—and the Landslag’s next match comes tomorrow against Hertfordia, ranked 11. Until then, keep it cool!
Midday sunlight bathed the small apartment in Eidanger as Ylva switched the radio off. Thankfully their windows faced south to catch what little sun came this time of year. The light glinted off rooftops, the last of the leaves were falling from the trees, flurries blew through the air. It was peaceful.
Anyway, back to work it was.
Ylva turned back to their desk and sat down, staring at the teleplay in front of them...
“Hmm, really some could use work on this scene...” thought Ylva, and pressed on.

Fujai
Folkskommunarna Fujai (fu:'jaɪ, foo-yEYE) is a small coastal nation of just over 7 million residents, located in the north of the Polari continent. While winter sports and rugby are the most popular in the country, Fujai has a long footballing tradition, beginning near the end of the 14th century, when the game was brought north by the Cambrians.
The Landslag
The Landslag is made up of the finest players in Fujai, though few would be considered of truly international quality. It is sponsored by Fujais Fotbollforbund (FjFF), a member of Fujais Idrottsforbund (FIF - Sports Federation of Fujai). Most Landslag players come from Fujai's top league, Fyrstserien, though a few come from the second division, Annarserien, and one comes from a university team. While Fujansk clubs are more equal in skill than the average league, the four most dominant teams, the Feme Store, are Solbakken IL and Bruland IF from the capital of Keiserholde, Allmein IL from Rønnøn, GIF Tåkstad from Tåkstad, and Trondsnes FF from Strafsund.
Recently, the Landslag has, against the odds, managed to stay near the upper tier of international footballing in recent years, including fourth place at the Saint-Josalyn Esferiad, fifth place at the 1st WCF, and fifth at the Quoriv-Kharventhin Esferiad. Will they be able to break their streak and finally make a podium appearance? Only time will tell.
Fujais Idrottsforbund
Fujais Idrottsforbund (FIF) is the federation of labor unions representing all sports players and workers in sports-associated industries. It is separate from the Fujansk government, but receives accreditation and financial and infrastructural support from it. Its structure includes clubs at the local level (e.g. a local sports club), which are constituents of fylke organizations, which are a part of the larger federation representing specific sports (e.g. Fujais Fotbollforbund for football), which are then members of FIF.
Fujais Fotbollforbund
Fujais Fotbollforbund (FjFF) is the labor union that governs football in Fujai and represents all players, related workers, and clubs in the country. It governs Fujai's league system, consisting of Fyrstserien, Annarserien, Tredjeserien, and the landsdel leagues. Fylke leagues and lower are organized by the the fylke organizations.
Important Notes (!)
Editor's note on gender: Fujansk culture does not have individual gender categories. The five common genders were historically recognized, though categories and classifications of gender expression have broken down in the last few centuries, resulting in today's non-categorical perception of gender. Since the Fujansk language does not have gendered pronouns, most Fujar choose choose to use gender-neutral pronouns when interacting in the common tongue, such as they/them. All players on the Landslag use they/them pronouns in the common language.
Translator's note: Landslaget translates to "The National Team," while Landslag translates to "National Team." In the common tongue, one would say "the Landslag did well" or "Landslaget did well," not "the Landslaget did well" (the translated equivalent of "the The Landslag did well"). This is because the Fujansk language uses suffixes to create definite nouns instead of articles. See Den Fujanske Ordboken (The Fujansk Dictionary) for more information.

The following balance changes were made:
Pahalena:
- Increased requested population density. Average was requested, above average was given to match total population requested
Teviar:
- No adjustments needed.
Pedandria
- Increased requested population. You specified ~4 million, but requested "Average" population and density. 4 million people would make your nation well below average in both of those, so it was doubled. 8 million is still a bit below average.
Hashmiyyia
- Requested land area decreased.
- Decreased requested GDP/Capita—above average was requested, slightly below average was given. We chose this metric to reduce above others due to your specifying the nation is "on its path to improvement" with a history of instability and conflict.
- Nation name adjusted after talking about it.
- Location adjusted after talking about it.
Greiya
- No adjustments needed.

Fujai rejects allegations of terrorism
from: UtanriksministerjonetStatement
Keiserholde - Utanriksministerjonet // Ministry of Foreign Affairs
02 auknattar 107 // 1423 July 15Utanriksministerjonet today issued the following statement:
We have heard and reject the statements today made by the Zoranian Minister for Defense Waholi. Allegations of the Government of Fujai’s involvement in any act of violence in Zoran are absurd and motivated. The hearts of the Fujansk people go out to Queen Adsila and hope for their speedy recovery from this heinous attack.
The Government of Fujai does not engage in terrorist attacks on foreign soil.
We appreciate the retraction of these statements and apology from the Provisional Government. However, the mere voicing of such unsubstantiated allegations to the contrary seek to shift the focus from political extremists threatening the stability of Zoran’s recovering civil society. The inaction of the Provisional Government on this matter has been a long-standing and continuing concern.
We support the Zoranian authorities in their investigation to find the perpetrators of the attack on Queen Adsila and urge the Provisional Government to take prompt and effective legal action against similar extremist elements operating from their soil.

@Karlica, the Cartography Board decided not to approve your expansion request. Your original area request was reduced for being too large and brought to a size that would have minimal effect on your other requested statistics and indicators. Wanting one's nation to be larger for the sake of being larger is not a compelling enough reason for expansion.

Hi I am here to resend my mapplicitaion to my broders due to fact i supposed to submit this a while ago but it was nt working properly. this is the mapplictaion.
For balance reasons, to increase your nation's land area, one or more of your nation's other metrics (population, GDP/capita, gov't spending, etc) would have to be significantly lowered to compensate.
More importantly, why do you wish for your nation to have a larger land area? What purpose does it serve? There have to be very good reasons for the Cartography Board to be able to consider this.

if there was another option id definetley choose "never be stressed" since that's something i definetley dont handle very well.
Full agree on this one—never being stressed sounds incredibly freeing
Being forced into a choice, I'd really go with never being angry, because while both anger and envy can be extremely good and useful emotions, I have a hot headed streak inherited from my father that comes out rarely and I don't like it. But envy can be extremely useful for personal growth so I wouldn't want to get rid of that. The biggest risk in removing all anger is removing righteous anger that motivates you to make positive change in the world—however there are probably a lot healthier emotions you can channel to find that motivation
