The Holy Truidencian Empire (Norwegian, Hellige Trudensiske Rike/Heilage Trydensiske Rike, Latvian: Svētā Trūdencijas Impērija, Faroese: Heilaga Ríkið Trýdensia) , commonly known as Truidencia, HTE and (the now incorrect abbreviation) IT like its predecessors, is the direct successor to the iterations of Imperial Truidence through the ages, namely The Second Truidencian Empire (CivClassic with Obtainable Spatula as Emperor), the brief Third Truidencian Empire (Devoted Hell), and The First Truidencian Empire (CivClassic with Bez as Emperor).

Almost every core member from the end of CivClassic, with the addition of some other established players, will aid in the founding of the Holy Truidencian Empire.

Political System

The Truidencian political system is characterized by its three entities of legislative power: The elected Landsraad, The Riksraad and The Emperor. At the start of each month elections for Landsraad representatives are held, where any citizen may run for office. The landsraad’s primary purpose is proposing new laws and voting on internal issues that may arise. The Landsraad's decisions may however be vetoed by The Emperor, should he deem it absolutely necessary. The Landsraad might also in practice be overruled by The Riksraad, since its members may vote in both The Landsraad and The Riksraad, although this may change once prominant politicians arise.

The names "Riksraad" and "Landsraad" are both of scandinavian origin. Their conception as institutions of Truidencia were inspired by the Dune universe's imperial Landsraad and the historic aristocratic councils known as "Riksråd" that came to be in late-medieval scandinavia. Landsråd means "council of the land" and in turn "people", while Riksråd means "council of the realm", it can also be translated into "imperial/royal council". The letter Å was decided to be written as a double A to make it so that people not familiar with the letter Å would not get too confused and alienated while still retaining its foreign nature. While this leads people to pronounce their names incorrectly without knowing any better, it was deemed a necessary compromise.

No polticial parties have officially been established as of yet. The houses are at peace.

Pan-Truidencianism

There is a wish for them to eventually "return home" or make their current home a part of Truidencia itself. This movement was named "Pan-Truidencianism", the uniting of all truidencian peoples.

History of The Empire

History is yet to be written. The pen lies ready on the parchment, waiting.

Troubled Beginnings

.

National Policy

The internal practices of the empire.

Flag Laws

National Flags

The Truidencian "State Flag" may only be flown by the government or with permission from the government, while the "Civil Flag" may be flown by anyone.

• The National Flags
• 

  "The State Flag / Statsflagget" which serves as the symbol of the government

• 

  The Civil Flag of Truidencia.

• 

  Template for Colonial Flags. May be used as merchant flags on sea/air vessels.

• 

  Unofficial flag of the monarchy

• 

  The flag for truidencian military installations

Illegal Flags

Officially there are no constitutional laws dictating whether or not certain flags are allowed to be flown or owned, besides the national flags.

Republican Flags

Despite this it has been the policy of Emperor Zeldronix to discourage the usage of so called "Republican flags" commonly associated with the once proposed "Bezland Commonwealth", and the name "Republican Truidence" which was a joke on the name Imperial Truidence, along with various variations of "Bezland". These flags generally consisted of a horisontal tricolour with the colours red, yellow and white, starting from the top, sometimes with a blue cross saltire.

Imperial Truidence

Yes indeed, the flag of the First, Second and Third Empire are forbidden by imperial decree, seen by the emperor as a symbol of reactionary elements of the nation and disaproval of his ascension to the throne.

Economic System

The Empire's economic system as conceptualized by Icyski is based on a theory of an economy where all members of society are encouraged to contribute to the nation’s internal flow of materials, goods and capital via "missions" and "quests" to aquire materials and items of varying degree of complexity. These are made available by the government are all paid upon completion with the empire's own national currency known as "Imperial Crowns", which can be used as legal tender within the empire.

Much of the point of the system is to reduce the pursuit of mining diamonds for the sole purpus of using it as currency when it could be used for better means, such as for tools and reinforcements, thus allowing more time to be spent persuing other and potentially more valuable goals that benefit the nation instead.

Miscellaneous Information

• There is no official way of pronouncing "Truidencia". For example the first "I" is often left unpronounced and the ending "cia" has been known to be pronounced in various ways.
• To some degree there is also no official spelling of Truidencia either.
• The Emperor/Empress and their successors has traditionally been required to be Norwegian.
• The title of Truidencian Emperor/Empress is not hereditary.

Religion

Bezism

Bezism is the official and state religion of Truidencia, no other religion is allowed. Ever after Emperor Bez committed sudoku and ascended from this mortal coil the religion has been entrenched in truidencian society. The current pontifex of Bezism is GenericLaqey.
