Republic of Vedena

 * Government: Vedena is run by the Governor and the Senate, which are elected every 8 (sometimes 6) years by adult male landowners. The Senate is quite stratified and each social class tries to achieve the majority and leadership in it.
 * Governor: Milo Vlaev the Librarian (572AD-586AD), Tomo Horak (586AD-594AD), Rostik Shalamov (594AD-now)
 * Senate:
 * Merchants: 104
 * Nobility: 135
 * "Librarians": 19
 * Religious: 65
 * Economy: Based on logging, agriculture, deep mining, and trade.
 * The ever-growing number of landownerships: Because of our appealing immigration policy, the number of landowners is growing dramatically in different regions of Vedena, but usually across Lutsk.
 * The ever-growing amount of trade: Ancient Vedena was founded by merchants. The amount of trade and, respectively, the influence of the merchants as a cast has slightly increased last decades and doesn't seem to stop expanding.
 * Capital: Lutsk.
 * Demographics: 363'100 people
 * Rural areas:~209'600.
 * Biggest settlements: 153'400; 42.2% live in urban areas.
 * Lutsk (and the nearest territories across it):100'300.
 * Mukachevo: 12'800.
 * Ivanyvsk': 9'400.
 * Other (population less than 1000): 30'900.
 * Ethnicities: 52% are Volynians, 15% are Romans, 13% are the nomadic tribes, 20% is the rest (Greeks, Dacians, etc.).
 * Religion: 73% are Judaist/Christians, 20% are Vedenian pagans, 7% are the rest beliefs (Illyrican, Bonra, and other pagans).
 * Military: Due to the threat of invasion of the barbarians, we have to focus on military build-up.
 * Swordsmen and crossbowmen: 20'000.
 * City guards: 36'000.
 * Cavalry: 8'000
 * Feudal armies: Nowadays, the strongest of the nobility have their own, yet little (for now), armies, which may help us halt the barbaric invasion from the north.
 * Big standing army: In order to be protected from the barbarians, we have to have a standing army. Thus, a lot of new city guards, swordmen and crossbowmen were recruited. Unfortunately, it cripples out budget a little.
 * War with the invaders: Even though the invaders are heading into our lands, it is us who were born here, not them. We hire the best military strategists and create the war plan to defend our mainland (Lutsk and the settlements near it)
 * Navy: 420 little trade vessels, 50 medium ones.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Roma Centrum: We beg Roma Centrum for help in the fight against barbarians.
 * Events:
 * The Lutsk Wall: Accounting for the fact Lutsk was violently obliterated last time, Varban Karpov, and later Milo Vlaev commissioned the construction of a big wall across Lutsk in order to protect it from possible invasions. It is said to be one of the greatest walls in lands of the former Roman Empire. Will it save Vedena from future invasions? Time will tell!
 * Current features of Vedena: 
 * The restoration of Lutsk: Since we have returned to our ancient lands, we started rebuilding the former capital, Lutsk. It was known to be one of the greatest cities of all times and it is growing at incredible rates nowadays.
 * Ever-growing landownership: Our immigration policy is providing new immigration with enough lands as their private property to self-sustain so that more and more people settle the territories. It attracts a lot of people across neighbouring regions and countries.
