Lyrcynthinia (/lɪɹsɪnˈθɪniə/) is a ŋation in west Archipelagia, bordered by the Evil Scamming Country, the Evil Sqamming Country, Trévandroumélisse-Frossantiquervrâssonne-d’Prévallondurévrenne-en-Mijonnâ-Tourvléssourinde-pralondure-Méllontrévresse-Vrassédrinourde, and the Hertskomestat Syndicate. It is owned by kaw57.
Regions
Eville
Eville (/ˈiːvɪl/) is the southernmost settlement and capital of Lyrcynthinia. It features four buildings and has an awe-inspiring skyline. The majority of Evillans are felines.
Eville is directly connected to the Evil Scamming Country and Fucking by the Evil Line.
Eville Underground
The Eville Underground is forbidden. Do not seek an entrance. The Eville Underground does not have a majority species, for it is a lifeless place.
Fucking
Fucking (/ˈfəkɪŋ/) is the northernmost settlement of Lyrcynthinia. It is at the foot of a volcano.[1] The majority of Fuckers are kobolds.
Fucking is directly connected to Eville and the Đoòng Sơn Cavern in Adnar by the Evil Line.
Lyrcynthine Nether Metropolitan Area
The Lyrcynthine Nether Metropolitan Area (a.k.a. Lyrcynether or the LNMA) is defined as “all Areas of the Nether, both Within and on the Roof, which correspond to a specific Point within Lyrcynthinia’s Borders in the Overworld.” The majority of Lyrcynetherines are piglins; however, the LNMA does not get to vote, meaning piglins are only partial citizens due to being unable to live or vote in the Overworld.
Politics
Lyrcynthinia is a hydratic republic; this means it has three heads-of-state and a unicameral legislature. The heads of state are elected by the subsets of the population they represent; the legislature is then chosen by the heads.
The current heads of the hydra are Katherine Frost, representing feline voters; Lyra Tide, representing kobold voters; and Cynthia Moon, representing minority voters. The heads are in charge of both proposing and finalising ŋational decisions; the legislature is in charge of ensuring the heads’ acts are carried out. The legislature also functions as judge and jury in the ŋational courts.
The ŋation aligns itself with the unUŊ and is wary of or antagonistic towards all Gulf-aligned states.
Meaning of citizenship
Citizens of Lyrcynthinia who are living in Eville or Fucking are able to vote on the head-of-hydra that represents their demographic group. Additionally, citizens are protected against unprompted searches, are allowed to carry weapons so long as they are not concealed, and are legally required to be given lower rates for housing.
Minority citizens have extra protections, namely: penalties for attacking minority citizens are increased as compared to non-minority citizens and especially non-citizens, minority citizens’ issues have increased priority, and are able to apply for a concealled-carry license for weapons.[2]
Partial citizens receive most of the priveleges of standard citizenship, but cannot vote.
All citizens of unUŊ member states are automatically citizens of Lyrcynthinia. However, the priveleges of citizenship and minority citizenship only apply to citizens who are currently in Lyrcynthinia.
The ŋation’s laws apply to all residents, citizen or not. Furthermore, the Lyrcynthine government asserts its right to penalise anyone within its borders according to its own laws, regardless of their proper ŋationality.
Interŋational relations[3]
| ranking | ŋations | non-ŋation entities | notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| +3 (close allies) | Adnar | unUŊ | |
| +2 (allies) | Avenyam | LoCATE | |
| +1 (amicable) | Aprux Mexyrhat | default for evil ŋations and for non-Gulf-aligned neighboring ŋations | |
| ±0 (neutral) | Maize | mUŊ | default for neutral ŋations |
| -1 (wary) | Dróstsiśtsi | United Ŋations | default for (presumed) Gulf-aligned ŋations
“UŊ member” often means the same as “Gulf-aligned” as far as most Lyrcynthinian officials are concerned |
| -2 (threat) | Enkavak | Gulf Union | |
| -3 (actively hostile) |
Species
Full citizenship
Felines
Felines are a bipedal species seeming to have evolved from an unknown species of wildcats. Felines are, on average, noticeably shorter than humans, with an average height of roughly 1.51 meters. A feline’s tail is usually 75% as long as they are tall and serves multiple functions, from helping with balance to expressing emotions. Their paws have 4 fingers, one of which functioning similarly to a human’s thumb; their feet have 4 toes. Their fingers and their toes have retractable claws; in social situations, they will usually be retracted — extending one’s claws is generally perceived as a threat. Their natural fur color is in the range of light blue-gray to black with dark markings similar to that of a fakeworld leopard; these markings are difficult to see in dark-furred individuals. Their eye color usually correlates with their fur color: blue-gray felines usually have blue eyes, and black felines usually have orange eyes. However, some individuals have different eye colors than would be expected from their fur color, or expected at all; for example, a dark gray feline’s eyes would typically be a dirty orange, but one may have red eyes instead. The color of their eye describes their sclerae; they do not have irides. Their eyes are nearly perfectly circular, with pupils taking the form of vertical slits. They have a much higher rate of heterochromacy than humans.
Despite being bipedal, felines will often run on all-fours; this allows them to run much faster than humans. They are both carnivorous and fungivorous, but cannot derive enough nutrients from plant matter to sustain themselves with, thus making them not omnivorous. They are often considered the apex predator of Lyrcynthinia’s tundra regions.
Kobolds
Kobolds are a bipedal species which evolved from dragons. They are cold-blooded, often staying away from the cold regions of the ŋation. An average kobold is approximately 2.16 meters in height, making them taller than humans on average. Their skeletons have wingbones, despite the fact no kobold has wings; this is likely a remnant of the dragons they evolved from. Their tails are typically around 30% as long as they are tall. Their snouts are long and wide; their horns take the form of helically-bent cones and are often adorned with jewelery. They have 4-fingered claws, with one finger being on the side and functioning as a thumb. Their feet have 5 toes, 3 of which attached to the front of the foot and 2 of which are attached to the back. Their scales are dark, with males having more warmly-colored scales and females having more coolly-colored scales. Their horns are usually a similar color to their scales, just much lighter. Very rarely, a kobold’s claws will be a different color to their horns. Their eyes are shaped like pointed ovals, similarly to those of humans; their eyes are commonly red or orange in males, or violet or blue in females; however, other colors are also observed, and some individuals have an eye color associated with the opposite sex. The eye color describes their irides, which usually form circles despite their very thin vertical pupils; the sclerae are black in healthy individuals, with other sclera colors being indicative of illness.
They are more naturally proficient in magic compared to most other sapient species, likely owing to having evolved from dragons. Kobolds are strictly carnivorous, being unable to derive a usable quantity of nutrients from plant or fungal matter. Many kobolds are fishers, as that is often the most consistent way of getting nutrients; however, some kobolds take the risk of hunting hoglins in the Nether.
Minority citizenship
Amoguses
- Main article: Amogus
Amoguses are a minority population in Lyrcynthinia. They are treated as full citizens, meaning they get full legal protections and voting rights; as a recognised minority, they have additional protections. Most Lyrcynthinian amoguses live in Fucking, though a non-negligible amount of their population can be found in both Eville and the Nether.
Endermen
Endermen are a tall bipedal species. They have the rights of full citizens, as well as additional protections for legally-recognised minorities. Lyrcynthinian Endermen are found in roughly equal populations throughout each province, including the Nether.
Partial citizenship
Piglins
Piglins are a bipedal species appearing to have evolved from pigs. They are most likely warm-blooded, despite freezing to death in the Overworld. An average piglin is around the same height as an average human.
Despite presumably being mammals, piglins show no signs of sexual dimorphism.
While their diet has not been studied extensively, many piglins claim to be carnivorous. Demographically, approximately 67% of mature Lyrcynthinian piglins are hoglin-hunters, either by trade, recreationally, or as sustenance hunters.
Piglins are legally considered citizens, meaning they have certain legal protections only afforded to sophonts; however, they are not full citizens nor a legally-recognised minority, meaning they cannot vote.
Non-citizens
Humans
- Main article: w:Human
Humans are a bipedal species descended from apes. They are legally treated as tourists, regardless of the duration of their stay.
Known government projects
Project Moonbeam
Project Moonbeam is a weapon-of-mass-destruction, intended to deter any potential attackers. The Lyrcynthinian government has explicitly stated that Moonbeam will not be used in war unless another ŋation uses or attempts to use a superweapon against Lyrcynthinia.
W.R.A.T.H.
W.R.A.T.H. is intended as a way to protect against superweapons, intending to destroy incoming attacks and coat the fragments in water to lessen their impact.
Footnotes
- ↑ don't fact check this yet i'm not done terraforming
- ↑ Most applications are rejected as you need a really, really good reason for it, but all applications from non-minority citizens and non-citizens are automatically rejected
- ↑ worth noting is that, despite Lyrcynthinia's name being obviously inspired by </oorp>, all of these rating are </rp>; oorp i think every ŋation is awesome
