Saligia kingdoms as real life countries Pt.1

My dear Concordians, how have you been? Is your magic improving? I'm here to tell you something I've just discovered, so take a break from your studies and pay close attention. Are you ready?

Legend has it that Saligia, our world, was created by "The Creator" in the "magical realm" trying to mimic another world called "Earth." No one knows if this legend is true, but as a student at the Royal Academy of Concordia, I became deeply fascinated by this strange world called "Earth." So, I took all the free time I had (which, for some reason, seems to be quite a lot) and barricaded myself in the library to read and learn everything I could about this strange world from which Sagilia was allegedly created. But it wasn’t enough, so I went to annoy a little bit our beloved headmaster Lou (muahahahaha).

After almost getting myself kicked out of the academy for becoming Lou’s shadow, I managed to find the information I was looking for. So, to spare you the trouble I went through, I bring you everything I’ve discovered so far for your enjoyment.

Well, it turns out that "Earth" does exist, and the creatures that inhabit it, humans, are just like us—well, ALMOST like us. They don't have MAGIC! How are they able to live without magic? Anyway, let’s get to the important stuff. Earth is made up of several continents, which in turn are divided into countries, and there are so many of them—195 different countries! Each one with its own customs, traditions, foods, landscapes, languages, etc. I have no doubt I’ll investigate every single one of these countries because each one is a completely different world…

Well, I'm getting off track. It turns out that the 7 main kingdoms of Saligia (Invidia, Akedia, Qelsum, Avari, Luxure, Voleri, and Ira), along with the small Isle of Colde, where we study, have similarities with very specific countries from Earth! Do you want to know which ones? There we go then!

Kingdom of Invidia - The Netherlands

Invidia, known as the Land of Blooms. Where the flowers are not only those growing from the soil but also the people, especially Roy *wink wink*. Settlers crafted this land to be a garden of their very own, worthy of envy. A beautiful kingdom adorned with flowers of every color, Invidians specialize in silverwork and other crafts that require a delicate touch. Their main exports include gorgeous blossoms and ornate silverware.

And how are Invidia and the Netherlands similar? The Netherlands is a nation famous for its dedication to design, craftsmanship, and its floral industry, with a large export of flowers, especially tulips.

Kingdom of Akedia - Spain

Akedia, Land of Forests. Lovers of peace and indolence, this land was chosen for its napping qualities. The mild climate of this kingdom gives it a lush, green landscape. With so many relaxing resorts, this land attracts a large number of tourists. The former Kingdom of Tristitas falls under Akedian domain. Main exports relate to bedding.

Actually, this one is quite similar to a country named Spain. Spain is world-renowned for its pleasant climate, its green landscapes in the interior and northern regions of the peninsula, its relaxed culture (there is a stereotype that people in Spain sleep a lot; I'm not one to deny it, but it seems they have a custom of taking a few hours' nap after lunch, called "siesta"), and its great tourist appeal with an emphasis on relaxation, festive culture, and hospitality. Additionally, the country has a very strong textile industry, being one of the main global references in fashion. And the most curious thing of all is that in Spain, there are regions like the Basque Country and the former Valencian Countries, which resemble the kingdom of Tristitas, with their own language and unique customs, despite being part of the same country. Also the food in this country seems to be the best in their world, I'm dying to try it!

Kingdom of Qelsum - Norway

Qelsum, also known as the Land of Ice. Just hearing the name of this kingdom makes me cold, someone bring me a blanket please. Proud and disdainful of aggression, settlers chose this land for its defensive capabilities. A third of this land is covered in ice, making it a harsh environment in which to survive. Qelsans single-handedly control the post for all of the magical realm, and they also govern part of the former Kingdom of Vanum. They are known for their chocolate (the main reason I love this kingdom along with Toa hehe).

Qelsum has been difficult to identify in Earth since there were so many countries with the same cold and hasrh characteristics such as Sweeden, Finland, Iceland... But in the end I went with Norway. Norway is known for its stunning fjords, snow-capped mountains, and icy landscapes that evoke the harshness and beauty of Qelsum. This type of environment perfectly reflects a kingdom covered in ice and with a hostile climate. Also, I wanna highlight the chocolate aspect. It seems that the Nordic countries and Central Europe generally have excellent chocolate. However, I believe that "The Creator," while drawing inspiration from Norway for the conception of Qelsum, definitely also took inspiration from Belgium and its chocolate industry, integrating it into Qelsum to create the best chocolate in Saligia. And it’s no surprise, with all that cold weather, a good cup of hot chocolate is always appreciated.

Gosh this post is turning to be so long, and the last thing I want is having you all bored with this, so I guess I'll have to divide this in two posts. Soooooo see you all my beloved Concordians on the next post of "Saligia kingdoms as real life countries", in the next one I'll be covering Avari, Luxure, Voleri, Ira and our little island, Colde. Bye!!

Author's note: Obviously, none of this information has been confirmed by the developers and creators of the game; it’s just the opinion of a girl who’s way too bored, despite having too many things to do.

I'm thinking "Saligia" as a ship name for Dust x Horror x Cross x Killer x Nightmare x Error x Lust (long ship, I know XD)

It's an acronym for the Latin names of the Seven Deadly Sins invented in the Middle Ages

I'd love an opinion on that :]

Hey op how does it feel being the coolest dude out here
