| =====Demographics===== | =====Demographics===== |
| |
| =====Government===== | As has been so far revealed in the comic, Reynland has four races of [[Reyn]] inhabiting it: [[Red Reyn]], [[Gray Reyn]], [[Snow Reyn]], and [[Fens]]. Reds appear to be the most populous. Each race mainly inhabits a certain area that comprises their homeland, and races rarely live outside of their homeland. Usually those that do are envoys, merchants, and soldiers. |
| |
| Reynland's system of government is based on historic European feudalism and shares many similarities to it. Queen Avelina rules in the capital, [[Caerreyn]], while individual lords control various smaller fiefs, each with its own laws and military, though still beholden to the Queen. Some lords, such as [[Julian Urocyon|Lord Julian Urocyon]] of the [[Auberwood]], are disgruntled with the Queen's rule and actively seek secession. | =====Culture===== |
| |
| In addition, other actors | Reynland culture is varied among its races. Red Reyn are cosmopolitan, living in large fortified cities. Gray Reyn live in houses built in the trees of the Auberwood, and have only one major settlement, the [[Relran Tree]], to their name. Snow Reyn live in cities in their northern homeland of Alopexia, and many live lives as entrepeneurial inventors and merchants, trading with the various cities of Reynland. The Reyn consume both food similar to real-life dishes as well as some exotic foods like the [[Vandairian Flora|Goldwelond Fruit]]. Reynland technology is medieval in nature, as is seen in the comic's architecture and military. |
| | |
| =====Military===== | |
| | |
| Like most historic feudal societies, Reynland does not maintain a nation-wide standing army, but rather exercises power through the highly structured military of Caerreyn pulled from the Queen's direct holdings. They also maintain as a royal magical organization called the Mages of Caerreyn, which is separate from the military but still act in a similar function. Feudal lords are responsible for the security of their own realms, and maintain their own separate military and mages that are beholden to their own lord before the Queen. Military technology is fairly well developed, with [[airships]] and [[anti-airship cannons]] both shown in the comic, but otherwise the military uses medieval-era equipment like swords, maces, and axes. | |
