The Rauratoshan Kingdom (English: [ˌɹaʊɹəˈtoʊʃɑn], Rokadong: iS{Sn RauRToQn Sinyasan Rauratoshan [ˈʃiɲaˌsan ˌɾɑwɾəˈtoʃan]), often shortened to just Rauratoshan, is a country on the Southern Ŋafrican coast, north of the Islands of Ʒimh Gwynh.

Etymology

"Rauratoshan" comes from the Rokadong words "rauru" (star) and "shan" (path); the intermediate "to" is from Rokadong's genitive particle. Therefore, the full name means "the path of the stars". Owing to the similar word selshan, meaning galaxy, the name might also refer to the Milky Way galaxy, or the Galaxy System.

Geography

Rauratoshan is primarily comprised of jungle, forest, and savanna biome. Its borders are entirely natural boundaries, traditionally defined as the Islands of Ʒimh Gwynh (which are not claimed by Rauratoshan, but the intervening sea serves as its boundary), the Magaha River, and the desert of Ŋegypt.

Ŋafrican Mainland

Much of Rauratoshan's territory is on the mainland of Ŋafrica. Landmarks of mainland Rauratoshan include Chunkerror Cliffs and the Lilac Forest. Four of the eight stops on the Rauratoshan Loop are on the mainland.

Chunkerror Cliffs

Main article: Chunkerror Cliffs

The Chunkerror Cliffs are a landmark near the town of Yunrai. Contrary to their name, they are not the site of an actual chunk error, but instead, the site of a mining operation wherein an entire chunk was leveled down to bedrock.

Islands of Rauratoshan

Rauratoshanian territory includes six islands: Naho Island, Rafi Island, Irisela Island, Murya Island, Island of :coldspot:, and Island of :hotspot:. The first four of these all are stops on the Rauratoshan Loop as well.

Naho Island

Main article: Naho Island

Naho Island serves as the core of Rauratoshanian power. It contains Remulapola, which is where Original House of Caramella and Original House of Draconis are found. Its most prominent landmark is the Rhetaleta Shrine, a shrine to the deity of the same name which is protected territory.

Banner and flag

The Rauratoshanian banner is the form of the Rauratoshanian flag presented ingame. The white chevron and spiral represent the sun and the land; the sun is said to be bathing the land in light, while the people on the land (the Rauratoshanians) are striving for the sun. The black stripes represents the work of the people, or more loosely, their blood. The blue stripes on either side represent the crown, who supports the people in turn.

Demographics

Rauratoshan is made up primarily of kanvas. Astaryuu approximates their unique morphology in Nguhcraft through the use of the Customizable Player Models mod. The majority of Rauratoshan's kanvas are of the Akuylian race, which typically have blue or cyan fur patterns, but all kanva races are present in Rauratoshan.

Languages

Rokadong is the only official language of Rauratoshan. Officially speaking, this means that Rokadong language classes are provided in Rauratoshanian schools. However, English and Spanish are "state-recognized languages."

For these state-recognized languages, language education is not mandatory, and neither is signage in the target language. However, businesses operating in Rauratoshan are expected to have English translation services, or plainly disclose that they do not offer such services.
