Name: The People's Republic of Osgalethe (Just called Osgalethe to shorten the name)
Leaders: High Elder Ardithitine Arden Urzka (an elf)
Population: 420,000 (More If Osgalethe would count the vast amount of slaves it has if it did it would be 520,000)
Location: South of Sorusian Empire in what Is and was The Philippines
Races: Dwarves( counted as 30% of the population), Elves (Counted as 10% of the population), Humans (consisting of 40% of the population), and Te*can( Large intelligent men with wings that make up 20% of the population.
Capital: Osgathosse, It is known as the City of White Towers, Built inside a meteor crater, It is the most defensible city on any of the 220 Islands that make up the "Republic" (I'll explain why the word Republic in quotation marks soon) population: 80,000 people
Government: Though Osgalethe is referred to as a "republic" In practice, Osgalethe is in fact a massive oligarchy, Governed by 73 individuals( The High Elder and 72 Elders) known as the Eldrancy. Which convenes in the Sienic Hall in the Osgathossian District of Palye. These people hold their positions for life, and what they say goes. So in other words,, the people got passed over, once again by tyranny. Any elder in the Eldrancy can pass a law just by decreeing it publicly. The High Elder is in charge of the military, the Elders in charge of providing for the military.
Economy: Osgalethe only has one resource besides water, the metal Nickel This leaves Osgalethe in a rather weak state resourcefully, Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

* continued*
It is extremely isolated from the rest of Karrus. it prefers isolation. Osgalethe uses a form of Currency known as the Osga. It is a square shaped coin made from onyx and bears the image of the Sienic Hall on the front side, the back side has no emblem.
Military: Defensive Army: 70,000
Offensive Army: 20,000
Outposts and forts: 800
Navy:
Triremes: 120
biremes: 125
Swimmer Saboteurs: 20,000
Why is Osgalethe so isolated you ask? Surrounding the Islands are 8,000 barrier Islands that are closely packed together, These Reefs make getting to, or leaving the islands extremely dangerous. At any moment a ship can crash into a reef and sink, or get stuck. Osgalethans rely on the Teccans to conduct trade with the other nations
Support: 3,100 Terrigian Hashmeets (Elite Master Assassins)
The Malcon Draconis: The Osgalethe's Shadow Army, made up exclusively of slaves
numbers unknown.
Religion: The Chief God of Osgalethe is called "Signar" God of Humor.
Along with any resources the Teccans bring home, Osgalethe has picked up many religions and treats each religion with respect, even going so far as to build the temples for any converts, But Most Worship Signar,
Culture: Osgalethe's places such an emphasis on "Finding humor in all things" And as such, makes fun of everything and everyone. There is a definite emphasis on patience it is reflected in their sculptures and paintings. There is an emphasis on honor, but their version of honor is far different than most versions. essentially it means "Do the right thing" How this interpreted, along with its connection to the Slave trade is what gives Osgalethe a bad reputation. swindling double-crossing merchants, hanging beligerant and offensive emissaries of other nations, is seen as "the right thing"
It believes in the purity of the body, as such. Osgalethans while on Osgalethe are sometimes seen **** outdoors. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!

History: Osgalethe's discovery was an accident. A castaway sailor washed ashore the Islands, near death and was nursed back to health. With the help of the Elves, this Sailor made his way back, where he told the world of the discovery. Soon immigrants from all over the world came to settle on the islands. This marked the end of an era for the natives. Most of them died to disease. But a diverse culture was created. The native elves were, of course the original settlers. Exiled Dormoorian Dwarves came to the Islands hoping to strike it rich and live lavishly, Humans came to escape the Opression of their homelands. The Teccans were only discovered recently, and it is unknown why they came here. This created a diverse melting pot of cultures, and eventually, the original cultural identities of these people died. They were Osgalethans. Osgalethe means, Ironically "Fatal Chill" in the Te*can Native language. Osgalethe once tried to invade several nations to the east, with disastrous results After these failed conquests It was sacked time and time again by bandits and pirate miners of these nations for Nickel. Osgalethe had no way of defending itself from invaders ( it only took longer for the invader to get there). Because of its failed expansionary period Osgalethe incurred a large debt rather quickly: It owed 10 billion Gold Pieces, Osgalethe could not pay off the debt and so revived the slave trade it used to speak out against. Over the last 200 years, Osgalethe has payed off it's debt, But the slave trade is the dominant economy of Osgalethe and is kept around out of a sense of greed among the Eldrancy. Osgalethe has made requests to trade with several nations. The Eldrancy has existed since the Country's founding, though at one point it was far more democratic. The current Eldrancy is mired in gridlock, nothing ever gets done, Elders counter other laws of other elders with impunity. It is only with the threat of military invasion

that the country gets it's act together. Osgalethe is a pariah among nations.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the Osgalethan people is that so many of them become jesters and clowns, it just suits their culture. Of the Osgalethan people, many labor under the idea that all Osgalethans are jesters or clowns. But many also believe that secretly these jesters and clowns are also slavers and slave traders.
Despite the natural defenses of Osgalethe, It becomes apparent that Osgalethe can only wage a defensive war effectively. A conquest would end horribly badly for Osgalethe.
Defensively, It is incredibly versatile. Offensively, It's military is the laughing stock of the world, Perhaps this is what Osgalethe intended, as it seeks to find humor in all things. And as such Osgalethe stays for the most part neutral in all matters. besides no nation would want to be allies with Osgalethe in war. Osgalethe has no problem in sinking allies along with enemies if the opportunity presents itself.
Osgalethe is extremely volcanic, and is also sitting on a volcanic hotspot, The volcano Mount Syanthine Infatallis continuously spews out lava off the coast of Ogalethe Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy!
