Etymology
The name Emberland is an English translation of the local name, where the nation is referred to as . . . /ə ə ə/ in the local language of . . /ə ə/ (Literally meaning ‘voice idea’). The local name ‘. . .’ literally means ‘ground fire place’.
History
A group of people, from unknown origin, later referred to as the ‘fire path people’, arrived at the location that would become the capital settlement of Flamepoint (. .). These people would build a collection of small mud buildings surrounding a large flame pit, which would become the namesake of the Campfire Council
Government
While The Democratic State of Emberland may refer to itself as democratic, it is widely considered to be an extremely undemocratic state, and this is explicitly stated by the Front for a Democratic Emberland, with only a figurehead democratic system.
The real power lies in the position of Sovereign, and whoever may hold that title has complete control over the nation. The current, and first, Sovereign is probablynotacriminal. This position is an unelected title, with the successor being decided by the current Sovereign.
The Democratic system still technically exists in the form of the Campfire Council, however every action they make must be explicitly approved by the Sovereign, who can deny any and all actions. All members of the council are elected, however the Sovereign may deny any person from gaining their seat, and can replace them with whomever they want.
