QUEENDOM OF KYRIATINE
Kyriatinian: Κεριατίνη Ϙυενταυɯ αηο Ζειρίηι κα Λκαⱡίηι
{ translation: queen of honor, serenity and tranquility }



The national flag of Kyriatine. The blue stripes represent the ocean and lakes of Kyriatine while the white represents
the holy spirit of its people. The bird shown on this flag is the national bird, the giant golden plover.

NAMESAKE AND KYRIATINE EXPLAINED

The official name of the country is the Queendom of Kyriatine. In native Kyriatinian the name means queen of main honor.
Other widely accepted names for the country include the Serene Maiden Republic of Kyriatine (formal), the Holy Dytican Republic
of Kyriatine (no longer in use), Kyrotine (Mosquetanian), Kyria (simplified) and Kýria-Timí (old republic).

The nation of Kyriatine draws its inspiration from various places in the real world, including the most apparent Greece as well as my
native Iceland, other Nordic countries as well as France and the Roman Empire. The country also draws heavy inspiration from the
people in my surroundings, namely my friends and family who inspire the various regions, cities and wonders of Kyriatine.

I decided to not only change the name of my country but also to move it because I have always hated the shape of Mosquetania.
The main reason for this change is because when I created Mosquetania there was really no thought behind any of it: the name,
flag, country shape, all of it was just sort of random. But I wanted my country to reflect more about me and have more meaning
to me so I decided for a complete rebranding. Mosquetania will continue to exist as a small Kyriatinian territory in Vinorel but I
redraw the borders and leave the rest of the previously occupied territory to be claimed by other players. Kyriatine instead exists
on a series of islands off the coast of Jupiterdonia in western Orchidia.
