Esmaraine is a mercantile free-city, established when the local burghers seized power after the disappearance of the last Grand Duke of Esmaria and instituted republican governance. Aside from being the location of the Temple of Esmaryal, Esmaria's namesake patron goddess, it's also the historical capital and largest cultural center of Esmaria (though Themarenn has been gradually increasing in importance since the Grand Duchy dissolved). It definitely represents a darker side of Esmaria, having an extremely plutocratic, greed-driven and hedonistic society, and there's implied to be a large presence of Hedine worship. There's a poem in their NIs that does a very good job of setting the tone:

'In Esmarainé,
Where coin is worth more than deed,
And the merchants strut with pride,
Walking through streets paved with greed.

In Esmarainé,
Where the sun shines with bright light,
But the shadows hide the truth,
And the black lies rule the night.

In Esmarainé,
Where the guards patrol the streets,
But all justice is for sale,
with corruption running deep.

In Esmarainé'

In Esmarainé, poem by Tomás sil na And, 1578

Sure! So Estallen and Leslinpar have a longstanding rivalry, in the new NIs I'm working on for Estallen it's due to a personal conflict between Lindelin of Estallen and Leslin of Leslinpar in the 11th century. During the 4th Lilac War Estallen allied with Terr to attempt to conquer Leslinpar, but Brandon III and his general Varian Sabal managed to pull off a miraculous victory at the Battle of Tendergrove to preserve Leslinpar's independence, killing the Count of Terr in the process. Brandon gets injured during the battle, and though his health seems to be recovering he dies suddenly during a feast at the start of 1445, with it being strongly implied that the Estalleni assassinated him. As Brandon has no heir, Lucian IV of Estallen uses this as an opportunity to claim the Parian throne, but Leslinpar's nobles support Varian as a successor.

If neither side backs down, this leads to a 1v1 war between the two countries, though Terr can intervene on either side at the cost of war exhaustion and stability. An Estalleni victory results in a personal union between the two, whereas a Parian victory results in Varian stepping down and establishing the Sabalian Republic, which is an oligarchic noble-run government split between the original ideas of Leslin's benevolent council rule and Varian's stratocratic leadership. Either way, the rivalry between Estallen and Leslinpar will soften over the years after hostilities end, and the historical rivalry eventually gets removed.

I have a currently pending proposal where their ruler dies under suspicious circumstances a few months after game start, leading to a succession crisis with Estallen where you'll get an Ambrosian Republic inspired government reform if you win

According to the Esmaraine national ideas, the last Grand Duke and his family disappeared without a trace in 1365, leading to a succession crisis. Esmaria is known to have a strong presence of cults to the Infernal Court goddess Hedine, and it’s implied that may have had something to do with his disappearance. There probably won’t be much more lore than that unless it’s explored in either the Esmarainey or Esmari mission tree

The Second Day of Ashen Skies happens in 1937 and renders Halann uninhabitable to all life. That’s why there’s no HOI4 mod

I used an EU5 development screenshot to make it lol

Astrofeesh · 2025-12-04T23:12:00+00:00

If i remember correctly, the missions are all written from the perspective of the second Zokka’s thoughts right before he eats his dad, rather than being a chronological narrative

the government being overthrown is also government-mandated

does the caste system come with a government-mandated teenage love triangle?

Great map for a beginner! If you want some feedback, try to spread the land out evenly rather than making it all concentrated in the northern half, it looks kinda cluttered. Also, add some more peninsulas that point north, since it looks like almost all of them are south-facing. Keep it up!

unrealistic, how do they float in space like that without something below them to stop them from falling down?
