Overview

The Karelan Democracy of Rejistania, also known as 'the Rejis' is a peaceful, sports-loving and semi-socialist, semi-capitalist nation in the region of FIFA.

The Rejis is an island, known for its tropical climate. Rainforests and fields are covering most of the surface. Most cities are on the coasts, Sike is a remarkable exception. The northern part (nanti simu) as well as the southern part (nanti kansu) are the most densely populated, the central part (nanti lik~hat) however has only a few cities. The rejistanian national anthem is Rejistaniha'ki'kaletri.

The Rejis is inhabitated by different peoples, tribes and ethnic groups, most important are the Majuveda, Minokaje from the nanti simu, the Hito and Jis from nanti ligat and the Isesi and Trs from Nanti kansu. Ehila~o and Seleke do not belong to one nanti, through emigration and the need to flee during historical wars, they are found everywhere in Rejistania. The main religion in Rejistania is inikresaism, a religion which believes that the everything in the world consists of the two principles 'rise' and 'fall', which are represented by the gods Relekekansa and Jaortirkansa. Despite this simple general idea (maybe even because of its simplicity) the religion is split in several confessions. Buddhists and atheists are the biggest religious minorities.

The Rejistanian capitol Sike has no economical or cultural importance at all. The economical and cultural center is KaMaRi kali, which is by far the biggest city in Rejistania. Rural exodus created a few important cities: KaMaRi kali (which is the abbreviation of Kalimnintan-Maiju-Riandu), Hetkali, Na~ovi kali, Najajara kali, Kalisimu and Sijitalatirikimidateme kali.

History

For a long time, Rejistania was governed in a democratic, but unusual way. The nation however lacked a certain unity, except for the times, when the rejistani national teams in soccer or field hockey played. The first Lentine Hangila/Hank~hila Sede (the Trsi g became k~h when the seleken alphabet was officially recognized for the sake of an easier transliteration) ruled for almost 30 years despite her old age. After her death, the position of the first lentine changed at nearly every election. The political instability was used by the temple of Karela to gain influence and eventually overthrow the government. This event was called Vinali Tikira Revolution, because the revolution took place after the third place playoff of World Cup 21. During the time of Karela, basic rights were curtailed and va'karela'ny used to make the people happy despite that and content with politics, which emphasize the defense. During that time, the former motto "Xkeja'tan, Lik~hat'tan, korona'tan" (tolerance, peace, prosperity) was replaced by "Divensi mi'aru hetaki veka altenany" (Defense is by far the best attack). The karelan government however was overthrown in another very rejistani coup after the "lasane" was defeated in the final of World Cup 25 (since this started with riots after the defeat against Starblaydia the revolution is called "vinali revolution"). After the vinali revolution, again a Kalesic democracy was established, however the High Priest of Karela remained ceremonial head of state.

Culture

Rejistania has 15 recognized languages with different alphabets and even more different peoples. Rejistanian cultural politics therefore are based on ensuring tolerance and protecting the diversity of the nation. The high amount of processions in ceremonial costumes and other festivities reminds of RL-Bali. Inikresaistic celebrations are nearly always referring to mystic stories like the defeat of the Tahiakan and the dates often differ between each nanti.

Rejistanian musical tastes also differ between the different peoples, but some bands like N.Ixi Ni and Kurudi Ri are famous in entire Rejistania. Some people joke that rejistani music is used as method of torture in other nations.

National holidays are New year (1st of January), the Revolution Day on the 9th of July, the Day of the Independence on the 17th of September and Sede-Day (27th of December, it was put on this date not because of Hank~hila Sede's birth, but because on this date, an important inikresaist ceremony takes place and the separation of temple and state forbids religious holidays).

Sports

Rejistanians are known for their dedication to soccer. The national team, the Orange-Blues are sometimes seen as the country does not dissolve in civil war.

World Cup 13 was hosted by Rejistania and Cockbill Street, but the home advantage could not help the national team. The 'young Orange-Blues', the Rejistani U21 team, won the fifth Under-21 World Cup in Total n Utter Insanity. The team still lacked a catchy nickname in the 10th installment, where they won without giving up a goal. They repeated this unbelievable achievement in U21WC11. Most national players play or played in the H1SR. The most important media for reports is the radio. While Rejistanians have dozens of radio stations in their local languages, there is even one in English for foreigners: Radio RejisCAST.
