Despite its proximity to the lands of the Moot and the Stronghold of Zhufbar, Halflings and Dwarfs are virtually nonexistent there. Technologically, the land lags behind the rest of the Empire in terms of proper infrastrature and even the barest levels of education, where the commonfolk of Sylvania are still a highly superstitious lot that is still treating gunpowder as a new frightening technological marvel. The emergent middle class of the Empire scarcely exists here, and an unbridgeable gap between the peasantry and the nobility persists, one that out shadows those within the lands of even Bretonnia. But perhaps the greatest feature about this backwater region of the Old World is that it is considered the rightful domains of the Vampire Counts of the Von Carstein bloodline.

  • Much has been told of how, at the end of The War of God, the supernatural folk were gradually dying.

This it is a story of tears, betrayal and shattered dreams. The end of fairy tales.

abstract
  • The first major expansion by the British founded nation of Sylvania included the anexation of the Chinese territory in 1902 which added roughly 7,200 square kilometers to the nation. As a result, Chinese was quickly adopted as a secondary language next to English. The nation wouldn't see its next expansion until 1918 when it obtained both the Spanish and American territories. The anexation of Spanish and American territories added over 1,500 square kilometers to the nation. By 1934 the French and German terrirories were annexed to Sylvania which now covered the entire islnd. The French territory, the smallest of any territory on the island, was on a small island inside of a cove on the Southern part of the nation. This territory would eventually become the Sylvanian Military Base.

  • Sylvania (officially named the State of Sylvania) is the largest and most economically powerful Lovian state. The state consists of the north eastern part of Peace Island and the small Discovery Isle, located in the Discovery Bay. The capital of the state is also the national capital, Noble City acts as the seat of most important government institutions. According to the Köppen climate classification, Sylvania has a warm summer Mediterranean climate similar to parts of western California and Galicia in Spain. Sylvania shares its borders with Oceana, this border runs along the Beaver River and across the Emerald Highlands. Sylvania was founded as a State in 1905 when the Declaration of the Founding of Lovian States was signed by the King, prior to that its land was divided up between The Pale and the Bostaat Confederation. Sylvania largely throughout history was at odds with the other States due to most Monarchs favouring it over the others, this changed in 1938 however when Queen Lucy I of Lovia enacted democratic reforms in favour of the four other States. This eventually settled most political problems and soon Sylvania competed solely economically. After the recent financial crisis Sylvania has faced unemployment and large amounts of dissent, although the Governor and Deputy are working to fix this. Sylvania is governed by three branches of the State Government. The Sylvanian Government which is composed of the Governor, Deputy and their assistants which acts as an executive, the Sylvanian State Council which is composed of the Council of Representatives and the Senate and the Sylvanian Judge which is the State Judge and their assistants who acts as the keeper of all Sylvanian Law however due to legal issues are not allowed to hold courts or trials. Sylvania is the only State to have its own constitution and form of citizenship (the Sylvanian Residency). Due to the factors of early immigration and investment, Sylvania has always been economically powerful although is stronger today in comparison to the other States than it had been in the past. Sylvania hosts almost all financial services available in Lovia and is known for its powerful manufacturing and trade capabilities. Transportation in Sylvania is also extremely developed with a focus on rail and water transport. However the economy of Sylvania is considered by many to be monopolised and various Governors have tried and failed to deal with this issue to date.
  • Geographically, Sylvania is divided into two traditional divisions: Prosylvania (the northern provinces) and Sylvania proper (the southern provinces). These are subdivided into macroadministrative regions: in the north, Prosylvania and Rhododassa, and in the south, West Sylvania and East Sylvania. Prosylvania consists of two provinces: East and West. In the West, one finds the following districts: District 8, Throne, Toucan, Barker, West Prosylvania, Monopatia, Perkinia, Turtle, Spider, Northern Fort, Northern Crossroads, and Garden of Invasive Species. In East Prosylvania one finds District 9, District 30, Kinaea, the Lengths of Kinaea, and the National Lawn. Rhododassa is its own province and consists of the following districts (East-West): Avenue, Deadwood, Seaweed, Promuria, and Pillar. West Sylvania consists of the regions of the National Garden and Region G, as well as the Province of West Sylvania which is divided into districts numbered from 1 to 7. East Sylvania is made of districts numbered from 16 to 25 in order of their discovery. District 32 and South Sylvania are not claimed by the Principality-Governorate.
