The Kingdom of Arcadia (Dutch: Koninkrijk Arcadië) is a wikibased country.

Since October 15, 2018, the country is present on the claimsmap of MCS, but it is intended to include the entire Jasonian Archipelago. This group of islands is counted among the Tapfer continent. The capital of Arcadia is Koningsrots, centrally located on the island Bella Insula.

The population of Arcadia consists of three tribes: Awarri, Batavii and Escomanii. Each tribe has its own cultural background and dependency. Despite this division, the kingdom does not have a federal system, but is a unitary state.

With the Act of Unification, Arcadia came into being as a kingdom under the government of a monarch from the House of Vinandy. The current monarch is Gustavus des Vinandy.


Name

For the unification of the tribes, Arcadia was more an indication for the islands. The islands that together form a utopian country of fruit, forests, meadow and clear water. It is thought that Arcadia stands for a paradisiacal and idyllic country. The Greek Αρκαδία (Arkadia) means sweetly unspoilt.

Another thought is that the name comes from the primal god Arca, who according to a lost and ancient mythology would be the basis of the creation of Arcadia.

It is striking that several Batavian kings wore the name "Arkadius".

Geography

The largest island of the archipelago is called "Insula Magna" (large island). This island is dominated by the mountain "Dulcis Mons" (sweet mountain), with a height of 3,418 m. This name owes the mountain to the excellent conditions for viticulture caused by the location of the mountain. When weather systems on the west end up on this mountain, the clouds roll just over the back of the mountain. In this way the clouds appear as mist on the east side of the mountain, which is ideal for viticulture. The grapes are sweeter than grapes elsewhere in the micras because of the ideal ratio of moisture and sunshine. Earlier, Dulcis Mons was known as Mt. Urojea.

Demographics

The population of Arcadia consists of several ethnic groups who largely see themselves as Arcadianen. Each group adheres to its own culture and traditions to a greater or lesser extent.

Ethnic groups in the Kingdom of Arcadia
Ethnicity Population size Percentage
Awarri 148.000 24.8%
Batavii 206.000 34.6%
Escomanii 171.000 28.7%
Frisii 37.500 6.3%
Jingdaoese 3.500 0.6%
Taxii 27.900 4,7%
Other 1.750 0.3%
Total 595.650 100%

Of all groups, the Jingdaoes are the largest foreign group, because Batavians from the present and former Batavian areas are seen as belonging to the Batavii. In the case of others, several minorities are of foreign origin.

Awarii

The Awarii is the tribe consisting of former Calbain and Maraguans. Together they form the Awarii or Orientals. Their Celtic culture has influences from Jasonian and Matbaan cultures. The Awarii live mainly on the island of Maraguo and the eastern part of Nelaga.

Batavii

To the Batavii are considerd, all Batavians who emigrate to Arcadia and who had already arrived in the time of Maraguo Vrystaat. Characteristic is their Dutch-Germanic culture. They mainly live on the western part of Nelaga.

Escomanii

The Escomanii consist of Gasconians and Stormarkians. They have partly come along with the Batavians, but there are also refugees who have come after the fall of the Kingdom of Batavia. The name of the Escomanii refers to the Es, with which this tribe builds their houses and their ships. The tribe lives on the northern islands and the northeastern part of Nelaga.
