Republic of Toscana

History

Although it was said that it once conquered some uncivilized tribes living in the north, in the area bordering Gallica and Alpina, and incorporated them into the Republic. The Toscanan Army now uses these tribal warriors as lightly armored scouts.   Toscana has a rich history of the Rovo empire based of the city of Rovo. Founded in 902 bce. The golden age was under Coltonus the Great 665-622 bce. He conquered Carthago (Arridia), Graca, Turkoye, Perza, Dacia, Araluen,Celtica, Hibernia, Gallica, and Alpina. The empire fell in 189 ce when the Teutons sacked and destroyed Rovo and overan the Empire.

Military

The Toscanan Army is divided into Centuries, formations of a hundred men with large shields, armor, short stabbing swords (gladii) and javelins. The Century's discipline is excellent, with flawless execution of their techniques. General Sapristi, a high-ranked commander in the Army, also states that none has found a way to defeat it in a battle on the open field, where the Toscans could use their formations, which involved making shield walls and throwing javelins when enemies came close. However, if the soldiers would have to fight on an area where they can't use their formations, they would be more likely to lose.
The Toscanan fighting techniques can be used without much training, as long as the soldiers follow up orders given by the commanders.   On the seas, Toscana also has respectable fleets protecting its trade from pirates.

Trade & Transport

Toscana has lively trade with Gallica, Iberion and the Arridi. Expensive and rare products from the Far East, from countries such as Indus and Nihon-Ja, are usually transported to the West by Toscan merchants. The Arridi trade kafay with Toscan merchants, causing many Toscans to become addicted to it.
