Quick Summary
Hendalarsk is a democratic socialist federation located in northwestern Levantia; it is predominantly based around a heavily altered German culture and language(s), with significant influence from a large Hungarian minority and the Nünsyak, a currently very barely-fleshed-out indigenous group who can be thought of as akin to, but entirely unrelated to, a more nationally marginalised form of Basques (they're a language isolate and their ancestral lands are locked in conflict with mining consortia). Hendalarsk largely remained neutral during the Second Great War, albeit with substantial military assistance to Faneria, and conceives of itself as a rising power committed to multilateralism and still only scratching the surface of its enormous demographic and economic potential.

Future ideas
Major importance
- The entire history of Hendalarsk
- The Hendalarskara Catholic Church
- Hendalarskara politics
- A full list of even vaguely relevant settlements - about 500 names ideally!
Moderate importance
- Fleshing out the Hendalarskaras Bundesliga
- Hendalarskara transport infrastructure
- Hendalarskara Civil War
- More geography
- More culture lore - at the minute there's almost no indication of what it actually means to be Hendalarskara on a day-to-day basis
Quirky bits and vibes
- Resurrecting "Five in Hendalarsk" in some capacity
- Mass phobia of cinema among the Khunyer
- Films?
- People one-shots - a serial killer, musicians, historical figures
