History
Bojov
Bojovo has always been home to the Bojov, a warrior-like people with a culture centered on hunting, warfare, and pastoral sheep herding. Leadership within this community is based on martial skills. The Bojov have a rich history of interclan warfare, making them veterans in various conflicts.
Hradista and Unification
Hradista was one of the city-states of the Veselyv. During a conflict with a rival city-state, the leaders of Hradista formed an alliance with the neighboring Bojovi. This alliance led to the creation of the Kingdom of Hradista-Bojov, a major power in the Veselyv region.
Government
The royal family of Hradista-Bojov combines elements from both the Hradistai and Bojov cultures. It has endured for three centuries, fostering peace between the two peoples. However, the kingdom faces challenges from demarchism, a rising political movement in the Veselyv. Bojovi are highly opposed to any attempts at overthrowing the monarchy.
Military
The military of the Kingdom is majorly led by Bojovi, especially in positions of leadership. During wartime, there's a mix of Bojov and Hradistai soldiers. Bojovi are primarily infantry, while Hradistai serve in support roles, including artillery. The Bojov also have units that operate as mercenaries during peacetime.
Culture
Bojov Culture
The Bojov value family ties and are organized into clans. They are also resistant to technological advancement and modernization, with an emphasis on tradition.
Hradistai Culture
Hradistai culture is urban-focused and highly adaptable, contrasting with the tradition-oriented Bojov.
Religion
Bojovi have adopted Sadarene but are relatively secular, while Hradista mainly follows a local sect of Interventionist Orkanan called Congregational Orkanan.
Economy
Bojovo's economy is based on subsistence agriculture, hunting, and a small textile industry. Hradista has a diverse economy, exporting cloth, glass, and furniture. The region also profits from mercenary activities.
Resources
Hradista's hinterlands are rich in gold mines and lumber. Since the union, several mineral deposits, including platinum, copper, and silver, have been discovered in Bojovo.
Language
Bojovi speak Bojovic, while Hradistai speak Sjazek. Both languages are mutually comprehensible.
