The provinces all have great descriptions of their flags and shires, I like the design of Seaxwealdan's the most personally. Smile

Miclian Arþura | Greater Arthuria - Page 3 Sicambria300

Province of
Sicambria

Heáfodstól (Capital): Melodún
Population: 2,123,000
Area (km²): 15,327

The Sicambri were originally an Arthish tribe from western Arthuria. Swelled with refugees from other displaced Arthish tribes, the Sicambrian Confederation was a constant thorn in the side of the eastern cimbric kingdoms until their resistance gradually melted away during the 15th century. The provincial flag is that of St. Meurig, who did much to introduce christianity to the western coast of Arthuria.

Scíra (Shires):

	Cæriu Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Coríel Population: 262,000 Area (km²): 4,069 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Coríel 158 Afnetyran 36
	Icen Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Melodún Population: 1,108,000 Area (km²): 7,468 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Melodún 810 (Melodún 617, Traspain 193)

Miclian Arþura | Greater Arthuria - Page 3 Siluria300

Province of
Siluria

Heáfodstól (Capital): Maiticca
Population: 1,209,000
Area (km²): 18,951

The Siluri were the other main Arthish tribe in the west, although not nearly as warlike as the Sicambri. Nevertheless, they were an important part of the Sicambrian Confederation until, with defeat imminent, the Siluri pulled out and negotiated a separate peace. The flag features the traditional gold and black of the Siluri, with Cathamhrán, the legendary sword of King Blegywrydan Falh-Ddu, in pride of place.

Scíra (Shires):

	Ailt Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Aonachain Population: 227,000 Area (km²): 7,977 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Aonachain 83
	Mœn Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Maiticca Population: 982,000 Area (km²): 10,974 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Maiticca 633

Miclian Arþura | Greater Arthuria - Page 3 Talierin300

Province of
Talierin

Heáfodstól (Capital): Farindun
Population: 1,246,000
Area (km²): 7,337

Talierin (Dál Íeran) grew out of the ancient Curthish petty-kingdoms of Erfid and Erin, but, isolated from the rest of the Curthish tribes on the southern side of the Talmogils, it was swiftly brought under the Norðengrian crown and has remained there since. The flag is a combination of celtic and nordic crosses, representing the curthish and varish heritage of most of the population, in the colours of its legendary king Álpín eru mac Íeran.

Scíra (Shires):

	Avonor Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Avonor Population: 353,000 Area (km²): 4,444 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Avonor 192
	Deraílpin Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Farindun Population: 893,000 Area (km²): 2,893 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Farindun 638

Miclian Arþura | Greater Arthuria - Page 3 Talorgan300

Province of
Talorgan

Heáfodstól (Capital): Drest
Population: 1,159,000
Area (km²): 18,528

The southernmost of the Curthish lands, Dál Orcan exploited its isolated position to keep out of many of the conflicts that crippled other Arthurian kingdoms, although they could not hold out an Æscing army looking for a back way into the Sicambrian lands to the south. The flag features the ancient Curthish symbols of the Crescent and V-rod, depicted on the Stone of Muircholaith, over the white Cross of Orcan.

Scíra (Shires):

	Gart Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Drest Population: 867,000 Area (km²): 12,576 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Drest 521 Muircholaith 84
	Uais Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Eunmóran Population: 292,000 Area (km²): 5,952 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Eunmóran 169 Vistuile 53

Miclian Arþura | Greater Arthuria - Page 3 Westriceu300

Province of
Westríceu

Heáfodstól (Capital): Anlafærn
Population: 2,187,000
Area (km²): 10,431

In the 9th century the Norðengrians came under attack from the Varings, a people from beyond the sea. The Varish army eventually established itself on the Norðengrian coast, forming the twin kingdoms of Óláfrheim and Mjórvöllr. The two kingdoms merged in 985 to become the Væstrríjka, or West Kingdoms, the precursor to today's province. The flag of Westríceu harks back to its Varish roots, with a nordic cross and raven, as used on the Varish war banners.

Scíra (Shires):

	Morvollar Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Elverð Population: 1,137,000 Area (km²): 5,986 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Elverð 394 Vetraleiren 286
	Nýrmark Gemotseld (Shire Seat): Anlafærn Population: 1,050,000 Area (km²): 4,445 Main Towns & Cities (Pop'n '000): Anlafærn 739 (Anlafærn 466, Marrstead 273) Breconner 164 Norwardine 92 Holenstead 55

Woah the Westríceu ones are cool.

Good god how do you keep track of all of these? Razz

by Bruce Fri Oct 22, 2010 2:20 pm

The crest of Nýrmark is almost the same as that of Morvollar...hmm...

14 provinces... 38 scíra... much easier than 50 states and a gazillion counties!

Duwamish has 5 provinces and 20 districts. Plain and simple.

Amazing work here Simon, really blows me away!

And if you go to King's Park in central Witanceaster, you'll find the Kingsway is lined by 38 obelisks - one for each scír:

Very nice uniforms and teams...I especially love the tallying of each appearance and win in your league cup final. Gabroa has the most wins per appearance, with 10/10, but White Star has most wins overall, with 19, 17 of which are wins.

by **Joe 90** Sat Nov 27, 2010 4:56 pm

... except the League Trophy and League Cup are two separate competitions - kind of hard to reconcile you method when Stanhyll Albion have 1 League Trophy and 4 League Cups Wink

Gabroa has won the League 10 times, and the Cup 10 times, White Star has won the League 19 times, and the Cup 17 times. KPR have 21 League titles, but only 8 League cups.

by Bruce Sat Nov 27, 2010 6:09 pm

Ohhhhh....two tourneys...just like the U.S. (league and U.S. Open Cup).

or more so like the FA with the Premiere League Championship and the FA Cup
or Scotland with
the SPL Championship and the Scottish Cup
or Rorysville with
the RPL Championship and the Derby Cup

Yep, I explicitly copied the Rorysvillian system Very Happy

Well DCCCLXXXI (the date on your logo of establishment, I'm assuming) is a bit fishy... Soccer wasn't really played until about the 16th century Razz

Besides that though, it's flawless. Great work!

by Bruce Sun Nov 28, 2010 6:22 am

Actually, soccer was invented in the mid-1800's, K50.

No. The formal game was invented in the mid-1800's, the history of it traces back to the mid 1500's
