liony is friends with Steggy.
