The Kingdoms
Here is where the information of the kingdoms will be held. If there is any information at all If none of you want to give me some of this then I'll just start making up my own things. But again, I would love for you guys to talk with one another and figure out how it looks like, how the parents are, and things like that. When you have the information sent it to me and I'll add it here.
ℊardyner Kingdom. The Gardyner Kingdom is mostly flat lands with fertile soil and lots of sunshine. The middle of the country is a prairie and further north there are more forests. The south and eastern borders are mainly coastal, with some small fishing villages as well as larger merchant cities. Most of the population lives near the coast except for a few rural farmers. The country is fairly wealthy due to the good farmland and lots of trade. The government is a parliamentary monarchy, where the king and queen have final say in all decisions. Parliament has two houses, one of lords (born with their titles) and one of commoners (elected by the people, only landed men allowed). The fact that commoners are allowed to have some say in government means that there is more social mobility for the wealthy in Gardyner. Servants in Gardyner are paid well and it's considered a very skilled job to be a servant in the royal palace. Clothing is made of very lightweight silks and cottons because of the warm climate, dyed every color under the sun. Wealthy people are never seen in public without some sort of jewelry, and the more you wear, the more impressed people will be. Gardyner is the breadbasket of the five kingdoms, known for tropical fruit that doesn't grow anywhere else, as well as other crops such as wheat and maize that are grown on the prairie.

〇belyn Kingdom. The Obelyn Kingdom has both the mountain range that the Ryall Kingdom has through its north boarders and the coast that surrounds Gardyner Kingdom's southern boarder. The castle of the this kingdom sits close to the coast upon a coastal river. This river flows from the northern eastern area and winds its way down the mountains into the vales and coastal plains. The castle city is very much like Venice. It is a city of trade and arts. They are open minded but the caste system is very much still respected and in place. Due to the nature of trade etc it has become common place for most people to learn archery in basic forms as well as swordsmanship for defense on the seas. The country largely deals with exporting exotic spices, clothing, and even weapons from around the world. They also have their own local arts and ocean cartography. Obelyn is special in its unmatched seamanship. They are also known as skilled artisans be it crafting beautify and sleek boats or elegant and regal statues Obelynions enjoy creating with skilled and practiced hands. The country also enjoying competition's with boas and close quarter fencing that would be common please at sea. They have a large festival every summer of moc battles to show off and practice these very skills. The royal clothing is typical white accented with gold. It is not an uncommon practice though for the nobility to accent their attire with vibrant colors and exotic cloths to accent the more traditional clothing base.

ℛyall Kingdom. At the very north of this kingdom is a vast mountain range that the castle itself is apart of. Bitter cold winds and snow dominate this kingdom. As it is mostly a mountainous region of the 5 kingdoms, it has little land for actual farming. Only on the very southern boarder of this kingdom can produce most of the food. However, due to the colder weather, the grapes that are grown there are smaller and full of sugar. The result is sweeter wines, something the Ryall kingdom is known for. Loyalty is held above all else in this kingdom and so within this harsh kingdom, the King and Queen pay very close attention to the needs of their people. Though the rule is absolute, it is not unknown form nobles or staff from the castle to visit and listen in on what the common people have to say. Taxes are raised and lowered based upon the understanding that the king and queen must do this for a reason that will benefit the kingdom and it's people. This idea is also put forth into the very castle itself. It is also common knowledge that both the princess of Ryall and their father make it their duty to know most of the staff in the castle. As the king once said "How can you expect your people to lay down their lives for you if they do not know a thing about you?" The clothing choice of the kingdom favors the darker colors and thicker materials to keep everyone warm. Satin, heavy cotton, and thick silks in dark colors are the main choices.
Things that are exported from Ryall Kingdom:
❄Their Sweet Wines
❄The Gems that are harvested from the mountain sides
❄Other minerals found around and within the mountain
❄Marble

ℰyre Kingdom. The Eyre Kingdom sits right in the middle of the 5 kingdoms, sharing boarders with the other four. Throughout most of the kingdom it is nothing but hills and forests. The only exception is the large lake in the enter of the kingdom. Overall it is a mild temperate kingdom, at least for the most part But on the edges it does share some characteristics of the other four kingdoms. Known for their excellent fighting and soldiers, they are also known for other things. Their cheese and dairy is unmatched to any of the other four kingdoms. Having so much life stalk around the kingdom, and having different temperatures at the different boarders, it has resulted in a far range of different cheeses and other dairy products. As for the ruling of the kingdom itself, the rule is absolute by the king. As such, servants of this kingdom are just that; servants. No matter how close a servant is to the royal family, even going as far as saying they are friends and even family, they are there for a reason and will, in the end, be deemed as such. As for the clothing choices of this kingdom, tunics of light and durable cottons and leathers are worn here.
