Based on and updated from the 1st Cultural Protocols version: http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=423730 (appropriately passed: http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=441579) 3. Based on and updated from the 2nd Cultural Protocols version: http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=441983 4. Please note, these numbers, while not stagnate, should not fluctuate wildly. Large demographic changes should only occur with an extensive RP, and consent of all involved. N A T I O N A L - D E S C R I P T I O N Alduria is a nation steeped in traditional and ceremony. Alduria was once a component of the Holy Luthori Empire, one of the worlds largest empires that has ever seen the light of day. Alduria thus has a huge monarchist component to it, many people support the idea of a monarchy which is based on an 18th-century Bourbon monarchy. The Aldurian state however, has been torn apart by several ideologies and the common Aldurian, while a monarchist, has become quite nationalist due to their perceived foreign rule at times by the Holy Luthori Empire. This has created a strong, nationalist (and at times Republican) movement that focuses on the building of a strong state that is modeled after Vichy France. Natanaël Auch, a Aldurian nationalist writer and leading nationalist politician has formed a "Auchism" (In-game Gaullism) that focuses on building a strong executive that is powered to do as it must to protect the nation. P R E - G A M E - H I S T O R Y The territory of Alduria was in the past inhabited by Malvic (Austronesian) tribes. In antiquity, the coasts of South Seleya, including the Aldurian coasts, were colonized by Selucian (Roman) city-states, leading to the future emergence of the Canrilaise (French) people and culture. During the Middle Ages, these city-states crystallized into a number of feudal kingdoms, and for much of its Medieval history most of the territory of Alduria was under the rule of the neighboring Canrillaise nation of Kanjor. Modern Alduria became a separate and united entity in 2072, with the unification of the various Canrillaise polities on its territory. E T H N I C I T Y Canrillaise (French) - 82% Luthori (British) - 7% Malvic (Austronesian) - 5% Duntrekker (Afrikaner) - 4% Other - 2% N O T E S - O N - E T H N I C I T Y 1. The largest ethnic group in Alduria is the Canrillaise people, who are also the dominant ethnicity in Kanjor and Rildanor. The Canrillaise people are based on contemporary French people, and they speak the Canrillaise (French) language. 2. Luthoris are a significant minority in Alduria, as a result of centuries of common history in the modern era, including periods of political union. After Alduria's independence from Luthori, many Luthoris left the country. Luthoris are based on the British people, and they speak the Luthori (English) language. 3. The Malvic peoples were once the largest and most widespread ethnic group on the continent of Seleya, until the southwards expansion of Superseleyan (Indo-European) civilizations. Malvic peoples are based on Austronesians, and they speak the Malvic (Austronesian) languages. 4. Duntrekkers form a significant minority in Alduria, largely due to the proximity of Saridan. The Duntrekkers are an ethnic group of Dundorfian (Germanic) descent, inhabiting various areas of Artania, Seleya,and Majatra. The Duntrekkers left Dundorf for other parts of Terra in the 1600-1700s, for a variety of reasons and remain a distinctive ethnic group to this day. They are based on Afrikaners in terms of culture and language. R E L I G I O N Hosianism (Christianity) - 82% (Overall) - Aurorian Church (Roman Catholic Church, Gallican Rite) - 73% - Jacquardism (Huguenot) - 7% - Agathism (Catharism) - 13% - Other denomination of Hosianism - 2% Other (Including Irreligious) - 5% N O T E S - O N - R E L I G I O N The largest religion in Alduria is Hosianism, a monotheistic religion founded in 1 CE which believes Eliyahu of Yishelem to be the Spirit of God and the Saviour of mankind. The largest Hosian denomination in Alduria is the Aurorian Patriarchal Church, the largest Patriarchal (Catholic/Orthodox) church created in 3861 by the merger of previously separated Churches. The Aurorian Church is closely connected to Canrillaise identity, and Canrillaise serves as the Church's liturgical language. The second largest Hosian denomination is represented by Jacquards, a Luthoran (Protestant) group following a Tasselist (Calvinist) theology, heirs of the Abjuration (Reformation) in South Seleya. Agathism forms the second largest religion in Alduria, and it is a syncretic faith combining elements of the Aldegarian (Iranian) religions with Hosian elements. Agathism was born in the Middle Ages in Kanjor, and most of its faithful relocated to Alduria as a result of persecution by the Hosian Church. Agathism is based on Catharism. |

| Random quote: "In Germany they first came for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
