[align=center][div style="bgcolor=; border: none; width: 360px; margin-top: -5px; color:#262626;"][align=left][justify][size=8pt][font=verdana]okay so this is private plotting for that sick arranged marriage plot and this is rOUGH AS HELL so pls tell me what you want added i will continue to edit this
[spoiler=THE GENERAL GIST]the marriage plot is essentially an arranged plot between four kingdoms (one focused on technology the others on religion, culture and military + more possibly?? i can't count); these kingdoms are old and while in the modern times they've been heavily left to their own devices because they are simply too aggressive and the 500 year old war that was raged between them has kept outsiders at bay. no one really knows how the war started (well, mostly because we haven't really discussed that whoops) but the idea is that the kingdoms have all reached their breaking points and have crafted a peace treaty, the thing is that they need to give up something to prove that they are serious about this and thus have offered each of their most influential people to form a polygamous marriage in order to show that they can come together and work in harmony instead of the constant war that they've only ever known. - asyli[/spoiler][spoiler=CHARACTERS]✦ heloise "fae" hreidmarson thauthoian & lián zémÃÂÂn (連澤民) / ahn jaehyun, model & actor / "________" / asyli

✦ they kept their system of government. the members of the imperial family all treat their subjects rly well though, so rarely is there any conflict. the people are loyal to the emperor or empress or empress dowager, or whoever is currently in power. rebellions (though they only occur maybe once in a blue moon) are usually quickly stamped out.
✦ lián tiānyòu is the third imperial prince. he has two older brothers, one older sister, and one younger brother.
✦ tiānyòu's brother is the current emperor, since their father and mother passed away a few years back due to an illness.
✦ each "state" of the empire is ruled by two people - a general and a lord/lady. lords/ladies are... people skilled in the arts and gifted with languages, and were then chosen by the members of the imperial family to help them rule.
✦ lián (连), the family name, is not only the name of the dynasty, but it is also a verb in mandarin meaning "to connect". the empire is very accepting of other peoples and culture, and so.... hence the name. they understand that they're stronger together, so they won't try to force anything on anyone, and people of different cultures and backgrounds manage to coexist and it's pretty nice tbh.
✦ the power always goes to the eldest child of the next generation, and the younger siblings are expected to help guide the eldest. people marrying into the imperial family take on the family name... they're given a new name, but are allowed to keep the one they had before as well, but will be addressed by their new name in like... court meetings and whatnot. it's always going to be a chinese name because the family respects tradition.... and china is the oldest country in asia so.... yeah... idk why people think american history is hard... america's an actual fetus compared to china.
✦ they're definitely not the most technologically advanced bunch, but they have access to some technology... you can't expect them to be in the dark about everything when some of the empire's states are located like... right next door to the business/political/cultural centers of china, japan, south korea, etc. they probably have maybe some cars... but they're only available to the higher ups... not the general public... not that the general public really needs it anyway. they're fine with their carriages and horses....
✦ people of the empire can go out into the rest of the world to travel. they just need to get their requests approved.[/spoiler][spoiler= - zuka][/spoiler][spoiler= - bri][/spoiler][spoiler=otis' potato farm - sultan]this kid ran away b/c he was that disillusioned w life and society. he started up a potato farm and has some goats to keep him company. got a vision; realized he needed 2 do shit again[/spoiler][/spoiler]
