Ferosia
Culture
Ferosia, like Cahaisten, has a culture heavily built upon the country's military. All able-bodied citizens are required at least 2 years of military training. As such, the people of Ferosia hold great respect to its military and many folks tend to carry on a strict mindset even after leaving the military.
Ferosins have an extreme hatred for orcs. This is due to the fact that they reside right next to Gruumsh's Hook and the frontier of Nordinia, a battle-filled land of carnage. This unfortunately radiates to the half-orc race of people. The few half-orcs that reside in Ferosia experience a significant amount of prejudice and only have some barely legal-level protection. Full orcs, though, are marked to be captured and/or killed on sight.
Assets
Due to the foundings by the two dwarven clans, Ferosia is fortunate to have a large supply of raw materials in which weapons and armor can be crafted from by artisans. Huge deposits of iron and copper have allowed the military to stay up and armed.
Even at the turn of the century, Ferosia continues to arm their citizens and soldiers. As firearms slowly became more prevalent, Ferosins were more than happy to bring them into their national arsenal. Many of their firearms are supplied by Sorcodia Arms and the Orion Corporation.
Demography and Population
Ferosia's population is mostly consisted of dwarves, humans, and halflings. Elves are rare in Ferosia and so are dragonborn. The race with the absolute lowest population would be half-orcs, due to the social prejudice they suffer from.
There are two large mountain civilizations and most of the population resides in said civilizations. Those who don't live within the mountains live in towns sprawled across the lands. Dwarves, for obvious reasons, prefer to live in the mountains.
Military
Like Cahaisten, Ferosia is very militaristic. It has a large army and also has a surprisingly strong navy, despite the fact that it is a land-locked country. The navy is usually used to patrol the massive lake of Lake Edrie. Many brigands and sneaky orcs tend to use this river to travel from place to place and the navy is there to stop them. Its army, on the other hand, is just as well-equipped as Cahaisten's army or Valesco's navy. All soldiers learn to fight with all sorts of weapons, including firearms.
Technological Level
While Ferosia's technological level was more or less the same when compared to other countries during the early to mid 5th century, it quickly adopted the many new technologies that sprung up after entering the Time of Technology. Firearms became more prevalent and some say that Thorcester artificers have been working with Ferosia to build special battle-ready vehicles.
Trade & Transport
Ferosia does plenty of trading with its southern neighboring countries. They usually need to import a lot of crops from southern countries like Talimo, Valesco, and Cahaisten. In return, they transport out a lot of raw materials such as iron, steel, and even some Forza Crystals (556). Sometimes when a physical item can't be imported, the Ferosin economy has no problem accepting payment in gold.

Legislative Body
Ferosia technically is ran by two governments. As such, those two head governments make the legislative and judicial decisions. When one government passes a law, the other government must be ok with it. If not, the law is sent back to its government.
