Overview
Nations in Orynthia usually have an obvious parallel to real-life, oftentimes with some minor deviations in its history, and a mystical twist for their day-to-day lives.
It would be very easy to make a one-note static fantasy world; however, much like our world, Orynthia possesses a large variety of cultures and nations, each one -we hope- will be three-dimensional and most of all fun in its representation.
We don't want an 'elf-nation' or an 'orc-nation'; things don't work that way in real-life, after all. The countries themselves also have their fair-share of diversity; however, we still do like to assign a 'theme' to each one at the very least.

Lumina Inari
Overview
Lumina Inari, officially the State of Lumina Inari, is a hyper-developmentalist neon-drenched nation. Where the only thing more important than its traditions is the promise of a shining future, literally. Its soft-power is almost second to none in the world, with its cultural exports reaching practically everyone in the globe. And though its hard-power remained more flimsy, its unfortunate re-militarization remains implemented since the recent invasion.
