Usonians

The **Usonians** are the descendants of the peoples of the United States who were scattered across the Milky Way.

## History

The two American civilisations, the American Remnant, and the American Federation, launched many expeditions to colonise other planets after the advent of FTL travel and stronger spacecraft. In doing so, the Second Civil War was carried over into space.

The two Americas then descended into a great war that led to their own demise, ruining half of the American colonies. Knowing this, a third of all surviving colonies formed their own alliances. They referred themselves as "Usonians" to declare their independence from the two Americas. The other thirds who still served the now-defunct American empires became the Amecons and the Amelios, both of which are as hostile towards the Usonians as they are to each other.

The Amecons are the descendants of the American Federation, carrying over their militaristic and conservative views to their space colonies. The Amelios are the descendants of the American Remnant, who seek either to escape the war in their broken homeland or to spread leftism into the Milky Way. If any of the two seeks peace instead of war, they will be rejected by both sides, but they may be welcomed by the Usonian Alliance.

Fascism is seen as an abomination to all Usonians, due to it being seen as the cause of the Second Civil War and the destructive insanity that followed it. Likewise, various forms of authoritarianism and even some aspects of pre-War American society (like Internet trolling, sociopathy, hatred of the poor, racism and bigotry, teenage bullying, "cancel culture", political polarisation *caused* by nationalist extremism, ultranationalism, "thoughts and prayers", and whataboutism) are now abhorred by the Usonian peoples, who seek to break away from the destructive attitudes of their ancestors.

The 21st century is seen in Usonian history records as a time of utter chaos and madness, like in many parts of the Milky Way.

Zostrana

The **Kingdom of Zostrana** is a fictional nation of magicians, where *anything* is possible. Its exact details vary between the authors that use this nation in their works, even within different works by the same author.

## Flag

The flag of the **Kingdom of Zostrana** is a blue banner with a red stripe and question mark. The red stripe represents existence, the question mark for curiosity, and the blue background symbolises endless possibilities.

## Geography

Zostrana can be either tropical, desert, or boreal, in spite of it located near the Equator. It is usually placed anywhere in the western hemisphere to the east or south of the continent of Laron.

Zostrana is either an archipelago, a larger mountainous island with surrounding isles, or a peninsula southeast of Darania (making it a scattered league of colonies)

## Government

Zostrana is either a monarchy or ruled by a council of magicians.

## Diplomacy

Zostrana has a friendly rivalry with Kogdoza, a related race of mutants who specialise in time manipulation.

## Military

Zostrana can be either medieval or medieval with advanced technology: regardless, their technology utilises a mixture of crude machinery, flintlocks, clockwork, laser grids, and magic to strengthen their damage.

## Demographics

Zostrana's people can either be blond Darroskei humans, ditto with the blood of sea-wights in their veins, pink-haired Ontemazei who happen to practice a Slavonian culture, jolly bean-grinned elves, or a race of blond fairies who utilise modern technology. Regardless of their origins, they will fiercely protect their homeland from any perceived invader. In spite of this, they are friendly with foreigners because they love to learn.

All Zostranians are born with the ability to use magic, drawing their powers from either the Void, other dimensions, or directly from the Gods. With training, they fashion their magic to several specific forms, such as fire blasts, invisibility, or plant manipulation. This may suggest that Zostranians are a race of mutants or hybrids with Celestial descent.

## Trivia

* Zostrana may be inspired by Glubbdrubdribb from Gulliver's Travels, the Thousand Sons chapter of Chaos Marines from Warhammer 40,000, or the Kingdom of Mewni from Star vs. the Forces of Evil.
	+ The Zostranian people are a little weird and a little wild.
	+ Zostrana is "anyone and no-one".

Vūrezoi Empire

The **Vurezoi Empire** was one of three empires that battled for domination of the Galaxy during the Jauparturnid Era; the others being the Vozonid Empire and the Cyan Senate.

## Flag

The flag of the Vūrezoi Empire consists of an orange banner with two white bands and a white rectangle: the orange background symbolises the campaign to "instill order" (or conquer) the galaxy, and the white objects symbolise progress as they resemble blips on computer screens.

## History

The Vūrezoi Empire was one of three competing galactic powers during the Jaupartūrnid Dynasty's waning century, the other being the Vozonids and the Cyan Senate. Its founders claimed to be the descendants of the Konjor Supercorporation's reformists, who sought to reestablish their Supercorporation against its Cyan Senate counterpart.

While the Vozonids had military might and fanaticism, and the Cyan Senate had the advantage in technology (to the point that its final President, Skavazan, was an immortal sustained by an artifically-produced elixir), the Vūrezoi were better at having more individual freedoms than its rivals. Yet in spite of this, many galactic societies refused to align themselves with the Vūrezoi and their Emperor Ullejeman either, for they preferred to remain independent rather than spend much resources to sustain the Vūrezoi Emperor's extravagant lifestyle.

After its Emperor suffered from a bizarre nightmare, the Vūrezoi Empire turned towards defense from its rivals and *especially* the relentless assaults of the rising Ontemazei Empire and its allies. Of the three (or four) powers of the Jaupartūrnid Dynasty's era, the Vūrezoi were the last to fall, eventually being supplanted by a more competent dynasty that isolated their shrinking realm from the chaos that arose after the Ontemazei Empire's divisive cruelty plunged galactic civilisation into a long, dark age.
Travis

**Travis Orlemburg** is a young pink-hair from Bigton.

## Appearance

Travis is an ethnic Rinnarit-Italian man with the usual brown skin, but his pink-hair ancestry gives him his characteristic cotton-candy hair and his blue eyes.

He tends to wear a T-shirt with trousers.

## Personality

Travis is active and considerate.

He likes jogging, boxing, and stretching.

He does not like being compared to a demon just because of his odd hair and his partial Roman ancestry.

## Relationships

His friends include Truman, Alexander, and Zelxon: Truman likes soccer, Alex likes basketball, and Zelxon is a fan of polo.

He is in love with another pink-haired Rinnarit: Minerva. She loves him back because he helped her recover after several bullies lit her hair on fire.

## Abilities

As a pink-haired mutant, his wounds can heal faster.

## Trivia

* Travis was inspired by the character of the same name from Hamtaro and Bubble Berry.
* Travis has partial Italian ancestry. For that reason, some of his friends made him wear demonic centurion's armor for Halloween, to make fun of his ancestry. He can get angry when people call him "diabolus" or "devil" because he is part-Italian.

### Non-canon (LOL)

* Travis once had a duel with Theodosius and William, two boys from several centuries later. In the duel, Travis was clad in demonic centurion armour, while his opponents were dressed as angels.
Zvaino Postal Service

The **Zvaino Postal Service** (Josolchir: Zvainō Laubadil Krōnezaz, ZLK) is a delivery company hailing from the Republic of Josol.

Aside from its headquarters at western Josol near the Vozonid/Azgovian border, its secondary headquarters is located at Siangwaan. It has become so popular and commonplace that it (or a parody of it) and its yellow-blue flying trucks became a staple part of local scenes.

## Name

The company's name is derived from the Josolchir words for "star" (zvaisja) and "war" (noghō), perhaps alluding to some ancient alien invasion commemorated and mocked dearly at the day of its founding, such as the Uorimon Festival held at every November. In some countries, it is known as "*Uttara-rastarko!*" ("Best Gift!"), after one of its slogans.

* Heronoi: Tagomebane Zawainó
* Kjongkjong: A'atmečar Siwanijo

## Slogan

**Josolchir**: Qenjo-mal muntiso mjokh pel čepar maiča-mon. *Čei uttara-rastarko!*

-- Zvainō Laubadil Krōnezaz (ZLK)

**Siangwaanian**: Chēnglai yē-mē mok-yā, chín yē lamʟdaak touʟ. *Gàngéng wōk sāngngei!*

-- Zvainō Baanʟchēng Shēung (ZBSh)

**Bujanski**: Prinositjos kov tovary, dō go bero akh ždatǐ. Eta kharošoi podarky!

-- Zvainō Posylnaja Služǐba (ZPS)

**English**: Delivering your goods before you'll expect them. *The best of any gift!*

-- Zvainō Postal Service (ZPS)

## Trivia

* The Zvaino Postal Service was possibly inspired by DHL and FedEx. Its name was possibly inspired by a translation of the name "Starco" ("star" + "Marco" (war)).

Zemasor

**Zemasor** Raizōnizo Jaupartūžo was the penultimate emperor of the Jauparturnid Dynasty.

## Appearance

In the prime of his life, Zemasor was muscular and tall. He also had a long, black beard.

## History

Zemasor wanted perfection in every aspect of his life, to the extent that he attacked his classmates for crying too loudly or behaving in an erratic manner.

When he became Emperor, he made his empire more militaristic, to cater to his people's demands for revenge against the Cyan Senate. He also began a campaign to purge his whole empire of anyone suspected of having a disorder, by putting them either to slavery or death, to force his own people to become obedient soldiers.

As his perfectionist policies drove many of his subjects to suicide or mass murder, he also prepared armies of clones to replace his people.

Zemasor and his eldest son, Crown Prince Mandituro, were killed in battle.

## Personality

Zemasor was ruthless, seeking to achieve total perfection and power by any means necessary, even with the destruction of millions of subjects and foreigners.

## Trivia

* To celebrate a birthday, friends give white horses to a person. Because actual horses are more costly, wooden or plush horses are often used. Nonetheless, people bring live horses to their friends to annoy them.
* In earlier drafts before the 2020s, the Vovtarlan calendar's months were named after Ontemazei goddesses, the local version of the Sixteen Goddesses. On August 2023, the author thought that it did not make sense for the Vovtarlans to continue using names from a historical invader as an independent nation, so he created new names.

Some reinforcements were from Zvestarid exiles who were sheltered in Sevraeja.

Various free Wonao nations and the Kingdom of Hiriwa were also involved in the war to liberate Bujan, as they were also members of the Zvestarid Coalition.

Pinoguni and Ragise sent soldiers and weaponry to aid the Coalition and revolutionaries.

Telarkha

**Telarkha** was a princess of Aute.

## History

When she was younger, she sometimes visited the hunter Tlukhan in the westerly kingdom of Khletirol to hear his stories. She was sad when she found out that he never returned.

Telarkha got magical powers from her lunar goddess, Luinda. With her magical powers, she fought against more Celestials who enslaved Pelgir.

## Relationships

She is a good friend of Winjari, a princess from Assuwas.
Walkorudur

**Walkorudur**, formerly Laksedroth, is a large city at what is now northern Rabydos. It is west of New Assuwas and north of Prumthesan and Aute.

## History

It is a large city built by the Pelgir kingdoms deep within the Black Mountain. At some point of its history, it became a tributary state of the Kingdom of Assuwas, and continued being loyal to Assuwas even while its emperor was killed by the Ente-Ruri machines. However, they also helped the native peoples of Prumthesan fight for their freedom from Assuwelli oppression.

Its inner city was ruined by a Black Pillar that crashed into the palace, unleashing more Ente-Ruri that slaughtered the inhabitants and its king.

The current duke, Uris, was a Pelgir with a rich black moustache. He wanted to make peace between the Assuwelli and the Prumthesans, but when the Assuwelli still insisted to conquer the Prumthesans, he and his subjects supported the latter. The New Assuwelli denounced them as "traitors", but the Prumthesans formed a trade route that bypassed the Assuwelli, now known as the Northern Way.

## Features

This city is actually two cities: the outer town where the survivors live, and the ruined inner city.

### Regions beyond Walkorudur

* Etukos, Waituros, Derūkos, Rutes, Areskōr - five protectorates located along the eastern coast of the Paharal Jungle.

## Trivia

* "Walkorudur" means "city of monsters" (walko - "monster"; "rudur" - "city"). "Laksedroth" means "city of marble" ("lakses" - "marble"; "droth" - "city").
Tornarin Bombardment

The **Tornarin Bombardment** was a catastrophic event waged by the Tornarin Empire.

A few millennia before the present day, Toralis was united by the ambitious warlord Taral Tamandar. As he raised his army, he secretly built superweapons and fired them at the whole continent of Palkyras, killing millions and weakening its defenses.

For four years, Taral's army of warriors, clones, and automatons swept across most of the continent, subjugating and enslaving its peoples. Nonetheless, several nations managed to break free from his rule, and when he died, his empire fell apart as it was torn between his officers and princes.

Many calendars across the continent of Palkyras were dated from the year when it took place (800 years after the start of the Zvestarid calendar), although they also did this as part of a standardisation plan that was interrupted by Taral's warmongering.

One possible reason why Taral bombarded the continent was to supposedly claim the arid lands west of Vozolaz, where the paradise of Taostchatri was supposedly located. According to some of the plans his officers left behind, and the propaganda used by later Tornarin rulers, they must conquer western Vozolaz to allow a ritual to be conducted, to ensure Taostchatri's return to erase all evil from the world.

One part of the ritual was creating an artificial lake at what is now southern Mirukuz, and using it to drown beheaded criminals as sacrifices to the Tornarin gods. The puppet state of Mirukuz was established to protect the site, which still exists today as Lake Tavoshon. But it is now a reservoir under the rule of Azgo, which grew new farmland and jungles at southern Mirukuz.

Tuperon

**Tuperon Jonzhiko** is one of the members of Dondaton. He is the band's bassist, although he sometimes plays a single drum in some performances.

## Appearance

Tuperon is an orange-skinned humanoid. His species is the Njewas species.

## History

Inzarîl was a close friend of Tuperon since his childhood. He lived at the purple metropolis of Abijes, at southern Kerason.

In his teenage years as a student of Lhagenawren Academy, Tuperon was the member of a marching and rock band led by Bagofen, as its second bassist. When he grew up, he worked at a farm, tending flocks of *koguri* (cattle) and *pulkotře* (blue chickens).

After his debut performance, he befriended Uahatre, a former member of the crime gang Jorechur. Out of pity, he paid for his bail, sent him to a clinic to heal his addiction, and bought an apartment lot and art supplies to help him begin his own career.

He was summoned with his former bandmates to Kerason, where they were given tests to prove themselves as a rock band. His test was to be sent to Novantir, where he performs for Jechmek the hirhueh (crocodile-dragon), one of his biggest fans.

## Personality

Tuperon is kind.

His hobbies include playing with animals, wrapping ribbons, reading, drumming, and playing guitars.

## Relationships

His friends include Girvadol, Jolari, Vaimorin, and Mitredas; Jolari and Vaimorin are female. They are known for helping weaker students in their school stand up for themselves. He was attracted to Jolari, and before he was summoned, he and Jolari went on dates.

Two other friends of his are Uahâtře and Zalandar, two artists from the southerly city of Abijes. Uahatre was a gang member that he rescued from a prison by paying his bail and helping him develop an art career, and Zalandar was an artist who taught the latter how to paint. They ended up being his companions in some of his trips.

Two of his biggest fans are Inzarîl and Ñatrevando, along with a large group of fans who formed their own army to defend him. Inzarîl is a passionate carer (a feminine fourth gender in Igarin society) who loves to wear pink, and Ñatrevando tends to wear sunglasses.
Wonaovian Neighbourhood

## Names of the Neighbourhood

* Eosome: Kabakilan - "All the [Wonao] Islands"
* Bujanski: Okoljošta - "the Great Neighbourhood"

* Oenlamta
* Baido
* Raoti

### Non-Wonao members

* Irajon
* Bujan
* Visenga
* Pinoguni (sometimes)
* Hiriwa (sometimes)

## Trivia

* The Wonaovian Neighbourhood may be influenced by ASEAN and the European Union, except it falls in an area that corresponds either to East Asia or Melanesia.
* Bujan's role in the Wonaovian Neighbourhood is that of an equal, even in times when it was the most powerful country in the region or the world. The Bujanski Slavs kept claiming themselves that they are "neither masters nor slaves", but only wanting to be equals with the Wonaos.
	+ It was influenced by subverting Soviet anthems and propaganda depicting Russia as the leader of a "brotherhood of nations" (the Soviet Union), in which Bujan is a "brother" who does not lead the Wonaos, but follows them as an equal.

Uorimon

**Uorimon** is a festival held at every November.

## History

This festival commemorates the defeat of the Eimares Celestials long ago.

## Events

Before the games begin, the national anthem of the host country is played.

Chariot racing, sports (such as archery and jousting), and the Grand Celestial Battle (a mock battle).

### Grand Celestial Battle

The mock battle takes place between two teams, which represent the Samylzōrin (machines) and Sjokunzōrin (magic) factions of the later Eimares empire. Optionally, a third team may take part: it may either by the Ontokhōrin (people of Assuwas, a human kingdom) or a custom team.

Before the Grand Celestial Battle may take place, the national anthem of Josol is to be played if the festival is held anywhere near the country of Josol.

#### Rules

“Each team may win either by capturing the other teams’ three shrines *and* the trio-shrines in the middle of the field, or by defeating all enemies in the opposite teams.”

“Combat in this game works like this: a single hit to the chest or back, even with your pad-tipped arrows, defeats an opponent’s soldier. Three blasts from any gun-like weapon, and you’re dead and out of the game.

“No one may use their feet to crush their opponent, nor can any rider use their horse to trample their enemies. And *absolutely* no one may use any weapon against another’s horse, or even their own. Good luck!”

## 1986 Uorimon Faire of Siangwaan

* In 1986, Uorimon was held at 7 November, a Friday.
* Sports: soccer, hockey, parkour, archery, skateboarding, cycling, breakdancing, wrestling
* 1986 jousting champions: ~~Zou San~~ (from Mai Gao, six successive victories), ~~Dai Lewng~~ (from the west), Ranggok (Lashvansh cosplayer), Dak Lok ("Red Storm of the Northern Seas"), Chang Shong.
	+ The reason for these players coming over to the Uorimon Faire was mostly to make fun of Chang Shong for riding a live unicorn into the championship. So these champions also received nationwide ridicule for picking on a "handsome weirdo".
* Although the announcers assumed that Gworofando was present in this competition, it was actually his brother Arisupa. The real Gworofando was at Muk Gan's International Jousting Championship.
To Queen Josol

**To Queen Josol** or **Mother Josol** is the national anthem of the Republic of Josol.

## Lyrics

Hail, Josol, Mother of Ten Thousand Gryphons,
Hail, Josol, Consort of Holy Mandil!
You stand against countless enemies, against a myriad desecrators
Sent by the simmering depths of hell.

Queen of the East, Mother of the Vozonid race,
Your riches are plenteous, your favour is gracious.
Your peaks are bathed in flows of ice
That water your forests and feed Vozolaz below.

I would rather live in freedom
Under the shadow of Mandil, King of the Mountains,
Than to languish in a distant land
Under the rule of a foreign tyrant.

You are pure and sacred: you are the bridge
Between Heaven and Earth, between Man and the Gods.
You are the centre of the world, the pinnacle of its glory,
Bathed in the wondrous light of true Gods.

Ah, none are as you, Queen Josol!
None are as lovely as your sunlit lands.
None can surpass your mighty peaks
From their snow-crowned summits to their foundations.

I would rather live in freedom
Under your justice, Queen Josol,
Than to languish in a distant land
Under the rule of a foreign tyrant!

## Trivia

* This anthem is to be played in B flat major.
* This anthem's lyrics was inspired by "Amar Shonar Bangla", "Jana Gana Mana", and "Du Gamla, Du Fria", the national anthems of Bangladesh, India, and Sweden.
* Before the main event of any Uorimon Game held at eastern Palkyras, this anthem is played.

During the early days of the Igarin Empire, Novantir was ruled by a corrupt priesthood of sorcerers. The priesthood was defeated when the then-nascent Malendor Supercorporation conquered the planet, as the Malendor warlord Rîgara considered the sorcerers to be poor rulers. He unified his alliance at Togara with Novantir, and used Novantir as his new capital.

## Comemmoration

In the Malendor calendar, the Unification is celebrated on 10 Novandöra, where blue flags are raised everywhere. On Novantir, the capital of the Malendor Supercorporation, the celebration is held on 20 Tîrčedra, the 16th month of the local calendar.

Tiribaku

**Tiribaku "Hekutoro" Eosurogoso Wanaxadwoso** is one of several princes of the monarchy of Heronoja.

## History

His uncle usurped his parents to become the king of Heronoja by placing them under house arrest, and he forced Tiribaku into becoming a general through a harsh regimen. When he was caught partying in a nightclub instead of showing up in one of his exercises, it resulted in the Nobles' Council lashing his back and burning it with fire, before quickly healing him inside a machine to torture him again and again.

After being banished from the royal palace, Tiribaku worked in a shoe factory and a noodle restaurant. When his employers tried to return him to the authorities, they refused to receive him. When the restaurant collapsed, he tried to help several people escape, but he also fled as he feared returning to the palace and being tortured again.

He then lived in a cardboard box, scavenging garbage for food and washing himself at a public shower. For a while he lingered there, frightened and alone, until Tesomyro took him in. Now he lives with Tesomyro at his brother's antiques shop like a younger brother.

## Appearance

Like all pure-blooded Heronoi, Tiribaku is blond, blue-eyed, and peach-skinned. However, as a royal, Tiribaku's glow is brighter than that of the average Heronoi in darkness.

He usually wears similar clothes as what Tesomyro wears: either a shirt or a vest, followed by trousers. He had several faded lines along his back: those were what was left of the lashes on his back.

## Personality

As a member of the Heronoi royal family, Tiribaku was raised to be a gentleman. But his heart was more inclined towards adventures, action, and tales of curiously distant lands, instead of being a future leader of the Kingdom of the Moon.

His interests include action and adventure stories, learning about other cultures and languages, and being prim and proper.

He dislikes fire, lashes, the strictness of palace life, the Nobles' Council, and his uncle: these have traumatised him greatly that he fears them.

However, if cornered to an extent, Tiribaku would become so enraged, that he would unleash a lot of destruction.

## Relationships

Grateful that Tesomyro was among the few that cared for him, Tiribaku became his closest friend and guardian.

Although Bonosa was distrustful of him at first, he is glad that Tiribaku also shares his interest in history and classical art. In fact, together with his shared interest with Tesomy on movies and music, he would have the best of both brothers.

## Trivia

* Tiribaku was inspired by Prince Blueblood the unicorn and Daring Charming.
* In earlier drafts, Tiribaku's name was Hector.

Vovtarlans

The **Vovtarlans** are a race of Igarinoids who live on the planet Vovtarla.

## History

The Vovtarlans were descended from pirates that regressed into a poorer state of technology when their fuel supplies ran out. Disgusted by their vulgar appearance, the Sarmelonid Empire's explorers led expeditions to conquer and enslave them.

Several decades later, an educated slave -- Aghurendon -- led a planet-wide rebellion against Sarmelonid rule. He established his own kingdom of Noviron.

## Appearance

Vovtarlans have blue skin and black hair. Some Vovtarlans are hatched with blue hair.

## Biology

Vovtarlans live longer than humans and other grifajes, as a 50-year-old Vovtarlan would be like a 20-year-old on Jerde.

Like all grifajes, Vovtarlan females lay eggs.

## Culture

See also: Vovtarlan calendar, Vovtarlan mythology

The Vovtarlans practice a culture that was heavily-influenced by the Vozonid traditions of the Sarmelonid Empire. As a result, they love gold and silk, and they are religiously-devout. Most of them are worshippers of Pjosaroz, local wights, or Zomjonor.

Dancing, horse-riding, forging swords and pikes, calligraphy, cooking, and dramatic readings are significant traditions in Vovtarlan culture.

Horses are a popular animal in Vovtarlan culture, as they became the national symbol during their war for independence.

## Notable Vovtarlans

* Azdortil Lorrovil - a merchant who crashlanded into Arantar and followed a band of aliens as they tried to find their way home.
* Hakuba - Azdortil's friend.
* Aghurendon I - the founder of Vovtarla's earliest incarnation, the kingdom of Noviron.

## Trivia

* The Vovtarlans were inspired by Yondu Udonta; their culture and art resemble those of Thailand and Majapahit Indonesia; and their modern military uniforms (influenced by the Freyrgardians and Ardeschen humans) resemble those of Austria-Hungary.

Turkey

**Turkey** (Turkish: Türkiye) is a country located between the continents of Europe and Asia. Long ago, the Hittite Empire thrived at the southeast, followed by various other empires such as the Achaemenids, the Macedonians, the Seleucids, the Romans, the Byzantines, the Seljuks, and finally the Ottomans.

## Factfile

* Official name: Republic of Turkey
* Anthem: Independence March/İstiklal Marşı
* Official motto: N/A
* Capital city: Ankara
* State religion: N/A, secular
	+ Major religion: Sunni Islam
	+ Minorities: Orthodox Christian, Judaism
* Government: Unitary presidential constitutional republic
* President: Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
* Climate: Mostly mountainous scrubland, chapparal at the south and west coast, cool temperate in the north, and desert in the southeast.
* Population: 83,154,997
* Currency: Lira (100 kuruşlar)
* National day: October 29 (Republic Day)

## In the Rabydosverse

Although Turkey does not exist in the Rabydosverse, the probable equivalents in that world (especially for the Ottoman Empire) would be the Sarmelonid Empire, Zaqo, and the successor states of Azgo and Vozolaz.

The small country of Nishandji, located to the northeast of Zarijana, would also correspond to Turkey. There are also many countries at southern Darros and western Esami inhabited by the Gotureans, who resemble the Turkic peoples.

## In the Rinnarverse

In the years leading to World War III, Turkey was one of several minor powers that tried to build its own bloc using Central Asian allies and some of its Mediterranean neighbours. It remained independent in spite of attempted invasions from Europe, Libya, and the Earth Union.

A certain leader attempted to revive the Ottoman Empire by invading nearby countries, such as Greece and Armenia. His attempts were stopped when Visegrad sent its armies to protect these countries from destruction.

During the time of the Earth Union, the Unionite leaders sought to punish the peoples of the Middle East for their religious wars and violence by conquering it. Their attempts to conquer the Middle East were repelled, but they managed to control the western half of Turkey for a few centuries. The eastern half was ruled by a resistance movement known as the "Selçuk Republic": it continued the secularist policies of Ataturk; they supported resistance movements in the Unionite-ruled western half, such as the Great City of Hattusa.

Centuries later, a nationalist dictator from Greece sent his armies to conquer Istanbul from the Unionite rulers occupying it, and when his troops succeeded there were widespread celebrations all over the Galaxy. Turkey (along with America and Italy) was among the countries blacklisted in the early Rinnarit Republic for its actions against Greece, which is revered as a holy land in Rinnarit propaganda.

## Trivia

* The Gauvajut civilisation and its Vozonid successors were inspired by a mixture of Hittite and Thai art. The author also used some Turkish words for the Gauvajut language (such as "gunkursa", a disk-like frame for venerating the solar goddess Arinna).
* The Sarmelonid language was influenced by a mixture of Turkish, Thai, Russian, and Sanskrit.
Trismegism

**Trismegism** is an esoteric, philosophical religion from what is now Archonia, near Verucci and Hothro.

## History

Trismegism was founded sometime in the Fifteenth Age by the alchemist Theytos, who became a popular figure for his charity and inventions for the poor in Archonia. His association with the god Hermes made him become known as Hermes Trismegius.

The Trismegists opposed Black Ardesch for what they saw as the misuse of magic, mostly as a superweapon and the destruction of reality as a result. Trismegists were present among the ranks of the Ardeschen Empire and its opponents, but were later mostly opposed to the empire's successors.

Many Trismegists were members of resistance groups against the Terran invasion, joining forces with Denlotian armies. At the same time, some Trismegist groups refused and resisted the more brutal practices committed by the Denlotian rulers and their supporters.

## Beliefs

Trismegism is monotheistic, venerating a single God. His "angels" are present in various aspects of nature, including some actions such as study and art.

### Science

Science, and scientific research and study, are considered sacred in Trismegism. However, compared to the more ceremonial veneration of science in Bujanski Rodnovery, the respect given to science is more quiet among Trismegist practices. Science is not seen as worshipping God, but as a gift from God. Fewer and simpler ceremonies were conducted before or even during scientific studies, but were more common among the more superstitious.

Magic, especially when practiced carefully, is also seen as an alien branch of science, since it manipulates reality and the laws of physics. However, excessive distortion or damage caused by magic is considered sinful.

Most Trismegists do not practice magic due to it being restricted by governments, as the practice of magic is seen as dangerous enough to cause strange disasters. It is also because like most people across Jerde, they do not know how to use magical abilities.

## Adherents

It is practiced in Vozolaz, western Rukania, northwestern Hothro, eastern Gimbarish, Ardesch, and even as far west as Marnos and Bujan.

Hothrovian Trismegists are notoriously stereotyped either as nerds or mad scientists, yet praised for their intelligence.

Some mutants are followers of Trismegism, mostly because it was a trend that caught on, or because they saw it as an outlet for creatively using their powers, and meditation.

Tuksharan Empire

The **Tuksharan Empire** was one of several human empires that competed for domination of the Galaxy. It was a realm from Tukshara that began conquering more planets outside its star system since the Eighth Age.

## History

Initially, the Tuksharan civilisation was eager to explore the world and the Galaxy, but it bloated into a corrupt tyranny bent on subjugating all, turning away from its Buddhist roots.

At the Fourteenth Age, a succession crisis was fought on the planet of Oronir.

Tukshara conquered Resovjant during the Fifteenth Age during its wars to expand eastward. It left its former colony somewhat modernised from a mediaeval society reliant on steel and gunpowder. During its reign, the Tuksharan colonial governors created a simplified version of its Eosome alphabet to be used for computers and typewriters. Later, that same simplified alphabet and the Tuksharans' own machinery was used by local revolutionaries as they freed their homeland from Tuksharan oppression. The Resovjantien people were also very angry that the Tuksharan colonial rulers kept depicting them as savage cannibals, attempting to justify a gradual campaign to reduce their whole people to slaves.

The empire also suffered more defeats at the same time as they were ruling Resovjant. When several imperial expeditions attempted war against the nations of Darania and Maraming, the native armies raided and sabotaged the expeditions, turning the invaders' weaponry against them. One of the many kings of Maraming, Sri Lapu, was the leader of an alliance of lords, having led a number of counterattacks by himself. The Daranians built a mighty navy using Tuksharan technology, and eventually struck a heavy blow on the invaders' fleets on the Battle of Subuhan - the Daranian Royal Navy became the strongest fleet in the region, spurring other nations to use the invaders' machines to build mighty armies of their own in a defensive alliance.

In the Sixteenth Age, the Tuksharan Empire had only its homeland and several isolated star systems left, as its former colonies broke away. So one leader tried to use his fortresses to conquer Jerde, only to lose and be killed, before his empire collapsed.

The industrial revolution that characterised the early Sixteenth Age, an indigenous modernisation of the world, was fuelled by attempts to develop independent technology to withstand the flying castles of the Tuksharans. Two notable theatres of the Tuksharan world wars were at northern Randros, along western Ardesch; and the north of what will become modern Sevraeja.

The ruin left behind by the Tuksharan Empire paved the bloody way for the Sixteenth Age into greater ruin.
