Ralmia

The Kingdom of Ralmia is a country in Eastern Venecivia. It is bordered by Olmaria to the north, the Irricoln Sea to the east, Insulaea to the south and Kaleristo to the East. It is known for being the wealthiest and most powerful country in Venecivia. Ralmia has a temperate climate, with cool winters and mild summers. Due to its native sorcerers’ abilities with the earth, soil and plants, Ralmia has the most successful agriculture, and therefore economy,  in Venecivia. Most lower-class Ralmians are farmers.

The capital of Ralmia is Iminia. It is an incredibly wealthy city, and most of its citizens live in luxury.

Sorcerers in Ralmia are the ruling class. They have the ability to manipulate the earth and can make plants grow at will.

## Monarchy

Ralmia is an absolute monarchy. The current ruler is King Edric Harelle, who has been married to Queen Freida for almost 25 years. Their eldest son and heir is Crown Prince Kestin Harelle, and they also have twins Prince Marcus and Princess Morgana, who are named after the ancient heroes of Ralmia, as well as a younger daughter, Princess Marielle.

## Notable Historical Events

By far the most notable event in Ralmian history is the Ralmian Civil War, also referred to as the Ralmian Sorcerer Revolution, or simply the Ralmian Revolution. In 945 EM (3430 BP), the country was ruled by the human dictator Kingsley Gladwine, and, much like in Glaciana, the sorcerer population was oppressed. For the next two years, a struggle occurred between Gladwine and his nobles and the sorcerer leader Lena Harelle, ending in the defeat of the humans and the crowning of Queen Lena I. The Harelle family remained the ruling dynasty of Ralmia right through to the present day. Since the Civil War, all human attempts to unseat the sorcerer rulers have failed.

Another major event in Ralmian history was the Battle of Iminia, in which King Edric and his forces, accompanied by those of Insulaea, Ralmia, Kaleristo, Glaciana and the Olmarian Highborn houses of Gryffon and Arrowood, faced off against the Guild of Crows, led by the House of Ambrogio. The King's forces were successful, thanks to the assistance of April Caldwell.

## Religion

Most Ralmians follow the same religion as those in Olmaria. They are polytheistic, worshipping a wide array of gods who they believe blessed them with their powers. Temple attendance is mandatory every Sunday for all those who are fit enough to go.

## Crime and Punishment

In Ralmia, treason and murder are punishable by death through hanging. Crimes such as heresy, theft and assault will result in imprisonment for several years.

## Relationships with other nations

Ralmia has good trading relationships with most Venecivian countries. Their closest relationship is with their Kaleristan neighbours, as Ralmia supplies them with fresh produce and water, which are hard to produce in the Kaleristan deserts. Ralmia also trades lots with the Olmarians, who, like them, are ruled by sorcerer dynasties. The only Venecivian country with which the Ralmians will not exchange goods is Glaciana, as all Ralmian monarchs have been far too disgusted at their treatment of sorcerers.
