Roman Republic of Vedena

 * Trade unions: the traders of Lutsk, L'viv, and other major centres still run merchant guilds in each of the cities although the ones that were operated by factions of the Council got shut down.
 * New coinage: since the new people changed the order, a new coinage system, similar to the one in the ancient Roman empire, has been implemented.

 * Feudal armies: the sizes of feudal and mercenary armies are growing stable as a result of the gradual development of the feudal system.
 * Army size: ~25'000 (at high expense): 18'000 are sent to battle the Golden Horde
 * Events:
 * Crimson renaissance: the styles and themes in art have slightly changed since the Daevite entered our realms. Although the crimson and dark colours are still present, it is notable that the aesthetics of ancient sculpture has been brought to life yet again. Furthermore, sculpture has almost completely replaced painting as the dominating visual art branch and instead of marble, wood is used. In addition, the Plague fueled up the depressed nihilistic mood of art in Vedena.
 * Third Rome (electric boogaloo): We have been told lies for too long by the urban cowards in the Council. It is time to break the dome we have lived under for past centuries and embrace the truth: we are not Vedenians, but the descendants of Rome and it is our destiny to build a new Rome on the new lands, as our founding fathers originally intended. Lutsk will be the Third Rome again and this idea will not fail miserably as it did back then.
 * the Plague: Vedena was hit by the Plague earlier than the rest of Europe. Nowadays, it is almost gone. However, the changes caused by this occurrence are irreversible. Lutsk, L'viv and densely populated areas nearby these cities suffered the most in spite of the advanced urban system being present. On the other hand, barely any Vedenian Romans died of the Plague during this period of time.
 * Minsk and new Chernobyl: the newly acquired territories of Chernihiv and Volyn' (not Vedena as Volyn' but the country situated north to it) have never been densely populated and were lucky not to be hit heavily by the Plague. A lot of Vedenian Romans moved to the northern insulated world. In the centre of this region a new city emerged - Minsk. Soon it was proclaimed to be the third (north) capital of Vedena - as an addition to the original capital (Lutsk), and eastern capital (Chernobyl). What's more, the old city of Chernobyl has been repopulated by the Roman colonists and now operates as the eastern capital of Vedena once again.
