## We Have a Vision

With many friendly ties to other nations and settlements, we have already passed the first step to becoming a great people ourselves. Plans are ready to be unfolded to provide the best to our future friends and strangers who wish to join hands in a firm handshake. We plan to be "The Helping Hand" in the world of Althea and extend arms to people in need. We hope to bring the people of opposing nations together as not allies but friends. This vision is not just a vision. It is reality. And we cannot wait to spend it side by side with you. Join us. There is just a matter of time before you miss the spark.

## Overview & Plans

With a massive port just finished being built and plots ready to be populated by future citizens and their homes, we are doing anything but poorly. Plans to expand with fortifications for our own defense, and a standing army for the safety of our people are standing around the corner. Other plans include "Project Helping Hands." Once the port is open, it will obviously be open for trade and commerce. But of the same importance, others are welcome to travel and ask for assistance. Anything to general help or major threats to you and your own people. We are here to help. There is no catch. As long as we deem your help needed, there is no price you need to pay for falling to your knees without your say.

### **Opportunities**

#### Humanity

- We will help you get on you feet if need be. Food will be provided and a plot of land will be obligated toward you. Whether if you want to build your own or pick a home is up to you. Protection will always be one of the highest we will provide you with. Not only physical, but financial and ideological protection will be given as well. Everyone will be treated with a grade of respect as per the golden rule.

#### Housing & Personal Land Claims

- Like what was written above, we can provide a comfortable home for you if you wish or we supply you with a sizable plot of land under your name (and your name only unless you wish otherwise) and you can do with it what you want. But with land being a rare commodity in Althea, extra plots for shops, farmland, etc. will come at a sort of reasonable cost. Otherwise, we hope this doesn't discourage you.

#### Jobs

- We will provide certain jobs you can take such as but not limited to, our Reserve (More information below), Dedicated Guards, Farmers, Ranchers, and other skills. These we will pay for your service or for some you will have to sell your gain for a profit whether that be pertaining in the city or globally with other states or nations.

#### Political Affiliation

- We expanded the government to not be held in a monarch style, but to be more of an open elect to give the people of Rhelencia a say in what we do. We value others' voices as ours on our own can skip a lot of thoughts that may be held in another environment than ours. We will definitely give trusted citizens a chance at a higher voice that will be heard by their brothers.

### **The Reserve**

The Reserve is our main force of aid towards groups and individuals that would need our help. They are our workforce that brings said aid to the area that needs help. They also act as a standing army when the time comes. They will be treated and trained as an army as if they were not to lend help in the first place.

## History

### Declaration

The Ukialtan civil war following just weeks after the world war severely weakened their forces. Ukialta did not have the stregnth to do much of what it used to. Taking advantage of this, many that didn't agree with the civil war at the time and fled seeking a stable form of leadership. This refugee group formed Rhelencia as a peace keeping state to aid those in need of help. They hated the idea of an iron fist ruler and wanted to focus on morals more than wealth and power. As they lended aid, others noticed Rhelencia's potential and more and more joined from other nations as an escape from tirranical governments.

### State's First Steps

When the nation of Finna noticed that, Zedgar Nodrik, one of their most useful citizens, abandoned them in search of a more opportunistic land. Finna retaliated and sent letters demanding he be returned or be faced with physical conflict. More letters were sent via dove and a meeting was scheduled between General Roo of Finna and Executive Officer William of Rhelencia. The meeting was far cooled down compared to the wording of the mail back and fro and a solution was soon met. Rhelencia was able to keep the runaway if Finna was given a moderate amount of food as they claim Zedgar took Finna owned goods when escaping. Rhelencia dropped off their request and the conflict went silent.
