## Laws and Regulation

The law of the land is mainly dictated by either the King or the High Priestess, many foreign affairs are handled by the King while the Priestess oversees domestic affairs. But the Military is joint ruled by the two equal parts aside their own private guards.

**All citizens are granted the rights to defends oneself, property and belongings as well all citizens the rights to bare arms.**

***Citizens are granted the freedom of religion and the pursuit of happiness, but self expression and speech are both restricted in regards to tradition, the crown, the nation and the High Priestess.***

**All citizens are expected once they have come of age to participate at least 1 years worth of military training before anything else. Less forfeit basic rights.**

***While society is rarely concerned with race or sex, one's honor, discipline, and family name brings with them great weight.***

**Trials are handled by a judge who decides to punish or not as set forth by the law of the land.**

## Livelihood

### Demography

**Humans** : Commonly referred to as the Human homeland, many of them call this place home within the time honored ways and traditions.

**Elvin** : Most of the world's Elvin still call Camelot their home as not many of them have yet felt the need to migrate to new lands.

**Other** : Many other races call Camelot home for its safety and protection from other places. Though no other races are anything more then small minorities.

### Borders and Immigration

The borders of Camelot are known for being at times cold to outsiders and walled off, few are allowed in unless on business or something else of importance. the ports are even walled off with coastlines having guard towers, while the northern and southern borders have tall walls with even the capital walled off.

Immigration can prove hard as Camelot wants not only people who are educated, but also honorable and of clean records. It has been known that people are sometimes denied access to the nation if they have even so much as a minor infraction on their record. Meanwhile emigrating out of the nation is a serious decision because if you even talk about it, you best mean it or lose your honor to society within Camelot.

### Occupations

Though Camelot can seem a largely agricultural society from it's outer appearances it is also a major supplier of raw materials rather they be wood, stone, copper, and many other such goods.

**Farming** - Many Camillians earn an honest living by farming the southern fields, commonly called Remorale's bread basket.

**Mining** - Large portions of the Elvin kin work for the mining operations of Camelot gathering the rich raw resources from the mountains for trade.

**Forestry** - As still yet others find themselves working the mills to the north producing most of the worlds lumber based products.

**People's Militia** - The main branch of the military and the one in which both leaders much reach an agreement on before the Militia can perform near any said actions.

**Table Knights** - Arthur has what is called the Table Knights or the Knights of the round table, this elite branch of the military allows the king to have a direct source of power projection where he does not need the Priestess' consent.

**The** **Paladins**  - Holy warriors that fight in the name of the Priestess, giving her a means of similar power projection as the king himself.

### Goods and Services

**Goods**

Camelot provides a wide range of raw goods to other nations, be it farm goods like wheat or vegetables, or it be its many lumber and mining related goods it provides to the world. Camelot's harbor is second only to Polikeanos itself for trade these days.

**Services**

Camelot offers protection services, training, and some of the highest quality in terms of strict and to the point education in the world.

## Politics

### Domestic

Camillians can seem to outsiders harsh and cold, but to them this is honor and justice. They view that all society should adhere to a set and hardened line of rules to function and survive in the long run. After all, Camelot has survived for over 1,000 years for a reason, or so they say.

Camelot honors and value strength above all other things, and views true strength is found by those who stand up for the weak and fight in the name of the Goddess and her avatar the High Priestess. While Camelot does lean towards traditional gender values more than others places, it does however place higher importance towards honor and especially lineage. This does at times make it hard for immigrants to get by, as the nicer things are usually reserved for those with time honored names.

Additionally Camelot is not known for being a land that is as forgiving to none traditionalists. Meaning man and woman, that have and raise their own children without the need for help from society. This has meant that Camelot is viewed as oppressive to some and becomes why alienated citizens will at times emigrate from these lands but sadly for those desiring more freedoms. Camelot prides itself in truly being the safest nation in all the world.

### Foreign

**Nepvita:** Camillians look at Nepvitites with extreme disdain and at times racist hatred. For Camelot strength is through honor and tradition, but Nepvita believes anyone can prove strength in the valor of war! This means the two nations have never seen eye to eye. As well as Camelot blames Nepvita for a lot of the worlds instability.

**Polikeanos:** Camelot views Polikeanos as a valuable ally for trade and stability, as well Camillians largely approve of their way of life and view this nation as a friend for the most part.

**L'Atoll de Sables:** A enemy as old as time some feel, Camelot views L'Atoll as nothing but a bunch of awful thieves calling themselves a nation.

**Riavuilte:** A strange land Camelot once tried and failed to expand into, to Camelot these lands are a giant enigma that makes little to no sense to them how it maintains itself.

## History

Camelot is the oldest surviving nation in this world, originally forging an existence near Metals Peak where they first discovered how to forge Steel from Iron. Their civilization rapidly grew into surrounding lands as they became a powerful nation with strong sets of laws and order. Soon the Elves of the mountains and mankind from their fields to the south formed one Nation then named Camelot. The nation of ages as some grew to call it for it seems to last forever.

As their civilization grew, so to their capital known as the Eternal City. Where they built a grand cathedral to their Deity the Goddess of Wisdom Athenna. For a time Camelot came into a golden age as it rapidly expanded outwards onto the Crescent Continent and became the most powerful nation in the world.

As the centuries past though this golden age came to an end with the failed Atoll wars, soon followed by the failed Woods Campaign into Riavuilte. For a time Camelot came close to collapse before King Arthur and High Priestess Jeanne d'Arc came to power. Now as the two begin to rekindle time honored traditions and push the economy forward with promotions of trade and business, some say this once great civilization is rising once more.
