Umoric Confederation (former) | Daevite Empire (now)

 * Government: A tribal confederation, comprising of many families, their control over territory is decentralised, meaning Umor does not own this land due to nomadic lifestyles, but they control it as if it were part of an empire. The Daevite Empire is born, but that empire will not last for the next 100 years.
 * Matriarchs:
 * Chav (398 AD-422 AD)
 * Attilla (422 AD-present)
 * Capital: There is no capital as the nation is decentralised with tribes. However the leading matriarch's tribe is often considered the capital with the unofficial capital being called "Umorka" which was founded in intent of council meetings.
 * Military: The military here is predominantly men (although female sacrificers might be seen as they are priestesses too) and since they are nomadic, the military tends to be larger, focused on cavalry and much flexible than organised armies of Rome or of former China. The numbers are largely raised dramatically after the Daevites have taken over Tistu, meaning that in the future, the Roman Empire may face a future threat even greater than the ones in the east and back at home. (or not, depending on how great the outlook is)
 * 16,000 horse archers
 * 12,000 horsemen/cavalry (comprised of spears, rarely long swords and daggers)
 * 5500 melee soldiers (comprised of spears, rarely long swords and daggers)
 * 4000 foot archers
 * 1000 sacrificers
 * Siege equipment such as ladders, battering rams and siege towers
 * Lots of catapults, some of them were built better than others.
 * Economy: The economy relies on basic subsidence and resources around the region. With the sacking of multiple villages and towns, along with the occupation, agriculture is being revived again, but for many of the Daevites, livestock is still predominant. No trade is observed from in and out of the Daevite Empire, largely because of the current state, which is basically destroying everything in one path.
 * Demographics: Though the population of Daevites quickly became a minority (apart from men who want to spread their genes, although the term gene did not exist then, it was a way to 'fasten the process of populating' further down the line by abducting non-Daevite women and trying to fertilise them), the Daevites have the most power and control over the Tistu kingdom itself.
 * Population: 2,100,000 (400,000 are of Daevite or half-Daevite [meaning those that were born from a Daevite father usually] descent, 1,500,000 are non-Daevites which are not considered slaves but forced to submit and 200,000 slaves)
 * Religion: 23% Blood Gods, 23% Astryianism, 3% Christian, 51% Other
 * Culture: 19% Daevite, 35% Yin-tsu/Tistuan, 23% German, 4% Roman/Latin, 5% Dacian, 14% Other
 * Events:
 * Astryianism: The religion of Astryianism spread with every slave and non-Daevite civilian who don't like the brutalities of the Daevite culture, but are influenced by that as a way 'to free themselves' from the oppression. Slave rebellion is impossible. But there is a chance that this religion could temporarily shine through the remains of the Daevite Empire once the empire collapses to its knees.
 * Attilla, Empress of the Daevite Empire: On the spring of 422, Attilla (intentionally spelt as that), the princess of all of the Umoric tribes has been coronated as the Empress of the Daevite Empire following the death of Matriarch Chav. Attilla, at the age of 23 was a bloodthirsty general too, seen in a horseback during raids about few years ago. In her childhood, she had absorbed much of the treasures that have been stolen by Daevites, travelling across with many of the priestesses to meet every single tribe scattered across the steppe and plains of their controlled territory. She would lead the Daevites into the attack of the Roman Empire for the first time in history, directly. She had heard of the legendary city of Rome and wanted to raze it down, but unfortunately historians can say that she will never reach Rome in time before her death.
 * Daevite Expansionism: The Daevites continued to push east and west. In the northern Caucasian mountains, the Romans might attack up north and push successfully with their tactics, but the Daevites can't attack south because of mountains that protect these settlements. However should they attack through there, they will be immediately torn down with horse archers and cavalry marching across these steppes.
 * The Sacking of the Roman Empire: The Danube river is a big problem, not only that the Romans could gain natural protection against their enemy once they reach the boundaries of the Danube river, the Daevites would need to cross it in order to further pillage settlements. Attilla devised plans as the Empress to not destroy any bridges (these bridges were likely to be built in the late 4th century to expand Roman influence by road), although this meant that Romans could still take it to their advantage, she would order roads to be destroyed but keep bridges intact to slow down advancements of the Roman legion, allowing them to cross over the Danube. The Romans from the Bactrian War were already experienced in combat and are likely going to return to their home soon, so there is a threat that their experience could hinder Attilla's ambition to reach Rome. The Daevite Empire devises an 'all-out charge' against the Roman enemy, with the Romans probably going on a defensive tactic and cover themselves up from arrow attacks, which would be the problem for horse archers but since the Daevites are somewhat unorganised, a mix of archery and melee would be seen together. Large catapults built by Daevite engineers would tear down the core within initially with large boulders. Daevites began marching south and trying to use this tactic to tear down huge Roman legions, then occupy and pillage villages that are essentially Romanised, abduct some of their men to be sacrificed and take the remaining children as slaves in the region of Dacia.
