    The Kingdom of Celtica
    
    
    Government type: Absolute Monarchy

    Overview of Kingdom: The Kingdom of Celtica is surrounded by four neighboring Kingdoms or Empires with an Atlantic Ocean bordering peninsula. It’s in what would be considered present day Middle France and Switzerland. Celtica borders the Kingdom of Italy against the Lepontine, and Pennine Alps to the west. The Northern part of the Kingdom is bordered by the British Empire’s attempt to invade Celtica 30 years ago, and Magna Germania. The western part of the border is the Celtic Peninsula (Modern Day, Brittany)
    
    
    Most of Celtica's land is flat with some hills until you reach the western border with the Kingdom of Italy where mountains are. As well as the southern border with the Okeryn Empire, there are plenty of mountainous ranges in that area until the coastline. This means that the Celtica empire has a plentiful amount of farm land available to use, as well as other resources like Timber.

    History: After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD the small land of Celts was formed in the Celtic Peninsula. (Modern Day, Brittany) This small piece of land was bordered by by the larger Land of Syagrius. Not much happened under the new ruling of King Edgar Celtic but when Edgar Celtic died, the new King, Alexander Boulle I, took the throne with big plans to expand their small empire into a Kingdom. With some effort of trying, the Celts invaded the Land of Syagrius and succeeded in taking control of the land.
    
    
    The Celts did not stop there after the overthrowing of the Syagrius leader. The Celts moved into the Kingdom of Burgundy to overthrow their leader. At this time a Civil war in the Kingdom of Visigoths allowed for the northern half of the Kingdom to annex into the Land of the Celts. Once the leader of the Kingdom of Burgundy was overthrown the Land of Celts became the Kingdom of Celtica as King Alexander Boulle II rose to power.
    
    
    Only a few years after the northern Kingdom of Visgoths annexed into the Kingdom of Celtica a protest broke out in the southern region of the Kingdom which soon prompted the separation of the southern section of the Kingdom and the Okeryn Empire was created in it's place.
    
    
    During King Boulle II's leadership, the Anglo-saxons (Now know as the British Empire) Stormed into the Kingdom of Celtic's Northern coastline without a trace until they hit a upper city of the area and the fighting began. The Celts were equally matched to the Anglo-Saxon army, and a truce was made, as well as an alliance and the Anglo-saxons kept the land they took control of.

    The Okeryn Empire
    
    
    Government type: Absolute Monarchy

    Overview of Kingdom: The Okeryn Empire controls what would be southern present day France. It borders along the Pyrenees Mountains to the south (Present Day, France and Spain border) and the Cottain, Maritime, and Ligurian Alps to the west that connects the Kingdom of Italy to the Okeryn Empire. Its Northern Border is completely sided with the Kingdom of Celtica and its Eastern border is the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean.
    
    
    The Okeryn Empire's land is much different to that of the Celtica Kingdom. It's mostly mountainous until the coastal borders. This means that there is not that much farm land available to the Okeryn Empire, and with the growing demand of people within the empire the need grew beyond that of what they can afford.

    Rival: British Empire, Kingdom of Celtica
    
    
    History: The Okeryn empire formed from those that did not want to be apart of the Celtica Kingdom. The land they fought for was mostly mountainous, but they still wanted to keep their borders strong after the civil war that lead to the fall of the Visgoths Kingdom. The Okeryn Empire had a high birthrate to deathrate, and within 334 Years of being an empire they began to have resource issues mostly revolving around the food. With mountainous areas, and needed room for cities they had too small of a land owned and began to overcrowd their population. Thus this lead to the war again the Celtica Kingdom.

  While we are talking about an undeveloped European continent and that means it has to be set way far back in the past... It doesn't mean technology isn't advanced at all. In this RP, you will be granted to have weapons of higher grade, but not too high. I wanted the roleplay to feel modern, but still be in the past to have an epic roleplay feel, but I didn't want to make it TOO modern to where it didn't feel like it was still in the past. I am going to be specific about what weapons will be allowed or disallowed for just the sake of keeping arguments at bay...
  
  
  Spoiler

  The Weapons that will be allowed within this roleplay will be from the American Civil War. Any Weapon that is listed within that link is open to be used! (Artillery Section is disallowed, as well as Heavy Weapons)
  
  
  Along with Civil War Era weaponry, you are allowed to use the Medieval style of weapons such as Bow and Arrows, and Swords. Along with this, you are also granted to use Crossbows for your character!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  There are Weapons that I am disallowing within the roleplay...
  
  
  Anything Explosive is not allowed unless it involves a Medieval Cannon or catapult.
  
  
  If you shoot an arrow at a barrel of gunpowder and it explodes... it is allowed, but you can NOT drop a flaming barrel of gunpowder at the enemy.
  
  
  Anything Post-American Civil War is not allowed to be used as a weapon.
  
  
  Other than that, every other weapon that is currently unlisted is more than likely not allowed, BUT do not discourage to ask me if a certain weapon could be used!
