Rumas (EthanConquistador's AHOW)

''This page is about Rumas in Ethan's AHOW. For other uses, see Rumas (disambiguation)''

Rumas (ROO-mas) (Ruman: Rumae, Italian: Rumas/Ruma), officially called Kingdom of Rumas (Ruman: Rumae Kilvesche, Italian: Regno di Rumas) is a nation situated in Italy and South France (Occitania) (this will change over time as this is a rough concept). It is a highly developed nation and plays a role in the Congress of Rome and United Nations.

The nation spans over most of the Italian peninsula as an unified Italian nation but entirely not based off Italian culture or at least it's a Germanic-Italian culture with modifications. The largest city is the capital itself, Rumas.

Kingdom of Rumas was formed by a band of Rumans from Germany and took over North Italy and then loses all of mainland Italy to only just Corsica. The Carolingian Empire tries to conquer Rumas, splitting Rumas again to Sicily or Sardinia. It plays a role of the First Crusade during 1002, taking over Tunis (Carthage). It's also responsible to have a pope inside the nation without being a theocracy, with autonomy in just around at least 245 hectares and it still has autonomy and even created a small province to this day.

It fell under Hungarian personal union, and then united into the Ruman-Hungarian Empire and collapsed after having a struggle with administration across most of Middle East and Caucasus. Rumas lost most of North Italy (until Genoa) to HGE (including the Archduchy of Austria), and slowly being influenced by Germans. In the Fourteenth century, the Ruman conquest of Austria and Switzerland starts as the Ruman-Austrian War, where they have created a duchy named as the Ruman Kingdom of Austria. It then attacked Kingdom of France and slowly fell to the Holy German Empire, with the Siege of Rumas taking place, making Rumas surrender and the king is abdicated.

Rumas has created a colonial empire in 1455 CE, just after the English settled in the New World, they were used as their settlers to gain wealth and military on the Americas, also the first country to conquer a proper tribe called the 'Happy-Hungrians' (soon to be Happy Hungry Kingdom). The Renaissance has made Rumas more cultural than warfare but the traditions of warfare stays the same and a new era dawns in Rumas, resulting in a drastic art changes as well as science being prioritised.

The Karpateicid Dynasty inherited the Ruman Kingdom, which lasted for few decades until a succession war started. The succession war is where the Siaevintine pretender demands to overthrow a foreign dynasty out of Rumas, claiming Rumas should never be owned by any other foreign nation. The slave trade in the Americas grew as Rumas has colonised Africa to gain slaves and other nations as well to build plantations, which the colonial nations are fighting against the Pannonian dynasty and standing up with the pretender, it ended up with a victory against the Karpateicid dynasty.

Etymology
The word Rumas deprives from the Ruman word Rumae which literally meant to be 'Ruman'. Rumae Kilvesche would've known as 'Ruman Kingdom'.

WIP

Provinces
Rumas is divided up to 28 mainland administrative regions (39 if it has all of their claimed territory, which is called 'Greater Rumas') and 8 municipalities (including the capital). Each is led by a Kausche (for administrative regions) which acts similar to dukes as if the nation was feudal. This includes, note that the table is somehow a WIP and the map:

Climate
The capital has lesser rainfall because of cooler temperatures during winters, means that the temperature in Rumas is around 15°C in summers and -7°C in winters. (REWORK)

Laws
WIP

Elections
It may seem to have little or no election to the head of state, but there is an election on regional areas of Rumas. The elections are almost predominantly elected by few families, with 21% of the candidates being not part of those families. (WIP)

Foreign Relations
Rumas had maintained some relations to fascist governments, it still maintains relations with almost all of the countries (except Muslim ones as they think Rumas is a terrorist organisation) and 30 embassies established in foreign nations at a slow rate. Some nations terminated the diplomatic relations with Rumas because they have being designated as a terrorist organisation or fearing that they will take over the world.

It is part of the Pact of Christiania (also known as the Pact of Oslo or the Alliance of Autocratic Nations [AAN] since it has fascist totalitarian nations). It's members are the Norse Kingdom, Rumas, Kingdom of Arabia, Germany (until fall of Third Reich), Kingdom of Hungary (until 1954), Russia and some Asian nations (not described) (unconfirmed), it's also the leader of this. Also the one who controls the United Nations (The Global Council of Earth [GCE]) and founding member but it lost control after the fall of fascism with most nations (but some) are becoming democratic and 3/4 are kingdoms.

Colonies
The Ruman civilisation had a long expansionist history, ranging from the rise of the First Ruman Empire to colonial expansion. It colonised chunks of areas in the world, from the United States to New Zealand by the 19th century. Most of the colonies were usually led by themselves but still in Rumas since the early 20th century, where most of America is now independent from their country.

UEAL
Should be moved to Union of East America and Louisiana (Ethan's AHOW) 

Most of the colonies in the region of the Thirteen Colonies merge into a union, including the Ruman colonies in the region, it was named as the "Union of East America", similar to the United States of today except only confined to modern East United States. Louisiana was still part of France until 1830, where UEA acquires it through a purchase, renaming themselves to "Union of East America and Louisiana, which makes it easy to attack HHK from both sides but were unsuccessful, they were only able to annex few parts of it.

The UEAL splits into at least seven regions, Texas, Louisiana, Matrikaou/Matrion, Podgatsko/New England, Sude/Lowlands, Lustrikion/Lustria/Southeast and Appalachia/East and which are split into states (not counting Matrikaou) which were based from colonial lands but some are created by UEAL.

Military

 * Population: ~92,237,050
 * Available Manpower: ~31,450,000
 * Active personnel: ~670,000-780,000
 * Reserve personnel: ~210,000

People
They claim to be descandant of the Romans which is false, but the Ruman government deny any claims to this. They seem to have Germanic origins since the Ostrogoths are Germanic.

Science and Technology
Since the 11th century, Rumas has changed science, they created plans and concepts but most were not used by Rumas until the 17th century. The emperor also supported some ideas that would strengthen Rumas' military and begins to prioritise science. They were able to change the mechanics how space actually looked like by knowledge.

It also played a role on inventing flight, theorised some particles, discovery of ancient creatures, creating more formulas (mathematics) and lasers. They also opened a university in Rumas since 1720 called The University of Lypse where it focuses on biology and the dominant species (see the section called Wolves). Around 1822, natural selection, is purposed because of the fossils being dug in Rumas and comparing the bones to modern animals, yet is still being condemned in Rumas but gradually becomes almost accepted and remains a theory.

During the authoritarian rule, Rumas had still continued refining their new technology. Today, Rumas had their first university still intact with it's architecture being remade to fit modern buildings, yet it was used for new purposes such as computers and programming, completely turning it into a place for the ones who are interested on more modern technology.

Infrastructure
The railway network connected through major cities and towns, there are also commuter rails which are only restricted to major municipalities and some major cities. The Ruman Rail maintains the railways around the Ruman territory itself, running most of the national railways except commuter ones, which are owned by the city itself but still is state owned technically.

Around 39 main airports (198 with minor ones) exist in Rumas (WIP)

Demographics
Main article: Demographics of Rumas

The demographics are said to be having a high population of 129,200,000 people (this changes later) and is still growing. It is said to be rising due to increased fertility and a program set up in Rumas to gain more children which meant to increase manpower. The eight municipalities are the most populous than any other territory with Rumas having around 4,320,000 people.

The fertility rate is around 2.9 children per women in average and is declining due to health improvements, however the program is said to be run until the end of the 21st century where it will stagnant, the human population will drastically increase by the end of the 21st century but ends in some point, but the wolves will still outrun humans in their territory.

The ethnicity is predominantly Ruman and has small minorities that are unrecognised by any people in Rumas, with 1.1% of the minorities (most of them are migrants from Africa or East Europe) making up the population itself.

WIP

Ethnic Groups
The ethnic group is predominantly Ruman or Italian (they make up a smaller amount with 1/9 making up the ethnicity) with 0.7% making the made out of foreigners (mostly Muslims or Jews, the smaller ones are Germans and Slovenians). Since immigration is strict, the country has remained almost the same before migrants happen.

The ethnic group changed slightly due to mass refuge in North Africa, many Moroccans, Algerians, Tunisians and Libyans arrived in Rumas but they were repeatedly turned back with no consent. There is an exception to this, which is a visa.

Education
The Ruman education system isn't that compulsory at the beginning, but after 5 years, school becomes compulsory, between 5-14. The system is similar to Italy's education system but it's modified.

Religion
The government is not secular or at least claimed to be since 2011 AD, with a catholic majority and 1.4% being non-Catholic or non-religious (with the non-religious being the majority). The muslim population is persecuted for no reason since 1950 AD, shrinking the Muslim population by percentage from 3.4% to 0.2%.

It banned religious practices on Islam in 1987 AD as a fear that it would create another Muslim state or attempt a terrorist attack, while terrorism and unstability arises, refugees and migrants are moving to Rumas and Mediterrean nations everyday, causing problems to Rumas. They decide to publicly execute Muslims in response to immigration and enforces strict immigration laws, which deem to violate human rights.

In 2005 AD, houses inhabited by religious foreigners were demolished in Rumas. This angers most of the Jewish and Muslim population and caused a massive riot in Rome. In Pavia and Salona (a colony), protests came along as well. Around 2006 AD, a small group created a neopagan faith on Romans. The Ruman government finds this as an act of offence to such Muslim population.

In 2011 AD, the Ruman government imposes reforms on religion, making it more secular, however there is still public executions in Rumas.

They also imposed a religious tax on non-Christians, an extra 10% tax, while being non-Catholic gives an extra 2.5%, being a non-Catholic and a non-Christian is around 12.5% in total, so most of the immigrants from the Balkans and in Muslim nations prefer going to Western Europe (without Italy) and colonial nations (wealthy ones to be precise)

It is also home to the Holy See (Vatican City), but it isn't independent but has an autonomous status.

Languages
Main articles: Ruman language (Rumas), Languages of Rumas

The official language is Ruman, however the Italian language is still being used in some areas notably in South Italy, only by 9,771,000 people, has it as a first language or mother tongue.

There are two varients of the Ruman language being written, one is the widely used dialect (from 8th century) and one made by a 19th century person who only changed city names and some words. However there is no spoken language in Rumas nor the whole wolf realms, but it is considered incorrect towards humans. (WIP)

Music
WIP

Media
Main article: Media of Rumas

Rumas started broadcasting radios since 1899. They were broadcasted throughout only in the capital city of Rumas and the rest of it wasn't heard until 1923, the media department in Rumas establishes a station that is used for propaganda and later expanded and created more of it. There is around 23 radios that are purely propaganda, mainly stationed in the capital city, major municipalities and some major cities.

The Ruman media is strict, almost similar with DPRK (North Korea) except they do it in a different way. Films were usually banned made by foreign media, setting in Rumas' controlled territory and it's sites, except their own media, where they are not banned and is only used for propaganda, in some occasions they allow some documentaries set in Rumas as long they follow their 'rules' such as not showing anything that Rumas lost any of the historical wars or discriminating the Ruman emperors, etc.

The press freedom is often limited. The press requires praising the emperor, the party and so on, however they provide some freedom in some places.

All of the television and radio is restricted to Rumas and some nationalist/fascist nations. The foreign radio stations and television are often limited due to the attempts to jam anything from television to radio and only allows Ruman ones.

Settings for Ethan's AHOW
The world starts off somewhat historical with mistakes and turns unstable with nations change borders in just around five to ten years during Episode Three. There might be some events that still be analogues to the real life events such as the Sibegol for the Mongol invasion. Cultures in the northern hemisphere uses some sort of different names, usually split into three or more cultures for one terran culture.

North and South Hemispheres are divided into two races, the wolves at the north and the humans at the south, with the sentient wolves inhabiting similarily to the wolf's historical range and more into the south. They seem to be hostile to each other, since they want the whole world. The world's temperature is quite low as 4°C in average, likely due to lesser sun activity or further from the sun, making humans struggling for heat, so most of them live in the equator where it has more light (means temperatures are higher unless there has being mountains).

The wolf-controlled nations are more developed (in North America, West Europe and some nations in East Europe) than human-controlled nations.

Punishments and Executions
Most reasons about execution is treason, practising foreign religions or being homosexual. It is also responisble amputating hands when it comes to stealing, a year prison when making mistakes on the press even the tiniest mistake could make a worth of a year prison, breaking contracts and finally becoming a slave when someone becomes bankrupt.

The UN claims (which is actually true) that Rumas is violating human rights as other followers, homosexuals and poor people were innocent. The government of Rumas ignored the warning to abolish execution laws.

Travel Advice
For those who want to travel to Rumas might reconsider their travel.

Although Rumas have landmarks such as the Colosseum, the canals of Venice and the old Italian traditions, it is also advised to follow the regime of Rumas (the Emperor of Rumas), anyone who insults the country, people and the emperor will be sentenced to death, a year imprisonment or lifetime imprisonment. The ones matching above (the Punishment section) will either have a lifetime imprisonment or death penalty.

It is also seen that passports from muslim nations are not valid in Rumas unless a form is signed. Rumas does not recognise dual nationality, carrying two passports are illegal and will be second one will be confiscated if suspected to have another one.

Irredentism
