The Nation of /VRT/

The land of current /VRT/ used to be a lawless land of small Tribes fighting each other, alliances were swift and always changing. One day a spaceship crashed in these lands and on its crash site it revealed what is now known as Robots. The Robots did not understand why passing this Planet brought them down to it, and they never would as the crash proved so fatal that it destroyed nearly all that was aboard including all data storage, leaving the robots that survived with only what was included on their own OS in order to get their bearings and no memories of their own. The tribes fearing the new beings from this crash attacked the robots to exterminate them as well as secure whatever they might think could be of use to them from the crashed ship, but the Robots proved too strong a foe for the tribe's primitive ways. One tribe, the tribe of the Hill, however decided to rather watch from the sidelines and gather information instead of fighting as was tradition for their Tribe, wich made them notice that the robots fighting more for self-defense rather than aggressively, thus they tried to strike up negotiations to secure them as allies instead. Learning that the Robots followed what they called their Mother-Unit, Onolumi, and that this being was rather curious and fond of the humanoids, the tribe of the Hill decided to guide the Robots with their knowledge of the other tribes to victory securing the Land for their alliance to rule in peace.

A long time has since passed and the land of /VRT/ has grown to be a grand mercantile country with many of its merchants and scholars traveling the world around not only to trade for profit or learn of the history of the world, but also to collect old and/or broken technology of other countries for their own to bring back to /VRT/. Onolumi, now ruling Queen of /VRT/ is said to be fond of these old technologies as well as their own tales and stories and is said to grant great favor to those that bring her ones that please her and many Robots, now making up a good portion of the Upper Class seem to actively seek them by any chance they can get in order to fulfill their Queens mission. Many people of different places have migrated to /VRT/ that share into these interests with the majority hailing from the lands of /tsun/ and the isle of /pyon/ and together with the descents of the Tribe of Hill make up the majority of the Land working towards the goals of gaining older technology. For that reason too, the Land sees many Smiths and Workshops dedicated to the Art of maintaining, repairing and enhancing these old technologies, wich has led to /VRT/ being known as the Place in the World of some of the finest craftsman. Many of these Workshops follow their own small deities instead of the major Deities of the land, believing their Deity to bring them the true enlightenment of their Arts. Besides quarrels here and there, the country is of a very peaceful nature to an almost frightening degree, with many believing that the way of "Holding it in" stemming from the Hill-Tribe in its older days might somehow be the cause of this.

Society
The Queen herself lives very secluded and is represented by a small Council that is ruling mostly in her Stead.
The Upper Class is made up mainly by Robots as well as descendants of the Hill-Tribe tho also earlier immigrants from amongst the Buckos of /tsun/ and champyons from /pyon/ can be found, besides them there is also the Representative of the individual Workshops, who mediates between the Workshops and brings their needs and demands before the Representatives of the Queen.
The middle and lower classes are a wild mix of many nationalities and immigrants, as well as the occasional Robots that prefer a more modest style of life, due to the open nature of the Country itself with a good portion being descendants of the Hill-Tribe, Buckos or Champyons that immigrated earlier than most.

Religion
Queen Onolumi is worshiped by all Robots to a fanatical degree, but is also the Patron of many who wish not to worship any of the other Deities or have a strong religious belief.
Amiya from the land of /tsun/ is mainly worshiped by immigrants from /tsun/ and they have more of a foothold in the Scholarly side of the country that focus on gathering history of the world and having most of their workshops focused on tools that aid in that procedure
Kiki from the land of /pyon/ is mainly worshiped by immigrants of /pyon/ and have a big focus on the local agriculture of the Country with their Workshops being mostly focused on that endeavor, tho they also have a side interest in defensive weaponry since they often have to defend themselves due to the controversial nature of their Chuuba in many peoples eyes. Their love for carrots is something frowned upon even by Queen Onolumi herself, but is still a thriving business due to the Robots actively encouraging the plantation of carrots for some unknown reason.
The worship of Hank Hill is strong in descends of the Hill-Tribe and many of the older immigrants of the country, and they have a big impact on the health industry, both mentally and physically, as well as the logistical infrastructure of the country with their workshops focusing on this. Many rumors claim that they use these footholds in the country to somehow suppress the emotions of the people, due to their worship having a strong focus of "holding it in".

Military
The primary focus of the /VRT/ military is focussed upon their Navy, wich is used actively as escorts for the many merchant ships of the country and is thus well-trained and maintained at all times.
The Ground forces in return tend to be rather small, with only the bare minimum maintained to keep order for the country. This however can lead to many underestimating these Forces, wich can be supplemented by the usually not involved Robots of the country. Each Robot, due to their nature of being made of metal as well as having no need for sleep or food, is able to handle many enemies at once and are known to be one of the worst enemies to face in any war of attrition or siege. They are however low in numbers and tend to not involve themselves in battle unless they deem it necessary.

Economy
The Economy of /VRT/ is flourishing, with a big focus of the country lieing in Trade around the Globe. Most merchants will travel for long stretches of time to sell goods around the World for profit and only returning once they gathered sufficient amounts of technologies for themselves besides their profits. With the workshop's industry producing lots of product besides that wich make for great export, the country experiences little poverty.

Chuubanite
The special Chuubanite in the Country mostly have an affinity for Hank Hill and seem to have many practical uses in medicine and is also said to radiate a calming Aura from them.
On very rare cases is Chuubanite found with an affinity towards Onolumi and its effects are unknown to the public due to Law requiring the selling of all found sources to the State and the hiding of or selling of it to other sources being punishable by law via death sentence. Rumors have it that it is used to build new Robots and the lack of it is the main reason why the Robots cannot truly procreate.
