for Azhania, we actually know a lot about our first leader- given that he's leading the country right now.
although its kind of a Kim-jong-il thing, everything we know about A'zhi was written by him, and none of it is remotely true. (although he's not as bad as the leaders I had for the last RP)

Giant squid are not fish by any reputable standard.
Incorrect. What is true is that the category of "fish" that includes sharks or coelacanths but not humans is not a proper (monophyletic) evolutionary category (clade).
As for my favorite, how about I disclose it after I get an honest-to-God research paper published on it? Yes, that's what I'm going to college for, and yes, it is a bonkers thing to do.

Heyo Astoria!
Rosartemis
Heyo!
The Democratic Republic of Byzantine Union of Confederate States was once an island made up of several diverse tribes with long rich histories. (Most tribes still have their own histories dating back at least a millennia and many display them in local museums and cultural centers.) However, after years of wars and threats from outside of the island, the people chose to come together under one leader. His name was William Hardee. (Our capitol is named for him.) He was wise and tended toward compromising rather than warfare. He united the tribes to fend off the invaders and then had the foresight to band the peoples together to form one nation. This was just under 200 years ago and we have an excellent museum in Hardee City that one can explore to learn more of our united heritage and culture.

Ah, ok
Giant squid are cephalopods. The most recent common ancestor between fish and cephalopods would be a bilateran (specifically a nephrozoan). If giant squid and, say, tuna, are considered fish, then humans, lobsters, insects, and sea urchins would all be fish.

@gioni on the discord, i let myself in
But I do believe humans are fish :3
Coastal States
As do I. But if you do not believe sea urchins are fish, then giant squid cannot be fish either (at least evolutionarily).
then theyre also fish
Coastal States
Alright. If you believe that, then giant squid can be fish in your definition.
Basically, sea urchins are distantly related to the normal definition of fish; giant squid (along with the rest of Mollusca) and cockroaches (along with the rest of Arthropoda) are a bit further away.
Congrats. You've made a definition that has less utility than mine. The general "fish" that means "all gnathostomes that are not tetrapods" has high utility, which is why it is dominant. My definition of "fish" that means "all gnathostomes" has slightly less utility in common parlance; and finally yours which encapsulates almost everything people would consider animals, which can be argued as a having low utility in English.
Hello, Astoria!
If it blub blub, it fish

Velhkaiddia
Tower Modvil is the tallest building in Xarikistan. It's exactly 525 metres tall, and has a few different purposes.
The bottom 3 floors house Arcade X, the largest shopping centre in the country
The next 70 floors are apartments
The next 30 floors are part of a hotel (The Jewel - the second most expensive and highly-rated hotel in the country)
The next 10 floors are luxury apartments, which are the most expensive apartments in Modvil (but not all of Xarikistan)
The next 5 floors are offices
The next floor is a private penthouse owned by the richest person in Xarikistan
The top floor, and rooftop, are utilised as an observation deck

It's like sudoku. I recommend going for the puzzles that have aren't the ones with black blocks in each corner by pressing "regenerate." Start on the edges, try to complete lines that add up to very low or very high numbers.
Woopera
There are instructions, though I don't see myself playing this game mechanic much tbh lol
You need to make the numbers outside the boxes add up to the numbers inside the box in their respective rows and columns. You can't repeat numbers in a row/column. Its a bit complicated but that's the best I can do for you (however its absurdly hard so :/)
I hab border control now >:3

Poetry is frowned upon in Azhania, its regarded as sinful and blasphemous. before the Khajits (or whatever the In universe name for cat people is) took Makarat, there was an Azhani Poet named Đıká Ráil Ǡbēd who was known for writing poetry about the nomadic history of the Azhani people.
his most famous poem is titled Řákshásá Ǡửsō (burning mountains), it tells a story of a young boy lost in the midst of a siege of the mountains
