First known records of human habitation on the main island of present day Rhodevus is documented to be around circa. 12,000 BCE. It is thought that humans crossed over land bridges from the Corentian continent formed during that time, taking up residence in Southern Rhodevus. Fossil records have found skulls and bones of early Rhodeve settlers as well as rudimentary stone tools surrounding areas that could have been campsites.


From this time until 5,000 BCE, little is known of ancient Rhodeve history aside from the spread of the inhabitants across the entire island. Circa. 5,000 BCE is when the first documentation of Rhodevan mythologies have been found. This comes in the form of stone and clay idols as well as Tree-Shapes in the West and South. The first true villages have been set up in present day Quiniac City and Redford in Tundos as well as Sigfree and Willowall in Iylan among other places.
Ancient Sacrificial Pit found
in Wistletoe, Northern Iylan
A thousand years later, carvings found in Northern Iylan show depictions of the Gometz Highlander Myth. This myth forms the basis of the Ghong Tribe’s founding. It can be predicted that the Ghongg Tribe was founded around this time making it the oldest Rhodevan Native tribe by about 1,500 years. Also found in the area were dozens of bones of deformed children and elderly, revealing that this ancient precursor to the Modern Ghong sacrificed the elderly and deformed. Most likely to appease an ancestral spirit or diety.
In 3,000 BCE, archeological evidence finds tools and weapons made in the Lirban format. The Lirban people were a native group from Philomachus. Landing in the Bentoshi Island Chain circa 3,100 BCE, the people began attacking their way through the Southern half of the country before most likely taking up permanent residence in the Mentoshi island Chain, in what is now the Imperial City of Rhode. Along with bringing new types of weapons to the island, the Lirbans also brought with them a new style of mythology, which focused less on weather and more on plants, animals and spirits. It is also widely believed that the Lirban tribe and the spread of their language lead to the ancient Rhodevan languages as well as became a precursor to the Laaban Tribe, which was also found in the Mentoshi Island Chain. Lirban practiced relied heavily on sacrificial human slaughter, as can be noted in burial pits found across the ICR as well as sacrificial alters in Eastern Tundos.
500 years after, what can be more commonly linked to as Rhodevan religion or mythos can be seen all around the island and its island chains. The first recorded evidence of the symbol used to describe Ke-etunbits Taharei can be seen carved into multiple caves and mountainsides. The largest of these carvings are on Mount Benner at an elevation of 4,284 meters, in the Richard Weilland Caves and the San Blanc Caves in Wyle, Tundos and Iylan respectively.
Circa. 2,300 BCE was when the first true carvings can be dated back to for the Laaban Retwa Tribe, a proto-tribe considered to be the precursor to the Laaban tribe. The Laaban Retwa held similar beliefs and practices to the pre-modern Laaban tribe, such as a myth and story structure in song form, body-painting of images to give the wearer strength or special powers as well as fire-death circles; a now out of practice dance wherein the dancers would dance around a fire to call on death to strike a certain person or group. These practices, recorded through carvings mainly on bone and stone, show the precursors to what would eventually become more standardized beliefs and customs, seen around 1000 CE.

The Kingdom of Rhodevus, commonly referred to as just Rhodevus (pronounced /lɪndɜːnhɒlt/), is a Non-Hereditary Absolute Representative Monarchy (see: Rubinian Monarchy) located in Northern Dogmana. It is a large-sized country with a population of around 85.2 million people, most of which live in the country's six provinces and two territories in Dogmana. Around 5.5 million Rhodeve live on the Ile du Fleurs off the coast of Ventismar, giving Rhodevus a maritime border with Makenzie and Athabaska. Around 2.5 million people live on the Iles du Surete in the Divergian Ocean. Rhodevus proper borders Aznazia to the South.

The country's capital is Kingstown and it's largest city is Quiniac City, with the second largest city being Port joy, which hosts the country's largest sea port. The third largest city is Carpellin.


Rhodevus is one of the founding members of the United Sunalayan Assembly. It is also a founding member of the International Anti-Terror Association, Imperial Formations Treaty and the Rhodeve Commonwealth.Its currency is the Rhode.

Rhodevus has a free market economy, and ranks in the top ten GDP per capitas in the world. It is one of the 10 largest economies in Sunalaya, and is ranked 7th in the human development index with a very high standard of living.

Etymology

While a variety of theories have been postulated for the etymological origins of Rhodevus, the name is now accepted as coming from the Port Joy Laaban Tutzo word Rudo Evulo, meaning "bountiful of sea creatures". In 1326, indigenous inhabitants of present day Port Joy region used the word to direct French explorer, Beaumant LaFriore to the Straights of Rhode, where the severely malnourished explorer and crew would be able to catch fish to eat. Beaumant LaFriore used an amalgamation of those words to describe the entire region in Laaban Tutzo control. By 1425, Ventismarien books and maps had begun referring to this small region along the Straights of Rhode as Rhodevus.

From the 16th to the early 17th century, "Rhodevus" referred to the part of New Capsland that lay along the Straights of Rhode, as well as the official name for the French North of the island. Following the Failed Revolution and the signing of the Treaty of Rhodevus, the entire landmass and its islands became collectively known as Rhodevus.

Demographics

Population pyramid of Lindenholt, 2017.


Language

Rhodevus's national languages are English, French and Native Rhodevan. Schools nationwide teach the language and use it for instructions. English is predominantly spoken in the urbanized South of the country, while French is mainly spoken in the North. Native Rhodevan and its many dialects are spoken throughout the country, especially in rural communities. Informal communication in many rural areas is usually conducted in what is collectively referred to as Gulong , which is a mixture of English, French and Laaban Dialect of Native Rhodevan.

Around 93% of the Lindian population is at least fluent in the English or French languages. With the remaining 7% consisting mostly out of foreigners.

Around 67% of Rhodeve have English as their first language with 28% having French as their first language. The remaining 5% are a mixture of native and international languages.

In a survey by StatsRhodevus in 2016, around 81% of Rhodeve above the age of 18 were conversationally proficient in English and around 55% were sufficient in French. 71% considered themselves bilingual and 39% considered themselves trilingual.

Ancient Sacrificial Pit found in Wistletoe, Northern Iylan A thousand years later, carvings found in Northern Iylan show depictions of the Gometz Highlander Myth.

Culture

Art

Rhodeve music ranges from Classical; written in the early 1800's to Rock which is being written up to this day. Most music is written and performed by hand without using computers and voice software. This gives Rhodevus a much more humanistic feel to the music and less robotic and techno. Rhodeve art is mainly sculptures created by hand and made out of the clay and stones found in the Province of Tundos.

Philosophy and literature

Rhodeve classical literature is mainly poetry about the beginning of Rhodevus and the various wars which where fought within the country. Some famous poetry is The Sun and Moon, May he be Remembered, Lost but not Forgotten and Wither Away.

Architecture

Sport

Rhodeve citizens generally partake in many different sports including the national sports; Hockey and Karate, as well as basketball, baseball and soccer to name a few. Every year Rhodevus holds a national and international Karate Tournament called: The Rhodeve Martial Arts Seminar. (RMS)
