Sozy is a vast country with varying landscapes and cities, noticeably different cultures and above all vastness. To make things look more organised we have divided the geography section in 3 parts: [http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Sozy#Continental_Sozy  Continental Sozy],[http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Sozy#Island_Sozy  Island Sozy] and [http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Sozy#Overseas_territory  Overseas territories].

 

 

===Continental Sozy===

 

<big>'''Caput Mundi'''</big>

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Capital City of Caput Mundi is [[Caput Mundi]]-city, also the capital and financial centre of the [[Sozy | Sozian nation]].

 

<big>'''Èskia Sozy and Werbia Sozy'''</big>

 

Located in the North of the mainland [[Èskia Sozy]] is the largest province on the mainland, life is slightly less expensive and tensed than it is in [[Caput Mundi]]. [[Werbia Sozy]], located in the South of the mainland is famous because of the annual [[yacht race]].

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

'''<big>Dreje Sozy</big>'''

 

[[Dreje Sozy]],  is the Eastern mountain area of [[Sozy]]. I became part of  [[Sozy]] in [[20th Century Sozy | 1912]].

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you leave the mainland by boat and go east you end up in [[Northern Sozy]], located along the shoreline of [[sunset straits]].  

 

 

The sandy coast of [[Northern Sozy]] is the centre of all major regional cities, in the North there’s a swampland and grasslands, a notoriously conservative region as known by others. The middle part used to be forests, before heavy industries came. The South is a warm, pleasant region, with a mix of the [[Vrancian]] and the [[Sozian]] culture.

===Overseas territory===

 

<big>'''Auslà Sozy'''</big>

 

This new region, previously an uninhabited lowland, is now a centre of trading and gambling. [[Auslà Sozy]] is a perfect mix for a businessman, having an huge office block in the city and a chalet back in the former does not need to be a luxury.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The landscape is dominated by pine trees and tiny lakes where it isn’t urban. In the urban areas, the landscape is dominated by a skyline of office buildings.

 

 

[[Auslà Sozy]]  has a Dfc climate (Sub-artic, severe winter, no dry season, cool summer)

 

 

The capital is [[Þulæfgoð]], named after a huge Sozian international trading company: [[Þulæf]].

| The [[Socialist International Party]] is made up out of post-communist groups. They are not extremely popular. Their radical ideas about pacifism and solidarity are not generally seen as disturbing. But their views on the economy are. They openly advocate issues Sozians generally don't, high taxation (instead of charity and individual initiative), equality (instead of equal values), state planning of economy and life (instead of free market economy and a commercial housing sector). The "red disease" is a popular word for people who vote Socialist in their young years and do otherwise later in their life. Communism kept Sozy in an authoritarian grip before, over which [http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/20th_Century_Sozy two civil wars] were fought out.

| The [[Sozian Honour Party]] is feared or favoured. They do not really have a party program. “Their issues are the people”, the party is extremely Nationalist. It is moderate on economic issues, but believes social life should be exactly formed to the Sozian tradition. Unlike many Nationalist groups around the world the Sozian Honour Party is not against emancipation, abortion or euthanasia. They do believe that Sozy should return to its pure form. The say they are not racist, but they want to exclude other ethnic groups from political and economic life in Sozy by giving independence to “unSozian areas”, like [[Dreje Sozy]] and [[Vrancian Sozy]]. They do believe in the death penalty, also for common criminals. They also believe in a strict immigration policy. They believe the environment should be better protected and believe that destroyers of the environment should be hung. The Sozian Honour Party keeps its yearly march in [[Caput Mundi]], where they show respect to fallen comrades in the stuggle against both Communism and Libertarianism. Their main support is in the country though, and growing amongst the Sozian youth.

 

 

 

 

<b>A friendship with a Sozian:</b>, Sozians often seem to foreigners as closed-minded and diseased by various of mental disorders. Sozians are reserved when it comes to talking to strangers. In the Sozian society there’s a “perfection image” how a perfect Sozian should work on both his mental and physical capabilities, this cause them difficulties to have “ordinary talks” especially with people they do not know. A familiar relationship with Sozians is therefore seem as difficult, but finally it is worth it. Sozians are extremely loyal to their friends, this is part of an ages old philosophy of loyalty, if you’re finally a good friend of a Sozian, you will soon be accepted by his or her (usually small) group of friends as well. Sozians are not actually rude and unemotional, but they do not feel that showing that to others they do not know is normal. <b>Direct reserve people?</b>, yes, Sozians are known to be very direct, another part of their culture, lying is seen as a terrible shame, really terrible. If you seriously ask Sozians on their personal views, they will give them, but they may not always consider the effects of replying negatively…

 

<b>Egalitarian and Emancipated:</b> , As said before Sozians strive for a “perfection image”, which has nothing to do with looking like the people in cosmetic commercials. Egalitarianism in Sozy is different from what you may expect, this “perfection image” is what they see as normal, one is expected to be sophisticated, intelligent, loyal, respectful, culturally aware and well taken care off. They have problems accepting sub-cultures and anyone that does not strive for the “perfection image”. Even though there are a lot of economical gaps in Sozy, socially they want the society to be egalitarian. They address their bosses with his/her first name. People that try to distinguish themselves as socially different (better) aren’t really liked. Sozians generally hate asocials and “nobles” on the other side, also extravagant lifestyles are looked at with suspicion. Sozians are very emancipated compared to European cultures, which does explain the little interest of Sozians in both Conservatives and Feminists. Much of the emancipation needed (according to Sozians) in other cultures, is natural in the Sozian culture. There is no speaking of that women would be paid lower salaries or less rights. It is not something they’re bothered with much either, it is just natural for Sozians, like the acceptance of one’s sexual orientation.

 

<b>Utilitarian</b>, if it is of no use, why have it? Sozian houses are simple and functional, with little decoration. Presents at birthdays are not common, one’s help and loyalty are more appreciated. Sozians like everything to be suited in order to reach perfection, mental and physical sloth are seen as threatening and asocial .The utilitarian nature of Sozians makes it easy for them to find practical solutions, but Sozians hate temporary solutions.

 

<b>Organized</b>, Sozians live with a clock in their brains. Accuracy, precision and exact time are important. Sozians prefer to do things from A to B, and not A and B through each other. They like to plan, and get really annoyed if someone confuses them in their planning. If you want to become hated by Sozians: disturb them around 6 O clock, which is dinner time (the largest meal is in the beginning of the day, though).

 

 

 

 

[[Sozy]] is home to many languages. No less than 20 languages are spoken in [[Sozy]]. The native language of a person is extremely important. It is expected of people to know multiple languages. Although  [[Central Sozian Languages | (General) Sozian]] is the only official national language, there are many more languages spoken and used as a regional administrative language or/and as a regional official language.
