The Nation of Trinitarium

Trinitarium

Trinitarium was founded by Trinitarius, known for his involvement in the bringing of Christianity to the land. One theory of the nation's name is that it is named for the Trinity. Christians in Trinitarium are Orthodox Christian (thinking on whether they should be Eastern Orthodox like Greeks or Russians or Oriental Orthodox like Coptics and Ethiopians), though the Catholics have a stable church.

Trinitarius had founded his own dynasty which still rules today, today's ruler is a Queen. Queen (may change to Empress possibly) Marina is the current ruler of Trinitarium, taking the throne from her father who recently passed away.

Some of Trinitarium's people still keep their faith, many go to church services still. Christianity is the state faith but all faiths are respected. Trinitarium's Queen's mother is still living, she lives in a mansion in another part of the state.

Trinitarium is an absolute monarchy under the Queen. The Church does not have power like the government, it mainly keeps to its spiritual needs.

Trinitarium's Queen lives in the Citadel of the Forerunner (St. John the Baptist). The Citadel is decorated with iconic and mosaical art, a mosaic of St. John the Baptist holding his head (he was beheaded, thanks to Herod and others) greets visitors. Also living in the citadel are some ministers, servants and the spiritual advisor of the Queen who assists her in spiritual things.

The Queen has siblings, she was the eldest child and took power. Before, only men could have the throne, thanks to some revisions, women could too. The current Queen was raped once and had children, one daughter from the man who raped her, he was disposed of. Her illegitimate daughter, named Katherine (may change) lives with the Queen in the Citadel. She is doing well in her life but if she could take the throne is unknown.

And this is some info on my nation of Trinitarium. When I think of more info, I may be able to post it. I am your average newbie to NS, I suppose. Any assistance in learning this game would be good. I hope to do well here on NS. Thank you for your time in reading all this.

Trinitarium has its own Elizabeth Bathory, her name was Helena Maron (may change). She was known for taking girls and other young females, similar to Bathory and how she did. Helena was later found out and killed, however not by authorities but by her own father. The story was written by John of Trinitarium, it was a real story and John wrote it down so people could learn of it. The father of Helena Maron is said to have constantly prayed for forgiveness for his killing of his own daughter.

Helena's tomb can be seen by many, it also holds the weapon known as ''The Sword of Death'' which is what Helena's father used to kill her, her blood still stains it and can be clearly seen.

John's account of the story was accepted, it was an accurate one. It is known that the ruler at the time took an interest in reading it.

I may dispose of this from my nation's history, I am still thinking on it.

As I said before, I may dispose of this Helena Maron story from my nation.

A man known as Armentarius created The Illustrations, with pictures of things like Helena Maron or her favourite, Lydia. Lydia was a little girl who was Helena's sexual favourite. Other illustrations were included as well. Also written down was the Poems of Helena Maron, including some love poems to Lydia.

The Illustrations were made separate from the Poems. The story of Helena Maron is still known in Trinitarium.

Armentarius did not compile the Poems, it was Arcanius who complied them.

The tomb of Lydia is not with Helena, Lydia died much later than Helena did.

How is my introduction to my nation so far? Can some people tell me please? Also, I may delete the posts on the story of Helena Maron, I don't know if I want to keep it in my nation's history or what not.
