CONTINENTS:
Voraorite has nine natural continents and two man-made
continents, for a total of eleven continents. Out of these, four
are sky continents. Years listed are Newerth years, not
Voraoritan years.
[list]
[li]Axroa (natural continent)
A continent with three nations, though it used to have seven.
Zeroni, Xavios and Quirne are the current nations; Quirne
consists of Qurya, Ireona, Nouram and Einw�r.[/li]
[li]Beau'Czar (natural continent)
A continent with three nations, Vernisio, Treito and Unundenari.
The continent is where the first Voraoritan calendar was
created, consisting of two hundred fifty-five days in a year. It
is also where the first car was invented on the planet.[/li]
[li]Karjiu (natural sky continent)
A sky continent of some kind, with four nations. Perayosi has a
large brick wall surrounding the borders, with cannons firing
bricks at enemies. Zaruqua is famed for its school of archery;
archers from this nation have an impossibly good aim. Xrow (the
"X" is pronounced like a "sch" sound) is renowned for its school
of swordsmanship. However, in the center of the continent is a
rather miniscule nation that people don't even know exist
(usually), named We'izga'sen, where a magical gate can be found
that contains teleporters to other planets - inhabitable, or
otherwise.[/li]
[li]Occylit (natural continent)
A continent that has five nations: Shisukai, Aiharuto, Bellarai,
Cherisaro and Karos. In 2016, Shisukai was attacked by the
Eclumbri, who had used a chemical weapon; while the exact count
is unknown, there are few survivors. A mysterious ring was
enshrined here, but stolen by a mysterious sociopath who is
currently undocumented in Voraorite's keno book. The Flesh Zone
is found in Shisukai.[/li]
[li]Qu�sor�ra (natural sky continent)
A sky continent with three nations. Kamika was the nation where
chemical weapons were first invented; however, its ruler
attempted to have such things banished from Voraorite (and was
unsuccessful despite trying for at least seventy-seven years and
seven weeks). Byoroa was the nation that first named the
continents in the old Voraoritan tongue. Vor'Ite was the first
nation to wage war with another nation, in the year 123.[/li]
[li]Rhudesi� (man-made continent)
A man-made continent that had four nations in the past:
Eclumbria, Abcdea, Blomeria and Sanctuisa. However, in 1996, the
Eclumbri (plural unchanged) conquered the continent, renaming it
to Eclumbria. They wage war with the other nations of the world,
planning to conquer the world. They use chemical, biological,
radiological and nuclear weapons.[/li]
[li]Ryn (natural continent)
The smallest continent of the planet, with two nations: Rynas
and Jeyro. The continent is so small that there's only one city
per nation. A large desert lies in the center of the
island.[/li]
[li]Skaithundar (madman-made sky continent)
A floating continent created by a madman, with only two nations,
Jirm'ay'ne and Rivroa. These nations combined form a formidable
foe capable of fighting even Eclumbria to a standstill. Not bad
for a continent whose nations are mostly pacifists.[/li]
[li]Ukimara (natural continent)
A continent that has had six nations in the past, before
Eclumbria conquered most of it in 2002. The five nations, now
belonging to Eclumbria, were Diora, Furiayu, Helaios, Luminoa
and Mortrevia. The last nation that has not yet been captured is
the nation of Oxairjam, whose mightiest wizards and witches put
up a magical barrier to prevent anyone from entering or exiting�
with one weakness known thus far. Those who are permitted to
enter, however, have been given a spell that lets the caster
(and only the caster) teleport into the nation. Sadly, those who
possess anti-magic are unaffected by the barrier, so they can
just walk through it without being knocked back fifty feet, but
the Corpse Combat Corps stationed around the barrier makes short
work of them. Oxairjamese people are legally allowed to become
undead, provided they sign a special document that permits it
after death; necromancers who illegally raise corpses are
punished with death by life-draining magic, or being burned at
the stakes. (With steaks.)[/li]
[li]Yukronay (natural sky continent)
A floating continent with five nations: Confla, Aquario, Quakra,
Gaeliun and Voltiar. The inventors of airships on this planet
are from the Gaeliun nation. The five nations use shinobi and
kunoichi in war, usually equipped with state-of-the-art gear.
Although the nations aren't allied with each other, they are
allied with Shisukai, and in an emergency, the five nations will
team up, no matter how reluctantly, to protect their allies of
Shisukai.[/li]
[li]Za'Shi'Ro (natural continent)
A continent with four nations, known as Yozario, Tsukishi,
Arocha and Aquostruphy. The rulers of each nation are always
named "Yoshiro" or "Yoshirō" (Yozario), "Tsukiko"
(Tsukishi), "Aaron" (Arocha) and "Apostrophe" (Aquostruphy), for
some reason. The Voraoritan tongue is also used sometimes, with
names like "Yo'Shi'Ro"; this continent is currently the only
nation left that still uses the Voraoritan tongue as official
languages within their nations.[/li]

KENO BOOKS:
Keno books are books that contain a list of wanted criminals,
along with a bounty. Created in 1563, licensed ashigaru, ninja,
rōnin, samurai and sōhei in addition to high-ranking
witches and wizards, bounty hunters and royal soldiers, are
allowed to attack and capture these criminals. The bounty is
generally halved if the criminal is killed, though exceptions -
such as the psychotic serial killer Xeirio Quelziroro - do
exist.
(For the curious: Xeirio's bounty was equal to about 20� billion
yen, and was the highest bounty in the planet's history. Xeirio
had killed so many people that he was soon wanted "completely
and undeniably dead" rather than "dead or alive".)
[hr]
CURRENCY:
Each nation has its own currency; as there are numerous nations,
this thread will not detail the currencies. However, according
to world-renowned economist Sa'Di'Roth, "a global currency is
being introduced to make trade easier between nations with
differing currencies".
[hr]VORAORITAN LANGUAGES:
The ancient Voraoritan language, used centuries ago, is referred
to as the "Voraoritan tongue". The language consists of words
with apostrophes in them, something that can be seen in names
like "Za'Shi'Ro" ("za's" meaning "sun" and "hi'ro" meaning
"righteous") or "Ri'Seh'Ak" ("ri'se" meaning "maiden" and "h'ak"
meaning "kind"). "Yo's" means "son". "Beau'c" means "chronicle"
while "zar" means "sever". "We'i" means "white", "ga's" means
"sky". "Z" is used similar to the "-s" suffix of English words,
being in plural (so "ri'sez" would be "maidens"), while "en" is
used similar to the "-ed" suffix of English.
In names, the first letter at the start of the name and after an
apostrophe are capitalized. Similar to English, sentences always
start with the first letter of a word being capitalized;
however, the letters following an apostrophe are not similarly
capitalized. When pronounced, each syllable is pronounced
separately, where possible.
In 1829, the Voraoritan language fell out of use and English and
other languages began to take their place. Currently, the
nations of Aquostruphy, Arocha, Tsukishi and Yozario are the
only ones that still uses the language.
[hr]
MYTHOLOGY:
Voraoritan mythology states that a mysterious ring with evil
powers was enshrined in the nation of Shisukai. This ring is
said to grant the wearer the ability to command Tia and Mat,
daughters of the vile Iquaroxan phoenix Marshussu, with Tia and
Mat's markings appearing around the eyes. Tia and Mat were said
to have attacked, only to be sealed away by a single 7-year old
boy named Ri'Char'Dio Blom. Ri'Char'Dio's ancestors were tasked
with guarding this shrine. In 2016, Kousendia Blom (age 13) was
supposed to be guarding it, but for unknown reasons, she did
not.
