Roman Republic of Vedena

 * Government: Vedena is a Republic.
 * Caesar (Leader of the Council): Theodosius Abercius (1330-nowadays). Elected by adult male landowners.
 * Parliament: the Council with no actual factions present.
 * Grand Debate: Is the belief of Jesus Christ a sin that should be forbidden?  The question of Christianity and Jesus Christ has dominated the Romans faction since its very creation. From one hand, the radical leaders claim it was the following of Jesus Christ that destroyed Rome and its civilisation. On the other hands, the followers of Christ, mostly quite a popular "Loving Church of Jesus Church and his followers" that promotes "love and freedom over yourself from the hands of God", claim it was Jesus Christ who saved our planet from eternal destruction by sin and chaos it causes every day. By becoming a better person, one achieves inner peace and freedom over yourself and thus steps closer to God. Radical Roman Leaders: 74 Loving Church of Jesus Church and his followers: 326
 * Economy: mostly based on logging, agriculture, and trade.
 * 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.
 * Capitals: Lutsk and Chernobyl
 * Demographics (including occupied territories): 1'790k people
 * Rural areas:~1631k.
 * Urban areas: 159k; 9% live in urban areas.
 * Lutsk (and the nearest territories across it): 82k.
 * L'viv: 27k
 * Other (population over 2'500): 70k.
 * Culture: 55% are Vedean, 31% are Romans, 14% is the rest
 * Religion: 61% are Christians (6% are Orthodox, 9% are Catholic, 15% Loving Church of Jesus Church and his followers, 31% are local churches), 5% are Judaist, 23% are Roman pagans, 11% are the rest beliefs.
 * Wars and Conflicts:
 * Diplomacy: -
 * Military:
 * 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: ~16'000
 * 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.
 * We have no time left to wait, it is finally time to act! Merchants were not who built our nation, it was the loggers and thinkers. With the new threats appearing out of nowhere, it is perhaps time to replace the old rule with new breath of fresh air. In 1330, Theodosius Abercius, a prominent general and proud Roman, altogether with his army and radicalised Romans faction, took over the Council and established a new rule on the realms of Vedena. Lutsk will be the Third Rome again and this idea will not fail miserably as it did back then.
 * 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.
 * the Plague: the Plague has damaged us heavily, but mostly the urban areas and densely populated rural regions, whereas the south (lands populated by the Romans) have taken almost no damage at all.
