The Kingdom of Vinland is a directly democratic constitutional monarchy on the central edge of (++) bordering Okashima to the East, Falstadt to the south and the enclave of Antonos in the Vinnish sea. The majority of the population live in the capital city; Hvalsey, though a substantial number live in farming and fishing villages concentrated on Skogsdalen's innumerable fjords.


Working your way towards citizenship is greatly recommended as it will give you several perks. You will be allowed to build in Hvalsey without a permit (However do try to stick to the building style) you can propose votes and you will get full access to the shared resource pool which you won't have as a resident (although residents can ask citizens for resources)
=== History ===


A resident can attain citizenship by having a current citizen call for a vote on their behalf. Being active for a week or two and contributing to resource gathering/public works and other activities of benefit to the community, will greatly increase a resident's chance of becoming a citizen.
=== Geography ===


=== Politics ===
Vinland is a very mountainous and heavily forested country, it's capital is among the highest in the world despite it's proximity to the sea which has prohibited the construction of an industrial dockland prior to the plans to build a funicular railway in 2018. A unique quirk of this means that the city is frequently blanketed by slow-moving fog blown in from the nearby Okashiman coast. Skogsdalen also possesses many interlinking fjords, which have become havens for coastal fishing communities and the pirates who prey on them.


All people permanently residing in Vinland fall into two categories, the most common being residents; those granted the right to reside in Vinland on a permanent basis but don't contribute to the state, or have access to public services nor suffrage. Citizens; residents who have lived in Vinland for a significant amount of time and contribute to the upkeep of the nation and are therefore entitled to public services and participate in elections.
Vinland also lays claim to several islands both in the Vinnish sea and lake Quatuor, most of which are uninhabited although Helaö, Muspelheim and Lerhöj all have fishing communities not too dissimilar to those of ancient times.


Residents can put themselves forward to have a vote for them to become citizen.
=== Politics ===


Vinland is a constitutional monarchy with Auctorus serving as the current King. The role of the King is purely ceremonial. Both internal and external affairs are handled collectively by inhabitants of Vinland. The typical way this is done is that a Citizens puts forward a proposal wereafter both Citizens and Residents debate and vote on that proposal. Vinland emphasises direct democracy and has no official representatives, citizens are appointed by their peers to fulfill certain roles when needed, such as foreign affairs or head of the millitary.
Although still officially an absolute monarchy, Vinland is a defacto constitutional monarchy possessing an elected assembly who are voted by Vinlandic citizens for terms up to 12 months and convene in the citadel on a semi-regular basis to discuss national policy. All people permanently residing in Vinland fall into two categories, the most common being residents; those granted the right to reside in Vinland on a permanent basis but don't contribute to the state, or have access to public services nor suffrage. Citizens; residents who have lived in Vinland for a significant amount of time and contribute to the upkeep of the nation and are therefore entitled to public services and participate in elections.

The main Vinlandic political parties are the Vinlandic Socialist Party, whom comprise of leftist, republican- orientated supporters who prioritise public service spending, higher taxes and a pacifistic foreign policy and the Vinland Monarchist Party; comprising mostly of royalist conservatives who argue for lower taxes, lower public spending and greater sovereignty through perusing a more aggressive foreign policy.
