Line 24:
The name 'Arcadia' comes from the Kogongi word 'Arkhat' meaning 'land that has sun on both sides' due to how the sun could be seen rising and setting on the ocean from the peninsula. From there the word was picked up by Kogongi fisher men who used it to describe the peninsula, a hot spot for fishermen from all over the surrounding area to rest, causing the word to interchange with other cultures to a point where it eventually came to be pronounced as 'Arkada' and it came to mean 'view of the rising and setting sun'. Once settlement came to 'Arkada', the people of nearby Kais Kogong began to refer to the area as 'Arcadia' or 'land of the rising and setting sun'.
== Geography ==▼
The vast majority of Arcadia is located on the aptly titled 'Arcadian' peninsula, whilst a small area to the south is within the holy Kogongi forests. The peninsula itself could be described as a barren and flat coastal grassland with small caves found in the south along with a handful of small ponds. The land possessed by the Altanate in the Kogongi forests are hilly with tough rock found only a few feet below the surface as well as a few small ponds.▼
===Ecology===▼
Little plant life besides small shrubs, tall grass, Cacti, and a very small amount of oak trees are truly native to the Arcadian peninsula. Many species were brought in from other lands nearby such as Gausha, where Acacia saplings were found and then brought back where they would go on to be a very popular plant amongst the people of [https://alathramc.miraheze.org/wiki/Wahat_Almarjan Wahat Almarjan]. Bamboo was also imported, however; it is not known from where it came but scholars believe it may have come from the jungles of nearby Prospit. A number of different flowers can also be found, it is believed the vast majority of them are not native besides the rose bushes and oxeye Daisies. In the South, the land is dotted by mainly dark oak trees, mushroom trees, and a few Birch trees, all of which are connected to a larger forest within the borders of [https://alathramc.miraheze.org/wiki/Kogongu Kogongu]. The fauna of modern day Arcadia is quite diverse but this is mostly thanks to creatures being imported from other lands. It is believed that the only animals that originally inhabited the peninsula were sheep, chickens, and horses. Cows and pigs can now be found roaming around Arcadian lands and have managed to fit in well with the various species native to the area. ▼
==Politics==
Line 39 ⟶ 44:
On top of these rules, the Altan also employs a loose system known as 'The Euro System' named after the famous Arcadian hero, Euro Johnson. The system is meant to keep citizens in line and also give reward for doing good deeds. When a citizen does one good deed, the Altan will judge the value of that deed and then give an appropriate number of 'Euro Points' to that citizen for their work. Once one meets the goal of 64 Euro Points, the Altan will reward that citizen handsomely. These 'Euro Points' come in the form of 'golden coins' and cannot be used as currency as doing so is strictly prohibited.
===Foreign Relations===
Line 48 ⟶ 52:
By far, Arcadia's closest ally would have to be Atolia. The two nations have been conversing greatly and are now working on a large infrastructure project together to help better connect the two's capital cities.
