November 15th will be the day of Istrinia

So be it!

Edit: Pikatchoum, glad you're still with us. You should give a sign of life once in awhile, even when things irl are busy.

Well, that makes two of us fredval.

Here are some teasers for our futur readers from the Norland Empire, a different oriented Nation of the Istrinia region.

 

This is a small part of the Soderborg airport. Soderborg is the biggest City in the southern part of Norland and close to the border of petriknl's Nation Arcazzio.

I'd just like to introduce everyone to the Region of Istrinia. As you can see, the region is occupied by 11 nations, all with their own identites. Istrinia borders the nations of Croatia, Slovenia, and the Adriatic Sea to the South.

[dzgill 0]

More pictures (even if they are preliminary) - PLEASE! I just spent the last two hours reading this entire CJ and enjoyed every minute of it.

[Peng74 1]

Thanks to everyone's great comments. I think you'll like the CJ when it finally kicks off next month.

Not really a sneak peak, but i thought i'd keep you updated with whats going on in Lustria.

 

This years Lustrian Cup Final was another fantastic game. The Skova Crows, one of the leagues smaller teams, had battled hard to reach the final, where they faced the mighty Dubransk Gunners. Entering their sixth straight final, the Gunners were the hot favourites for this years trophy. Winning the last five seasons, and storming to the league championship this year, all bets were on them to do the double.

 

In front of a capacity crowd of 31,000, they didn't disappoint. . Despite going behind to a simple tap in from the Crows striker Tochilin, the Gunners soon found their stride, and dominated the game. This seasons top goalscorer, Ivanovich, put on a masterclass of ball control, turning the Crows defence inside-out to slot home his first goal bringing the Gunners level.

 

Thats how they went in at half time, but the second half was all Dubransk. Ivanovich powered home his second of the game in the 53rd minute, giving the Gunners the lead. The Crows battled on bravely, but they found themselves stuck in their own half, and in the 81st minute, Dubransk's captain, Denisov, sealed the game, with a thundering drive from outside the box.

 

So, Dubranks win their sixth straight Lustrian Cup, and are clearly the best team of the moment. Can any of the other teams raise their game next season, and offer a serious challenge to the Gunners? Join us here, on the Lustrian Broadcast Network to find out.

 

Goodnight!

It is obviously in the top left corner of the country...

[Mickebear 2]

Your region is just so beautiful... Mine is just about ready, apart from the capital region (comprises 4 towns), maybe I should post region pic here... but until later...

Fredval that looks

[lilou 1]

GO DUBRANSK GO !!!!! hihihihi

Why not a inter-istrinian regional tournament ????

Fred your region is more and more beautiful !!!!
Even if some forests and crops do not match from a map to another

You sill have a lot of work lol

[mrbisonm 1,620]

First....Fredval your region looks fabulous, love all the water around it. Excellent.

 

This is the last preview of the Norland Region before the Cj's beginning in 3 weeks, the most north-eastern part of Istrinia.

1. The City of Stromika or also known as the old City of Norden. Population of 78,288. This was the first settlement of the Norlanders in this region, some 800 years ago or so. It still has many ruins and today is the main city for festival and historical events.

 

2. Pehl, the real name is Sephra Pehl, is the Capitol City as most of you know by now. It contains the Government buildings and also the Emperor's Palace. It is the second largest City and has a population of 247,291. Here are the ruins of the first castle that ruled Norland  many years ago under the ruling of Emperor Olaf, the Immigrant.

3.Chrythal Soderborg is the largest City and the most modern one also. It has the sea and the airport. Situated at the southern bay of the large Schlomber lake which is directly connected with the Arco river of Arcazzio that leads into the sea (the southern Neighbor),and it has the potential to become the largest industrial City of the whole region of Istrina one day, but competitors are solid and only the futur can tell. Soderborg has a total population of 318,064 at this moment and growing steadily every year by a few thousands.

4. Aldasson is a big part of the Mountain range and only accessible through the famous Jochentrail, which unluckily is open only for 5 months or so because of the harsh weather conditions in the colder months of the year. Here is a town called Torn which still has a fair amount of original Istro-Romans, that used to live here before the Norlanders arrived. They have been living appart from the rest of the nation, enjoying their own culture that somehow reminds everyone of the southern neighbors. They also have been withstanding the Emperors since many centuries, but since this region of the cold mountains is not really of interest to today's Emperor, the Istro-Romans have been left alone most of the time.
Some say that a secret governmental institution of some kind is somewhere hidden in these parts, but nothing is for sure.

5. This is the area known as the Dark Forests of Holmvall. Here most of it has not even all be discovered by ground yet, since the forests are extremely dense and without very big machinery it is impossible to penetrate. This is the rich heritage of Norland and probably the financial back-up.

 

Stromika.....

 

 

Pehl, the Capitol....

 

 

Soderborg,the biggest City and the industrial Center of Norland

 

 

Aldasson, the mountainous range of the northern part of the region....

 

 

Holmvall and its mysterious forests....

 

 

Now let's all wait and see when the CJ starts and enjoy all the different Nations of Istrinia and their cultures and architectures, which should be quite interesting.

Make sure to be there and not miss a bit!
