Learning about this new world while growing up and making new friends

Times passed by and you began to grow up along with your sisters. And as you and your sisters are growing up, you and your elder sisters began to learn more about this world such as its history, politics, cultures and many more. And you did so as the Count of Guidosburg, the position to the heir to the states under the rule of the Duke of Volkery, while your sisters are known as the Countess of Auffenburg and Countess of Kronenburg.

You also learned that this part of the world where you were born into used to be ruled by the Tiberian Empire more than a thousand years ago and that the nomadic empire called Batun Empire invaded and ruled most of the known world from most of the east to the most of the west a century ago.

And right now, the western continent that you and your family are living in is facing another westward expansion by the people of similar origins of the Batuns known as the Ridvanid Empire, also known by most others as the Attilans.

Speaking of continents, the western continent looked greatly resembled Iceland but appeared to be flipped upside down with what appeared to be the upside down Sicily that is functioning as Western Asia in this world is connected to the upside down West Fjords. Down below, the upside down Sardinia took place of Africa and it appeared just as gigantic as much as the Africa of your previous world is with the now upside down southwest of Sardinia connected to the Middle East of this world. And for what located further east, that is yet to be known according to the map of the known world produced by the scholars of the western continent. And the names of the western continent is known as Zephyria, the eastern continent is known as Eurusia, and the southern continent in known as Notusia.

This world also has more than just humans. There are other races such as elves, trolls, zmei, jinn and selkies. The elves and the selkies resided on the archipelago that looked greatly resembled that of the British Isles-sized Malta Archipelago in your world nearby with the elves formed their own kingdom called the Kingdom of Eckerland on the first and the largest island that located not far from the continent while the selkies formed their own kingdom called the Kingdom of Aquilina on the third and the farthest island of the archipelago with the second island that located between the two functioned as a condominium between both kingdoms.

For others such as trolls, they live in tribes on the top of the snowy mountains in the northwest of Zephyria under the rule of the zmei, known to the rest of Zephyria as dragons, who formed a nation of their own along the Zephyrian northeastern coasts to the aforementioned northwestern mountains where the trolls resided known as the Sebastate of Almazia, which is called as such because the title of their ruler is known as the Sebastos, in the aftermath of the invasions and occupation for two centuries by the Batuns, who gained access to Zephyria via the northern route by coming through the upside down Southern Peninsula that appeared to be connected to the eastern lands that have yet to be explored. As for the jinn, they live as nomadic tribes all the way from the western portion of Eurusia to along the northern coasts of Notusia.

As for politics and cultures, you and your sisters are among the first to experience all things related to the equivalent of the Renaissance of your previous world, ranging from arts to music, and humanism to science. And this is due to your father's court is one of wealthiest and the most lavish courts within the western continent.

How did your father and maybe even your grandfather, the previous Duke of Volkery, even achieved many territories and accumulate so much wealth? The answer is simple. Your father has good relations with Princess Joan, the first daughter of the previous King of Isarnia and the widowed Queen of Isarnia who is also the Duchess of Chantal by inheritance. And the First Princess herself is also the Regent who ruled the Kingdom of Isarnia on behalf of the current King who is her younger half-brother that came to be as a result of the previous Isarnian King slept with one of his younger mistresses out of the **** desire to have a son to succeed him. And your father managed to secure the good relations with the First Princess of Isarnia and her husband, the Duke of Harvey, by marrying one the Princess' younger half-sisters who are also the results of the previous King of Isarnia's quest to obtain a son to succeed him with his mistresses, and that half-sister of the First Princess is the barely 18-year-old busty blonde woman who is now your mother in this world.

And back when your paternal grandfather was the Duke of Volkery, he also secured good relations, privileges and trading rights with the Society of Merchant Adventurers by participating in the holy war against the expanding Ridvanid Empire. Despite the fact that the coalition have been defeated, the action of your grandfather saved the life of the Society's leader, who also happened to be the Grandmaster of the Order of Brothers and Sisters of Icy Saint of the North, also known as the Ice Knights, whose Order also has a state of its own to rule. So ultimately, the states under the rule of your father have good and prosperous relations with both the State of Order of the Ice Knights and the cities that are members of the Society of Merchant Adventurers.

The states that are under your father's rule are the Duchy of Volkery, the Duchy of Loupville, Duchy of Natterburg, County of Guidosburg, County of Auffenburg, County of Kronenburg, County of Surmur, County of Veenland, Margrivate of Gerwerpen. However, there are no capitals. Due to controlling multiple states all at once, your family practiced a migratory form of government called itinerant court.

Of course, the Kingdom of Isarnia and the states under the rule of the Duchy of Volkery are not the only human states that existed. There are the Holy Tiberian Empire that located right next to the Duchy of Volkery, the State of the Ice Knights and the Society of Merchant Adventurers that located within the Holy Tiberian Empire as de facto independent territories that are being collectively ruled by the current Grandmaster of the Order of Brothers and Sisters of Icy Saint of the North.

In the southwest of Zephyria, there are two peninsulas called the Galinha peninsula and the Lepusian peninsula. On the smaller peninsula known as the Galinha peninsula, the entire peninsula is under the rule of the Kingdom of Copas while the bigger peninsula known as Lepusian peninsula is being ruled mosyly by the Kingdom of Spada with a small portion in the south of the peninsula is under the rule of the Kamilid Emirate. As for where the upside down West Fjords is, it is located in the southeast and it is being ruled by the Ridvanid Empire and its current name in this world is Bataklik. Sandwiched in the middle between the Holy Tiberian Empire and the Ridvanid Empire is the United Voivodates that function as the buffer state between both sides, whose ruler is known by the title of the Rector that came to such position through an election.

And finally, the place that you remembered as the Island Fjord at Iceland in your world is known here in this world as the Appian Cape. Multiple of independent republican city-states such as the Republic of Denari, which is this world's birthplace of the something akin to the Renaissance of this world, or the independent duchies that existed along with the territories under the direct rule of the Patriarch of the Patriarchate of Tiber. And according to the news that is being spread around Zephyria, the Sertorian Cape is one of the next possible targets of the Ridvanid Empire.

Outside of Zephyria is the eastern portion of the Ridvanid Empire and it shared its southwestern borders with the Mamluk Sultanate. And located next to the Mamluk Sultanate as its western neighbor is the Latifid Sultanate, which is an ally of the Kingdom of Spada. Next to the Latifid Sultanate is the Nazifid Sultanate and finally, the Salmanid Sultanate at the furthest west of the continent.

In the east, the Nogoon tribes successfully revolted against Batunistan in the aftermath of the latter's war of succession and **** its current Khan to accept their status as an independent state many years ago. But beyond Batunistan, nothing is concretely known about what lied beyond its eastern borders but stories according to the books published by the merchants who actually went to the lands of the mighty and prosperous nation in the east where silks, jades and incenses claimed to be originated from that is remembered around the known world as the Middle Kingdom.

By the time you fully learned about the politics, cultures, societies and the developments that have been happening in this world, your new life's 18th birthday has finally arrived. As for your elder sisters, both of them are now 22 and 20 respectively and they took a lot after their mother, especially when it comes to their beauties and their big bountiful breasts. And so, you began to seriously seek for beautiful ladies with "lovely bodily proportions" to fulfill your desire of wanting a harem and having multiple children with them despite being engaged with Sasha, one of the daughters of the current Rector of the United Voivodates, to forge an alliance to deter the Ridvanid Empire from expanding further into Zephyria.
