★★★★★★★★★★
SCIENCES
▲ RAPID CHANGE
Panymese technology and sciences have been increasingly improving over the past few years; Panymese scientists are looking into the biological sciences more, though the interest in science has only lasted for a few generations.

Recent closure in many trade ports have made it hard for the Panymese to sell their products off-shores, and has resulted in a very internal economy. Raw products are meeting low population demand, but manufactured products are struggling to keep up due to low worker availability.

Recent trends in Ecaran scientists have united with Yirui scientists to cooperate in their goal to expand their knowledge of the sciences. Yirui scientists are especially interested in the fields of mathematics and physics.

★★★★★★★★★★
MAGICS
▼
With technology and science gaining stronghold in the Yirui philosophy, it is no surprise that magic has been slowly ignored as an educated practice; great masters in Yirui still exist, but what was once the strong magical flame of Yirui is starting to dim.

★★★★★★★★★★
INFLUENCE
▼
With the Black Death scare reaching the bays of the Eastern Continent from Panymium years ago, Yirui has recently barred itself from politically associating with Panymium, and has refused aid in fear of its people suffering from the Plague as well.

★★★★★★★★★★
RELIGIOUS
▼
Long ago, the great beasts and demons of legend kept Yirui highly spiritual and on their feet. As of recent, Yirui's faith has started to fade, though strong believers still hold true. It is said that Yirui houses one of the oldest established religions in human history.

★★★★★★★★★★
PROSPERITY
▼ SLOW CHANGE
While Ardenth's technology is great, its living conditions are not. Its extremely high population density renders in insanitary streets, even worse than that of Panymium's, and citizens are left unhappy. Many Ardenians as of recent are known to leave their country in search of new places to live.

★★★★★★★★★★
SCIENCES
▲
Its sciences account very, very little for its economical and technological success. Because of this and its high population density, Ardenth is at a high risk of infection from the Black Death, and is weary of its western neighbor. It has blocked its trading and immigrant relations with Panymium completely.

★★★★★★★★★★
MAGICS
-
Widely hailed as the most successful country in terms of its successful use in Magic.

★★★★★★★★★★
INFLUENCE
▲
The Black Death and its tie to the economical Depression in both Panymium and Ecara has led to a state of desperation; nations are begging at Ardenth's door for economical aid and stimulus.

★★★★★★★★★★
RELIGIOUS
-
The other surrounding countries often refer to Ardenth as 'The Godless Continent' for its lack of religious conviction, among other reasons.

★★★★★★★★★★
ECONOMICS
▼ SLOW CHANGE
A country of high economics and political status, Ardenth stands at the top of the economical chain, with its business managers and immigrants creating large monopolies of business through manufactured products.
