The Background

Pichvi is a historical union between 3 nations (Hartl, Davslak, and Visel). The country has a great environment and culture; we have cool sights such as the 5-headed donkey (praise be), the beaches of Delta and Visel, and the cold, rainy mountains of Davslak. Here, we value good morals and family. Go to the tourism section to learn more about our glorious state's great sights! We are also a nation of industry and might!

Standard Pichvian was formed out of the Hartl language as a base and using other Pichvian languages for sertain words and grammar. It was created in the 18th century after the second full unification of Hartl, Davslak, Biu, Plata and Visel. Most of these people couldn't comunicate together well, so a language was made to unite them and make talking easier. During the Communist Revolution, the language underwent radical reforms: several letters were removed for being deemed “excesses,” spellings were simplified to match phonetics, and regional dialects were suppressed in favor of a unifying national standard. This is the version we use today.

OUR HISTORY:

The cultural and historical foundation of Pichvi begins with the ancient Kingdoms of Hartl, Visel, and Davslak, each with distinct identities: Hartl, the most populated; Visel, the local coastal power; and Davslak, known for its mountains, isolation, and spiritualism. These three rival kingdoms were first unified under the banner of the First United Kingdom of Pichvi. This unification enabled rapid expansion into surrounding territories, including Plata, Biu, and Ritler. However, internal strife and dynastic disputes fractured the royal house of Gerb, leading to the fall of the first kingdom and the rise of the Second Kingdom, formed after violent succession conflicts that only further destabilised the realm. In the early 20th century, a communist revolution overthrew the monarchy, installing a populist regime that aimed to abolish class divides. During this period, the Visel Free State declared independence, operating as a sovereign republic for five years before being reabsorbed into the nation after a violent 4-year-long conflict. Today, Pichvi is a socialist democracy, though somewhat riddled with political nepotism. Still, it stands united and proud!

OUR CULTURE:

Pichvian culture is very unique due to its regional diversity and complex history. The official language, Standard Pichvian, is widely spoken alongside various dialects rooted in Hartl, Davslak, and Visel origins. Religion plays a subtle role in daily life. This is because religion was banned during the communist era of the nation; currently the most popular region is Christianity. Notably, in the Delta region, a rapidly growing Five-Headed Donkey cult has taken root —originating from a donkey that lived in the Delta museum gift shop that somehow teleported to every known nuclear meltdown in history. The Donkey cult is now recognised as part of Delta's heritage, with nonbelievers being burnt at the stake.
