About Toutanglom:
⛧ Toutanglom has a deep obsession with biology, having created over 700,000 different biological agents, making it one of the most feared powers in Eldervale.
⛧ The nation is filled with secret underground research facilities, scattered across the land and heavily classified.
⛧ While known for deadly bio-weapons, Toutanglom also develops biological agents that enhance and support the human body.
⛧ Aside from its allies, Draviskas and Raginheim, Toutanglom maintains tense relationships with most neighboring states.
⛧ The terrain is mostly flat and covered in cyanoherba, a unique grass that appears light blue but shifts to sunlight yellow depending on lighting.
⛧ At the heart of Trifulum stands the massive Solinium Tower, rising over 3 kilometers tall. It resembles a living organism and houses a radiant artificial "biological sun" at its peak.
⛧ The Sea of Song is constantly contested between Toutanglom and Senas Tuath, leading to devastating conflicts such as: Great Pelagic Succession, War on Open Water, Oceanic Coalition War, Blue Boundary War…These wars often contributed to the collapse of past Tanglomi regimes.
⛧ Tanglomi people eat five meals a day, believing it strengthens their immune system.
⛧ Parts of Solangor and Molunir prefectures contain a toxic dead land, where nothing can grow and survival is nearly impossible.
Brief modern history:
I. THE TOUTANGLOM UNITED REPUBLIC AND THE CIVIL WAR (1166–1183)
The Toutanglom United Republic endured for nearly two centuries before collapsing into civil war in 1167 between two major factions: the Murrani (purple, South) and the Croci (yellow, North). Tension over political power had always lingered.
On 5 November 1166, leader Upsed Uhtavis Upsedis was assassinated by an unknown hitman. After four months of deadlock over succession, the Croci launched a coup, declared themselves rightful rulers, and sought to diminish Murrani influence. The Murrani established their own government in the South - civil war ensued.
The war lasted nearly two decades. Millions perished; over half of both regions' territory was devastated; several cities were completely wiped out. The war ended with Croci's defeat at the Battle of Pelsa (1183). Murrani emerged dominant.
II. THE LOUFIR (LOSS) AND THE MUTANMENUS (1183–1193)
Years of conflict left the republic in total ruin. Famine spread across the entire state; crime surged; homelessness reached catastrophic levels - the Loufir (Loss). Corpses accumulated in empty fields, forming "mountains of corpses" (Mutanmenus). The largest recorded Mutanmenus contained approximately 1,500 individuals.
The reconstruction initiative Toutiuf Recuprum repaired wartime damage and rebuilt trust. Biological research initiatives resumed, strengthened through cooperation with Draviskas.
III. HELIX-9 AND THE ZETA FLU (1193–1195)
In 1193, Helix-9 was completed - a rapidly spreading biological agent. Symptoms progressed from flu-like to throat decay, skin deterioration, blindness, bone erosion, and death within eight hours of the final stage. Natural immunity could develop.
On 15 and 23 January 1195, specially engineered birds carried Helix-9 across the Thauris border (unified Hleidisland, Raginheim, Morthen). The Zeta Flu pandemic caused Thauris's swift collapse. Effectiveness proven.
IV. THE MEITIUM TOUTS UPSANNOM AND THE FIFTH SEA OF SONG WAR (1199–1224)
1199: Meitium Touts Upsannom - national program to improve society and strengthen cultural identity. 1201–1205: Meim-Upsed-Planom improved logistics and transportation. 1204: Port construction began to rival Senas Tuath - setting stage for extended trade war.
On 27 June 1224, an explosion at Rakkiom Port destroyed half the facility. Certain of Senas Tuath's responsibility (denied), Toutanglom declared war four days later - the Fifth Sea of Song War. Lasted approximately two months. Three major and fifteen minor Senas Tuath ports were severely damaged; Vesklum and Befiu also heavily damaged on Toutanglom's side. Mutual free port operation agreed. Toutanglom's goal of destroying more than nineteen percent of Senas Tuath's ports failed.
V. THE GENETU PENTEROM ("THE ZOO") (1254)
On 1 January 1254, the Genetu Penterom - the largest biological facility ever constructed, developed over nearly three decades - officially entered operation. Central site for producing biological weapons. Exact location highly classified; general consensus suggested beneath the Central South sector.
VI. THE FIRST GREAT WAR OF ELDERVALE - TOUTANGLOM THEATRE (1272–1273)
On 11 March 1272, a massive fire broke out along the Abern-Toutanglom border. Abern declared war the next morning - the First Cross-Frontier War. The surprise attack forced Toutanglom to retreat. On 6 May, Senas Tuath joined the war. The southern front collapsed; the naval front deteriorated.
Toutanglom deployed incomplete biological agents (Ufaro-12, Meitas-03, Brutan-DY) via artificial flying animals. Within a week, enemy forces fell into disorder and panic.
Abern shifted to guerrilla warfare - hit-and-run attacks, ambushes, sabotage. Toutanglom struggled to eradicate Senas Tuath forces. On 25 December, Toutanglom tested a small autonomous flying device distributing Helix-11 (enhanced successor to Helix-9) - devastating pandemic destabilized both nations.
On 1 January 1273, a massive offensive was launched. Abern sought peace on 15 February. Treaty signed in Toutanglom's capital: substantial reparations, cession of ten percent of territory, strict non-aggression, Senas Tuath naval activity reduced to seventy percent below pre-war levels.
First recorded use of biological weapons on the battlefield. Victory elevated regional standing.
VII. THE COALITION AND THE FIRST NORTHERN DEFENSE WAR (1279–1280)
Toutanglom forged a defensive alliance with Draviskas and Raginheim (the "Coalition") - united less by mutual trust than shared apprehension of Hleidisland.
Open war erupted on 7 November 1279. Coalition internal divisions - distrust, poor coordination, conflicting priorities - resulted in repeated failures. Biological agents proved ineffective against Hleidisland's disease-prevention expertise. Treiktur fell on 3 June; Ulkanim on 6 June.
Battle of the Saprissa River (12 June – 4 November 1280) - Tanglomi defensive victory at catastrophic manpower cost. Toutanglom accepted defeat. Peace treaty forced cession of eight percent of remaining territory and massive reparations.
VIII. THE TSFU COUP AND THE SECOND NORTHERN DEFENSE WAR (1280–1282)
Double defeat provoked condemnation of leadership. Karris Veltiom was deposed. Internal Murrani clan divisions erupted. Separatist movements surged in formerly annexed territories - regions swiftly rejoined Abern and Senas Tuath.
Northern provinces rose in revolt, nearly igniting a second civil war. The clandestine ultranationalist Trumperak Sloiga Feretrum Uisperiem (TSFU) orchestrated a coup. On 20 November 1282, TSFU proclaimed itself the new governing authority. Karris Veltiom Rastufais assumed leadership. The Sakarater Toutam programme restored social stability through employment expansion, civilian production revival, and cultural development.
IX. THE SECOND GREAT WAR OF ELDERVALE - TOUTANGLOM THEATRE (1291–1294)
Driven by desire to reclaim lost territories, Toutanglom declared war on Hleidisland (28 October 1291). Tanglomi forces regained most former lands within weeks. Peace offer rejected. A second defensive victory at Saprissa River (December – 2 April 1292) forced Hleidisland to halt its advance.
Toutanglom deployed the newest biological agents - SILENUS-9 and Vireo. Even Hleidisland's medical systems struggled. Advance stalled due to exhaustion.
Toutanglom declared war on Senas Tuath and Abern (30 April 1292). Widespread biological attacks and food supply destruction caused rapid territorial losses. Advance halted when Abern reverted to guerrilla tactics and Senas Tuath destroyed key ports.
More than 800,000 prisoners of war were transported to research facilities for biological experimentation. Hleidisland retaliatory massacres at Brechthalla and Nerfinium (15–20 July 1293) - deep psychological scars.
After three years with no decisive breakthroughs, all belligerents exhausted. Toutanglom signed Pax of Seraphic (5 July 1294). Northern territories devastated. Second Sakarater Toutam programme initiated.
X. CLONING ARMY AND THE SURIS STATUE (1296–1320)
1296: Suris Statue - enduring national symbol - fully restored. By 1320, Toutanglom completed the first generation of cloning army - genetically modified to surpass standard soldiers. Prohibitively expensive, produced only in limited numbers.
XI. THE FALERIIIA ISLAND CRISIS AND THE PRELUDE TO THE THIRD GREAT WAR (1332–1351)
18 February 1332: Faleriiia Island Crisis - a Senas Tuath vessel docked without authorization. After a month of tense negotiations, agreement reached: ship docked in error; Senas Tuath pledged advance notification.
The Post-Pax era became a period of sustained societal, economic, military, and cultural strengthening. The government consistently emphasized vigilance.
1349: Toutanglom completed development of the most destructive biological weapon system - composite agents: Virudom Nerkhul, Nerkhul, Ullun-7, and Mortud-X. Rapid transmissibility, fatal outcomes within hours. Among the most controversial and horrifying weapons ever conceived.
30 June 1351: Marrukis Staiis Pompoiis elected head of state, continuing national development until the outbreak of the Third Great War.
Idealology: Terminal Cynicism
Terminal Cynicism is a prolonged political ideology that takes as its only clarity the simple, hollow fact that everything will end. To build anything with the expectation of permanence, it insists, is the height of arrogance and stupidity, and so the government promises nothing. Every policy flows from the quiet acceptance of the coming ruin, and society stratifies itself not by wealth or virtue but by how deeply one has accepted the approaching doom, and how skillfully one navigates the small, inevitable betrayals that precede it. Beauty, in this worldview, dwells only in tragedies, in ruins, in dissonance and unresolved chords that never find peace. Betrayal is not a sin; every promise ever made was only a lie waiting to be exposed by time or circumstance. To beg for mercy after a betrayal, to weep for forgiveness, is blasphemy - one must simply accept the consequences without pleading. The end of the world is not feared; it is anticipated with exhausted gratitude. The only meaningful goal left in a doomed world is to outlast - simply to be the last thing standing when everything else has already fallen. Trust no one. Expect nothing. Be surprised by nothing. Hope is dismissed as a delusion, the anesthetic numbness that keeps people from seeing clearly; instead, Terminal Cynicism offers a colder comfort: that nothing matters. And in that absolute meaninglessness, there is a perverse liberty - if nothing matters, then one is free to face the doom with whatever grim dignity one can muster, even as an empty thing, a hollow vessel waiting for the dark. Its deepest doctrine reserves itself for the ultimate act of cosmic betrayal: the abandonment by any conceivable higher power. If gods exist, they created a world of suffering, gave their creations the capacity to love and trust, and then watched in silence as those creations tore each other apart. This is the Original Betrayal. No one is coming to save humanity. No one ever was. And in the end, when all have died, one will be proven correct in their own suspicions - and that thin, bitter correctness will be the only thing left.
