What cake, they saying i suck :c
hey all, so I've been working on a conlang called "Azhkari" for a bit of a while now, it currently has 5 writing systems but I'm working on reducing it to 2.
anyways here's a short sample text using the tibetan script + a basic romanization system
དིརུ་ནིཌཡི༹ནྒ་ཨཤྨ་རིརིནྒ་ནྒོསྷི་ཀེས་ཁཱུནྜེསཿཨི༹་ཨཱུམེ་སཿ་ཥ༹ཿཨུནྒ་ཨཱཾརྀཡེ༹ཀཱི ཥཿཨོནྒཾཨཱཡོ༹ཥྐ་ཨཱི་ཨཱལ༹ཧེཀྦེརཿ
romanized:
Dîrîk bă mē nǜshkǜ kimkimi shani lyqiimidu mikshu
translation:
Above the deep seas and below the scorching heavens, just in between the home of man
Northern Belguim
blud is 👸🏻🇫🇷
Nahuatistan
bro became queen Antoinette (I have no idea how you spell her name French is a nightmare to spell-)
Woopera
The counter is 1.
nuh uh
eco-terrorism against rich people
Honestly, just watching rain being rain, similar to Lordhelm's but not exactly
Woopera
I definitely do not condone the mention of eco terrorism this individual is supporting
burn the rich. instill communist values into the USA. reap true freedom. cull the herd, remove the idiots from the population and create a utopia.

is this eugenics?
it is not incorrect to assume that I may or may not be insinuating the use of eugenics in modern day society, I just think that the world has too many idiots, so we must weed them out. if the world is full of smart people, we can solve every problem we currently have.
why so ⚒️
man idk 💀
Yes, the world is full of idiots, but instead of killing/weeding them out, why not educate them, so they can become smarter? In the long run it's most definitely not a waste of resources because, like you said, "if the world is full of smart people, we can solve every problem we currently have."

Here is it Incase someone missed it
Stupidly diverse. Theirs white people, scorched ones (black people), DragonBorn, orcs, dark elves, Zi'hu (furry like race comprised of dogs, wolves, bird folk, felines, croc folk), Ctyn'gwar (an furry tribe that do not like the Zi'hu that much which sometimes causes fighting to occur), and finally the Dragons (which are feral in shape but speak intellectually as elves and humans do).

[tr][td][spoiler=TOTA Answer :3][/spoiler][/td][/tr]
[/table]
Rock Pumice, Velhkaiddia, Werbert Woover
bro is literally jesus
The very notion of living forever is depressing for multiple reasons. Realistically in this scenario, knowing everyone I loved and cared for would die, I'd just sulk around until the death of the sun consumed me. Sorry for the depressing answer.
Velhkaiddia, Nahuatistan, Byzantine Union Of Confederate States
assuming that by "forever" it means I won't die at all, then even at the heat death of the universe, I won't die, unless that's the limit of forever
so to that I say: I'd just find a way to die, and if I don't, I'd just repeat everything I've tried
Velhkaiddia
Depends.
If you mean I won't die of old age then I'd probably try and learn as many skills and professions as I can.
But if you mean I become immortal and unkillable then I'm honestly not sure. The only I know for certain is that I'd probably become a lot more reckless and daring.
Velhkaiddia, Byzantine Union Of Confederate States
I would keep doing what I'm doing now, because what I'm doing now is what I enjoy doing and it's what I want to do right now. Perhaps after the lifespan of an ordinary human after I've done the things I want to do now, I might move on to other aspirations, but I am happy with where I am at now or at least where I am going with my life and living forever wouldn't change that :]
Riko Republic, Velhkaiddia
I would walk from my hometown to Lhasa Tibet and become a wandering nomad for the rest of humanity.
for a more poetic answer, I would go far from the lands of man, high into the mountains and calm lakes of Tibet, I would roam the plateau, playing songs for the mountains and the yaks that surrounds the landscape. I want to be able to roam free among the serene mountains, playing the dranyen for any wanderers who find me and wish to stay. I would be truly at peace until the end of time

Good afternoon Astoria
How are you all today?
my grandma got into a car accident yesterday :(
other than that I'm fine

Oh sorry to hear that, I hope shes alright
This is nothing formal whatsoever but, with that said, say your nation has the option of jumping either 100 years into the past or future. Which would you rather choose, and how would it impact your country? This can either be your RP nation, your NS stats nation etc.
Also if you haven't joined Astoria's nation RP you totally should :3
Woopera
future!!!! Also, scientific advancements and stuff
Easily future, to become even more of a space-faring nation than we already are!
Riko Republic, Woopera
Sounds like fun, any specific things you'd be interested in?
Seems very interesting
Woopera
space empire
FUUUUUUUUUUTUUUUUUUUUUREEEEE
azhania needs that plot development, it would be perfect if it was set in the 1800s or smth or whenever the time shift lands
I have a crazy amount of hatred for that series. And I read all of it, so I think I have more water than some.
Also, 300+ people will not result in a GDP of $15 unless you mean that $ represents a large unit used by your nation. Learn how GDP is calculated.
Taricha.
Nahuatistan, what interests you about Wenzhounese? Also, I phi (Φφ) and theta (Θθ) make the thorn very confusing when I see it.
My problem with eugenics is that it would be people implementing it. And people are corrupt. They are flawednot to say they are evil, but they are not to be trusted with eugenics, in my opinion.
OFC you see social media and wonder whether some individuals are actively hindering progress enough to warrant their termination (from the platform guys chill), but ethics are important to consider. You do not want to set a precedent that allows the powerful/or wealthy to abuse good people.
Rock Pumice, Woopera
alr I'll consider this in the perspective of a few countries I've worldbuilt
1. Enatoa
[spoiler]Considering Enatoa is always very prone to civil wars, going 100 years into the future means multiple, way more advanced threats from the outside, and our tech would be wayyyy too old in relation to theirs, and also, Arcesia, as far as I remember, never had anything similar to a geneva convention, so everything except WMDs (banned) would be on the table to use against Enatoa
Also considering that this 100-year move into the future happens before Enatoa is divided into North and South Enatoa, that means Enatoa is already in the middle of a civil war, which contributes to this being a bad option
.
Going 100 years into the past though, means that Enatoa would likely be in a way better position technologically speaking, but even then there's still a civil war, and that could be used to smuggle that tech outside, which shouldn't be that different from their past counterparts, since 100 years back would be somewhere around 1920-1960
Now, assuming no one from outside knows that this Enatoa is way more technologically advanced, they would probably assume it is still a monarchy, and I thought that was cool to note, idk
I'll skip a whole load of details but, for Enatoa, the best option would probably be the past.
[/spoiler]
2. Koronic
[spoiler]
Hi! Well, 100 years into the future would be the best option imo, since Astoria wasn't very prone to wars at all (for obvious reasons, i.e. nukes), so the technological leap would favour that
Going 100 years into the past means that Koronic would be the only country with higher level tech, and while that's ok and all, the past's advantages are not as good
Hai hai, Future it is
[/spoiler]
3. Ethelor
[spoiler]
Eh, a space empire... going 100 years into the future or past... hmm...
Going to the past is the better option since Ethelor controls a large portion of a galaxy, and 100 years ago it did not :p honestly idk what to do with this one lol
Past it is then
[/spoiler]
I got progressively more lazy while writing this lol
i could also go into way more details for Enatoa uwu, like, what would happen if it moved during its maximum expansion, or what would happen if it moved after being divided, or reunited under Utaih's banner (too much Enatoa lore)
Riko Republic, Astra
to answer your question, I think that Wenzhounese has a very fascinating way of changing tones and how they're pronounced, according to Omniglot.com, "There is a complex system of tone changes (Sandhi), and many letters are pronounced differently depending on which other letters they appear next to." I find a system like this to be very interesting, and ive tried to integrate a similar thing into my conlang Azhkari, to a little success. Azhkari isn't really tonal per se, but it still has the phonology and grammatical rules to be able to use a system like what wenzhounese has. for an example, there's a common phrase in Azhkari ("ཧྶནིཾཨིཿཎིག་་ཀོཀོཡྻི༹་ཨཱིཡོ༹ཎཱིཾཨཱིཥ༹ཿཨཱིཿ") which is pronounced as "ǢẙȅⱩŋı ȅlặm șẙżẙḵimặ". the capital "Ⱪ" indicates a /x/ phoneme, seen in Arabic and German (like in "ich"). if one places more emphasis on the "Ⱪ", it give the word a different meaning, the grammar is based on emphasis on certain syllables. I could yap on and on about Azhkari and how its written and spoken and the phonology all day if I wanted to.
Coastal States, Woopera
The latinized version is just plain bad tbh
that's the point sir its meant to be worse than the tibetan romanization, the CORRECT pronounciation without all the diacritics would be "Aeyekhngi aylaim shyzyakma"
I ain't too good with romanisation systems yet, its still a WIP. that's for the feed back tho
Woopera
100 years ago for Nu Elysium would be 1983, so there would be the mars landings, the trust-busts, and The Eruption.
100 years in the future for Nu Elysium would be 2183, so there would likely be some type of interstellar presence, a Synthetic president, and maybe the Ringcellerator would be finished by this time.
I would choose the future.
Æ is "ee" as in "Egypt," and ŋ is the nasal n where the "ng" sound is not as obvious as "sang," right?

Bit difficult. I think I would probably be a lot more reckless with what I do, but also more careful. I can't get in any serious trouble, cause it'll effect me for the rest of my life, but I also can't die, so let's go take some risks.

[tr][td]How does your nation view/treat queer people?[/td][/tr]
[/table]
Lordhelm, Velhkaiddia
Pretty well in general, as Elves don't have as binary of a concept of gender as much of humanity in the world of Astralis does. Furthermore, there are spells to change one's gender so as such having changed gender is not the most uncommon thing in Unikean society.
Velhkaiddia, Woopera
From a general public standpoint there are accepted due to the hodgepodge of groups within Aralia and from a government standpoint the only laws surrounding them are laws that allow them to be themselves and acknowledge/protect their rights but haven't ever been a huge topic of discussion due to Aralia's overall small population and no one really ever caring to impede/harm them and their activities.
Velhkaiddia, Dionysou, Woopera

No. WTF. Get out.
Joking, of course.
Welcome to Astoria new friend, who I would assume I can call Robert!
the cult mandates being lesbian, nothing else matters. men are subservient to the cult, because women are hot
Unclear
Yeah i'm robert perlson, thanks!
Grishahakkaverchynot, Woopera
It is taboo, but not illegal or anything
Aged like milk
Since we are talking about the 19th century roleplay I doubt it is a major political issue. But I imagine it would be criminalized depending on what exactly meant by queer.
they are the treasure of our republic
At least some species within the Alliance are parthenogenic. Among humans, queer individuals are not ostracized, although they may be subjected to undesirable curiosity from children.
homosexuality and queerness in general is a large but unspoken part of current Azhani society, at least 3/4 of the population is queer.
What? 3/4th that doesn't sound sustainable.
Woopera
see coastal states post below
It just means that families must have an average of slightly more than two children that survive to adulthood.
edit: like any other nation with a growing population. Queer ≠ no children, and bisexuality is but one flavor.
