Geography
- Administrative map: https://anterra.miraheze.org/wiki/Kodeshia#Administrative_divisions
History
- Classical orioni
- Can I borrow anything from Anitta (king)?
- Re-use the many ages of Elam#Elamite Empire as inspiration for my Medani Empire.
- Opet Festival as explanation of divine royalty
- Put a dubious find of Orinese coins in either Western Argis or Alharu. See: Carthaginian coins of Corvo.
- Write my own version of the Tale of the Shipwrecked Sailor.
- Insular Orioni
- During the insular era, introduce some economic cycles, as described in The Great Wave (book).
- 424 BCE — Borrow Classical history of Dion from Dion, Pieria (°424 BCE).
- The Pearl Road needs some ruling council system. Look at the Hanseatic League. I require some form of tax ruling to justify the later collection of back taxes, and formation of colonial empire. See also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR3IhT-XvsE&t=292s
- 1100s — Have !Saint Hildegarde (1098-1179) flee to Orioni, so she can be more independent. This fits into the post-war Restoration period (~12th Century).
- Colonial Orioni
- 1300s — Use of !Catalan Company mercenaries to police the vast colonial assets (~14th Century).
- 1600s+ — Vassals send tribute in the form of a golden tree (see Bunga mas). Can be larger or more frequent to punish bad vassals.
- Quote of some imperialist admiral: "(Political) power comes from the barrel of a cannon. It must always be the Orinese who aim the cannons."[a]
- See if I can re-use the story of these female monarchs for any of my empresses: Nest ferch Rhys (1085-1136), Empress Matilda (1102-1167), Razia Sultana unknown-1240).
- Piracy
- How about some pirates that come and kidnap people? Either Orinese in Volsci, or Buranians in Orioni.[1]
- 1400s — Employ a successful version of the !Victual Brothers as my explanation for pirate cooperation during the Civil War, and Buran influences afterwards.
- 1700s — Gotta have Black Caesar (pirate) from Azania.
- 1800s — How about Zheng Yi Sao from Ide Jima?
- Modern Orioni
- Stick the Pathé logo on some old news photograph or film reel.
Politics
- Last Sibiseba election: https://iiwiki.us/wiki/2020_Azmaran_legislative_election
- Foreign relations of Orioni
- Do something with Synarchism (rule by a secret elite).
- Revisit the idea of Project O-Mega, with inspiration from the Megali Idea.
Military
- Military vehicle classes named after this List of war deities: Agasaya, Agrona, Andarta, Anhur, Gurzil, Junda, Laran, Maher, Makanduk, Mangala, Montu, Muzha, Nezha, Perun, Sidapa.
- Profile page for Mario Ramius with a backstory like his one: https://breakingdefense.com/2021/12/whos-who-in-defense-admiral-christopher-w-grady-vice-chairman-of-the-joint-chiefs-of-staff/
- Setup Vali(s) Group.
- Setup Buran Group as a private military company to sabotage Volsci (see fake Turan Group, supported by Wagner).
Fix military ranks.— Orioni (talk) 19:54, 7 December 2022 (UTC)- 'Rumbler' aeroplane (~rumblr).
- How to Rebuild the Navy, after the Thalassan War. https://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/2022/january/getting-back-top-how-rebuild-navy
- I really like the SAAB aircraft design. Use the Saab 35 Draken (1960-2005), Saab 37 Viggen (1971-2007), Saab JAS 39 Gripen (1996–present). In the future, maybe get the Korean KF-21?
- Replace Adenhold Bruiser with the equally swole Andika Perkasa. Cool picture on Reddit: https://redd.it/sx1k7t
- Develop a big rocket called Sharur (mythological weapon).
Economy
- Duban Air or Debon Air for the affluent.
- B Building Company (BBC) with shady business dealings.
Culture
- Amisti uitbreiden met Onarigami, en linken met Anahita uit de Ryukyuan religion.
- Elitism inspired by Ayyavazhi and El Shaddai.
