Philippia, officially called the Kingdom of Philippia, is a North Europan country on Eurth.
Etymology
The name Philippa comes from the Arhoman Φίλιππος (Phílippos, “fond of horses”). This is a combination of φιλέω (philéō, “I love”) and ἵππος (híppos, “horse”). This is a reference to the Aroman legionaires stationed in Burania who settled and became fond of keeping horses, much like the native Buran steppe tribes.
Geography
(In SW Burania in Europa on Eurth. Mountainous area along the coast. Wedge in between Vetok to the north, Mongol-Swedes in the east, and Akiiryu to the south.
History
(History defined by the geography. Mountains were relatively safe from raids by Buran hordes. Sparsly populated. Proved excellent location for an Aroman counter-offensive, which ultimately failed to destroy the Buran but established a foothold in Philippia and recaptured the areas which now form part of Vanarambaion and Havebergen. Can be inspired by the history of Philippi.)
(Pretty much left on its own after the fall of Aroma. Heavily suffered during !Viking raids. Forced to negotiate and compromise. Got used to their independence and established a unique culture of their own. Use some image by Jean Baptiste Dieussart as a wink to RL Phil.)
Politics
- Head of State: King Phil IV (House of Sartdu).
- Head of Government: Prime Minister $Person.
Close ties with sister-nations Vanarambaion and Havebergen across the sea.
Economy
(Can be based on a mix of information from the Baltic states.)
Demographics
(Ethnic links with both old Aroma and Burania. Rather late to convert to !Christianity.)
Culture
(Mix of east and west. Seafood and Buran cuisine. Enjoys football. Lookup the name of their football team.)
