The Republic of Sankt Ludwigshafen is a city state in southern Cibola. The city is a safe haven for Siseranist Saxons who have fled Natopia after the fall of the Principality of Walstadt. The name Sankt Ludwigshafen is derived from Prince Ludwig of Walstadt, who is revered as a saint.
International relations
Sankt Ludwigshafen has friendly relations with Alrig, to which it exports a significant share of its lumber and fish products. A regular line service between Sint Anna and Sankt Ludwigshafen is operated by the Apollonian Shipping Company. In order to support the fledgling republic, the Jingdaoese Empire subsidises imports from Sankt Ludwigshafen.
Economy
The economy of Sankt Ludwigshafen thrives on logging and fishing. The national currency is the Jingdaoese Kala. Whaling is a traditional practice of the inhabitants of Sankt Ludwigshafen is not economically viable anymore due to the high costs associated with whaling in the waters surrounding Sankt Ludwigshafen and the lack of an export market.
Religion
The national religion of Sankt Ludwigshafen is Siseranism. The particular branch of Siseranism that is prevalent in Sankt Ludwighafen is derived from the Siseranist period in Walstadt. The crucifixion of Elijah Ayreon by Sisera is one of the key theological pillars of the religion. In contrast to Jingdaoese Siseranism, Siseranism in Sankt Ludwig sees both Sisera and Elijah Ayreon positively. This is due to the influence of Natopian Bovinism. A central dogma of the religion is that while individuality and personal expression are good qualities to possess, in the end all people must be ready to be sacrificed for the stability of the state.
Prince Ludwig of Walstadt is celebrated as a saint in Sankt Ludwig. The stories about how he gained control over the principality are legends with which all Ludwigians are familiar. The return to Walstadt in the late days of Micras is also a common theme in Ludwigian Siseranism.
Feminism and LGBT rights
The state does not formally recognize differences between man and woman. However, the prominence of the Siseranist religion has led to some differences in the acceptance of behaviour in men and women. For example, ruthless and tyrannical behaviour is more often accepted in women than in men. Many leading positions are taken by women. An exception is the fishing fleet, which is dominated by men. This is however a dangerous industry which mourns many casualties each year.
LGBT rights are recognized, the story of the transgender Mrs Donders, who was one of the helpers of Sisera in the Hurmu Genocide is the basis for a doctrine of tolerance towards trans people. Homosexuality is not prevalent more or less in Sankt Ludwig society compared to other states on Micras, but is not often discussed. Marriage is open to all people over the age of 20.
