Lithern

**Government:** monarchy

**Leader:** King Johnson

**History:** The kingdom of Lithern was founded in 1735 when an explorer who's name is unknown found it. In one of his writings he said, “The island was so shrouded in mist that all I was able to see was the beach.” he immediately sent a letter back to his homeland, the king responded by saying that such a small area had no use to them and to pretend it didn't exist, the explorer refused to forget its existence and claimed it as its own kingdom, kingdom were so infuriated that he betrayed them that they declared war on his tiny island country, by that point the explorer had gathered a decently sized army of natives and by some miracle defeated the opposing army. They then declared the island, The Kingdom Of Lithern, after the explorers great grandfather, duke Lithern.

**Architecture:** Most buildings in Lithern are modeled after the natives houses, being made of wood with roofs made of either straw or clay though the houses of dukes or important people are made of bricks and stone, some people living in extreme poverty live in houses made of dirt. Almost all houses have one floor but the castle of king Johnson has 5 floors and is home to only 4 people (excluding slaves and paid workers), king Johnson, queen Louise, prince Davis and princess grace

**Clothing:** clothing in Lithern mostly depends on status in the kingdom. Most people wear dirt covered clothes and ripped pants (sometimes no pants at all) though if you have enough money you can get clean clothes and clean pants

**Landscape:** the area around the castle is covered with small mountain. The largest of these mountains only reaches about 1000-2000 meters high

**Culture:** the natives still have a lot of culture on the island, with their foods still being made and eaten and religion still being practiced all around the island

**Relations:** the kingdom doesn't  have many allies or enemies, though they have been in wars multiple times (mostly with the natives over land)

**Coin:** Lithern has a system where the main currency is eggs and copper coins, most houses have a chicken coop in the back of it and copper coins are only used by the important figures on the island.

**Money making:** Money is made mostly by selling chicken feathers, beaks, eggs and meat. (If you don't have a chicken coop you’re either a very rich person or you’re very poor)

**Social:** The social rankings are fairly simple, it goes downwards in this order, king/queen princes/princesses, dukes/duchesses, nobles, common folk, slaves. The slaves have almost no rights while common folk have minimal the prince and princess have the most rights of any people excluding the queen and king
