When explorers explored the northern San'yuine coast they came upon a people who'd united themselves into a single empire but were technologically lagging. They'd built a viable bureaucracy to oversee their needs and developed their infrastructure to the limit of their capabilities.

Their technological laxity therefore had little to do with capability and more with desire. Having united the world (or at least the portion they cared about) what was then the Theocracy of Peperna the Holy Cow stagnated by the standards of the outside world. As far as they were concerned, however, the Theocracy had everything they could desire: A loving (albeit bovine) goddess, readily available learning and enough food to satisfy most of the populace.

Increased contact with the outside world starting about a century ago changed all that. New ideas filtered in from neighboring lands suggesting that the Theocracy might not have every social and cultural advantage. Visiting delegates made it abundantly clear that the Theocracy's level of education and know how wasn't exactly up to par either.

As these new factors weighed in people began asking for then demanding greater freedoms. Unfortunately at the time the Theocracy was led by a booby and his advisory council ruled by reactionaries. They responded by clamping down to maintain what power they could. It worked...for about ten years.... then exploded into civil war.

The 'rebels' won and established a republic, but having zero experience with democracy their ideals quickly fell by the wayside. In some ways the new government is worse than the old, for at least the old had the trappings of a benevolent goddess to comfort the people. The Bovine Republic is quickly trying to make up for lost ground as it storms into the modern era, but their concept of freedom is frightening, and they have yet to work through a xenophobic instinct borne from centuries of isolation.

Hello!

Briefly, I started playing NS back in 2006 .... then stopped a few months later as other interests and priorities took hold. To be honest I completely forgot NS existed until a few days ago when I came across an old link. One long, convoluted path later, here I am.

My knowledge of NS is somewhat limited and in some cases four years old, so feel free to give me a nudge from time to time.

While we have yet to formulate a policy regarding being eaten, our initial reaction is somewhat doubtful. We're willing to discuss the situation however. At a distance.

We're also quite willing to discuss a controlled exchange of information and ideas with our...friends...in Kosei.
