Overview

***
Myroria is a country in the region of Vorlon. The local form used most often is just Myroria. The full name is "The Aristocratic Imperium of Myroria." The country was created by William Guuy. Guuy started the first dynasty, and his beliefs and ideals have carried on to the modern twenty-fourth dynasty.

Main Exports & Imports
***
The three main exports of Myroria are mahogany, which grows plenty in the southern rainforest, ivory, from Walrus tusks in the NordTaiga, and haddock. When there is a surplus of crops, those are a thriving business. Most everything else is, unfortunately, imported from various colonies and other countries.

The Myrorian People
***
Their Background
Myrorians are largely Belgian and German in their ancestry, with most people immigrants from those countries. Most native European Myrorians were descended from medeval nomadic tribes in the south of Germany.

Their Personality
Myrorians are very satiric and dark in their humor, and enjoy poking fun at other people's, especially foreigner's, misfortunes. Though Myrorians regularly poke fun at each other, this is taken in much better than if a foreigner made a joke. They are rather xenophobic, and first-generation immigrants will often find it very hard to earn the trust of his new countrymen.

Language and Religion
***
The most often used language in Myroria is German, with English following as a close second. The largest religion is by far, Roman Catholic, with Muslim second, then Atheism as a third. Attending school is mandatory for all students above 5 years old. The legal age of dropping out is 17, though few actually choose to.

Wars and Military
***
After a short period of instablility with the monarch Marcica I, Myroria declared neutrality, only sending economic and humanitarian aid to her allies.

The military numbers are as follows:
Men and women trained to fight: 180,000
Men and women in other military jobs: 90,000
Men and women in armed forces: 270,000
Airplanes: 500
Helicopters: 300
Nuclear Warheads: 0


Soldier's Uniform
The typical Myrorian soldier's Uniform is modeled after the British "redcoat" uniform and consists of the following:


A dark red overcoat.
An ivory colored undercoat, with gold buttons.
Ivory colored pants, with the foot cuff embedded with gold leaf.
Black boots.
A musket (only used during burying services)
Occasionally, a shako.

The economy in Myroria is very good, with the minimum wage being 10 deutsche marks per hour. Myroria is capitalizt, and communist and socialist countries viewed with suspicion. Income Tax has been abolished. The Myrorian Governmental Initiative has taken up most government duties.

Crime is no longer a problem, since the death penalty has been reintroduced.

History
***
In about 1236 A.D., William Guuy united nomatic tribes in what is now Germany and split from it. Electing himself king, he began the first dynasty, which lasted about 70 years. When the Kingdom of Germany repeatedly attempted to take Myroria, the country was ravaged by murdering, raping, enslaving barbarians. This continued until the thirty-ninth year of the 20th century, when Nazis from Germany to the north annexed Myroria to them. After the Nazis were defeated, Myroria was occupied by forces from the allies. After this, Parliament voted for Myroria to move to the region of Vorlon. On March 22 of 2006, Myroria became a vassal state of The Islamic Republic of Arab Sovereign States. After about three months, and two conquerings later, Arab Sovereign States was occupied, and it's vassals freed. The Second Golden Age is said to have begun at this point.

Politics
***
Myroria is an absolute monarchy, but the monarch does have a large amount of power. Parliament was disbanded after Fredrika came to power, calling it too corrupt. According to the Crown, it will be reformed once more trustworthy members are selected.

Major Cities and Businesses
***
The largest city is Novrith, a major sea port. The city with the most independant businesses is Quarrovth, the capital. The largest communication company is Myrorian Communications Incorporated, or MCI. A large corporation helps run the country called The Myrorian Governmental Initiative, run by the power-hungry Alvar Hanso, a controversial figure because of his foreign background.

Provinces
***
The provinces of Myroria are Nordtaiga, meaning North Taiga. It is lightly populated, and is famous around the world for it ski resorts. The Western Province is called Zivilisierter Westen, or Civilized West. The capital of Quarrovth is here, and it is the most populated. It is the only province on the ocean. The Southern Province, or Land der Eingeborenen, is mostly rainforest, and is home to the Myrorian Natives, or Tyrolese as they call themselves. The Eastern Desert, or Östliches Ödland, is desert, and is home to only one major city.

Climate of the Provinces
***
In the cold north province, the summer temperature rarely gets above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. In the densely populated west province, the climate is temperate and July temperatures is typically 75 degrees Fahrenheit. In the south province, the wet rainforests temperature in summer is typically 90 degrees Fahrenheit in the shade.

Music
***
Myrorians are famous for their love of music, baroque especially. Waltzing is very popular, though there is a fair amount of Americanization, and 60's rock in particular is becoming popular.

Architecture
***
The main architecture type used in Myroria is the Rococo style, which is different from other Roman Catholic states, as the Church shuns it for it's unearthlyness and flamboyancy. Most tourists will find a huge similarity between Myroria and Austria or Belgium.
