  4. History of Orioni
    1. Can I borrow anything from Anitta (king)?
    2. Re-use the many ages of Elam#Elamite Empire as inspiration for my Medani Empire.
    3. During the insular era, introduce some economic cycles, as described in The Great Wave (book).
    4. Borrow Classical history of Dion from Dion, Pieria (°424 BCE).
    5. Drawing by St. Hildegarde of "Gott, Kosmos und Menschheit“ from Scivias, Table 4. (Looks similar to the Flag of Orioni.)
      Have !Saint Hildegarde (1098-1179) flee to Orioni, so she can be more independent. This fits into the post-war Restoration period (~12th Century).
    6. 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
    7. Use of !Catalan Company mercenaries to police the vast colonial assets (~14th Century).
    8. Vassals send tribute in the form of a golden tree (see Bunga mas). Can be larger or more frequent to punish bad vassals.
    9. Quote of some imperialist admiral: "(Political) power comes from the barrel of a cannon. It must always be an Orinese who aims the cannon."[1]
    10. 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).
    11. How about some pirates that come and kidnap people? Either Orinese in Volsci, or Buranians in Orioni.[2]
    12. Stick the Pathé logo on some old news photograph or film reel.
    13. Employ a successful version of the !Victual Brothers as my explanation for pirate cooperation during the Civil War, and Buran influences afterwards.
    14. Write my own version of the Tale of the Shipwrecked Sailor.
    15. Put a dubious find of Orinese coins in either Western Argis or Alharu. See: Carthaginian coins of Corvo.
  5. Geography
    1. Administrative map: https://anterra.miraheze.org/wiki/Kodeshia#Administrative_divisions
  6. Politics
    1. Last Sibiseba election: https://iiwiki.us/wiki/2020_Azmaran_legislative_election
    2. Foreign relations of Orioni
    3. Do something with Synarchism (rule by a secret elite).
    4. Revisit the idea of Project O-Mega, with inspiration from the Megali Idea.
  7. Military
    1. 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.
    2. 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/
    3. Setup Vali(s) Group.
    4. Setup Buran Group as a private military company to sabotage Volsci (see fake Turan Group, supported by Wagner).
    5. Fix military ranks.
    6. 'Rumbler' aeroplane (~rumblr).
    7. How to Rebuild the Navy, after the Thalassan War. https://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/2022/january/getting-back-top-how-rebuild-navy
    8. 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?
    9. Replace Adenhold Bruiser with the equally swole Andika Perkasa. Cool picture on Reddit: https://redd.it/sx1k7t
  8. Economy
    1. Duban Air or Debon Air for the affluent.
    2. B Building Company (BBC) with shady business dealings.
  9. Culture
    1. Amisti uitbreiden met Onarigami, en linken met Anahita uit de Ryukyuan religion.
