The Kingdom of Black Salt, which has the topmost authority over all the other kingdoms in the land of Black Salt, is considered a very decorative place. Located at the northern region, this portion of the land is the most resourceful also. Iron, wheat, fresh well water, vegetables, and poultry, which is all produced here. The Black Salt Sea covers the top portion of this kingdom which makes it a major route of transportation, land and sea.
All around here, you'll see black and gold, the colors that represents this extravagant place. You will also see the Fleur De Lis, the kingdom's emblem, placarded on almost everything. The Fleur De Lis is a conventionalized Iris flower in an artistic design and heraldry. The locals here believe in their hearts that the Fleur De Lis symbol entails that you are royal even if you're not royalty. They live and strive off of that message, it's their way of life. The citizens live in upscale chalets, they are all lined up in a uniformed fashion which displays how beautiful and clean the kingdom looks.
Monogamy is the preferred form of marriage here. Wives are honored for their faithfulness and dedication to their husbands, and divorces are very rare. Crime is definitely not permitted in this kingdom, if you are convicted of any type of wickedness, it is considered very serious. Either you're sentenced to death or released and exiled.
Once a year, the Festival of the Saints is celebrated here. This fest, which is Catholic based, is an all week event. Each day of that week a Saint of King Victor's choice is honored. The last day of the festival, all of the Saints who were celebrated days prior are praised on this day all together. The celebration consists of parades, masquerade balls, feasting, musical events, and Catholic Mass.
King Victor's castle sits deep in the rear of the kingdom. The king's bastion is all black in color and it's close to six stories high, heavily guarded by Black Knights. Entering the castle by your own leisure is entirely off limits as you must be invited to gain access inside. Next to the king's fortress is a mini dome that's all gold in color, mainly used for the queen's banquets. On the other side of King Victor's castle sits a huge training ground, used by the higher ranked Black Knights, as well as an area where they hold meetings to setup strategies and various forms of non physical training. On the outside of the building is a concrete pillar that displays the Black Knight's Creed. Each and every Black Knight has to know and honor this tenet. Whenever the creed is stated, which is usually recited after ceremonies, the Black Knights in unison hold out their right arm at a forty-five degree angle with a closed fist. It shows and resembles the loyalty to the kingdom.
Anarchy, the kingdom of evil, some call it the land of no visitors. Located on the eastern region of Black Salt, this is the perfect place to get into any kind of mischief and never leave, ever. Anarchy, which is also called the Sin Kingdom, is also known for the type of businesses here. Brothels, gambling locations, numerous places for purchasing of spirits, you name it, there's just pure evil around the entire kingdom. The income that's flowing throughout the kingdom comes from these horrible establishments, but this place isn't hurting financially trust me.
The locals, or Anarchians I should say, live in wooden bungalows. Their homes are placed in a straight line, right in front of the king's castle. As I see it, their homes seems like the last line of defense before you can confront their mighty king. Anarchian women are created equal here, they are also allowed to be Raiders. Speaking of the Raiders, at its core, its an elite infantry force of twenty thousand individuals, I know what you're thinking, pretty small right? When one Raider is killed, he or she is immediately replaced because they are never allowed to fall below that twenty thousand. The Raiders are armed with armor shields, spears, swords, bows and arrows. The men wear black leather briefs and black leather boots, the women wear a black leather halter top and black leather pants. Whenever battle occurs, both men and women Raiders are donned with black leather capes. To keep the cape attached, there's a metal circular centerpiece that holds the cape on the Raider's body. The centerpiece has a red skull on it, Anarcy's logo.
The Raider constitution contains an aristocratic element in the form of a body called the "Annunciation," a council of older men and women, all Anarchians. The Annunciation consists of twenty four citizens over the age of sixty who are elected for life as well as King Lucas and Queen Mecole.
All Raiders live in military like barracks, next to the king's castle, where they are subjected to harsh discipline to make them tough. They are also given an education that stresses military training and obedience to authority. At the age of thirty you are allowed to vote and live at your own home. Raider women has greater freedom, they are pretty much their own army, complimented by Queen Mecole Akillian of course. They are encouraged to exercise vigorously like the men. I've seen at certain solemn feasts, the women marching in procession singing songs about male Raiders who showed any special gallantry or cowardice on the battlefield. Their ability to shame the men give them power in their minds to do as much as the men can do. The Kingdom of Anarchy is ruled by King Lucas Akillian, the colors that represent Anarchy are red and black.
Constantinople is a historical kingdom that's located directly in the center of Black Salt. The name comes from each generation of kings within the Constantinople bloodline. You must have the namesake to be awarded the crown here. This well respected monarchy is, due to the battles won and the legendary rulers that oversaw them. To ensure the protection of Constantinople from onslaughts of rival kingdoms, a great wall stands fifteen feet tall and covers the entire area, the wall is built of stone. Defending this entire domain are the Crusaders of Constantinople.
An army of approximately twelve thousand individuals that are trained from birth to fight at the king's every call. The Crusaders attire is a suit of armor. The suit consists of a shoulder piece on each shoulder, which is painted orange, the pallette, which has a brown leather covering. The breastplate, which is painted orange, and it has Constantinople's emblem on it as well, the emblem entails two crossed swords that are brown in color. The brassard with the elbow piece which are both covered with brown leather. The skirt of tasses, as well as the tuille, the cuisse, and the Jambeau, are all brown in color. The knee piece and the sollerets are painted orange. When in battle the helmet, the gorget, and gauntlets are donned. One might say that the Crusaders are well protected in this suit of armor. King Richard Constantinople is the current ruler of this kingdom.
The architecture in this kingdom is amazing, three feet towards dawn lies the elder stone of Constantinople's very own entertainment theater, The Joy. The entire theater is concrete, surrounded by statues of each king that ruled Constantinople in the past. It holds about eighteen thousand onlookers for theatrical presentations. Events like tragedy plays are general, they portray educational functions, while comedy plays examines contemporary issues and are used to attack or satirize prominent individuals. This venue was designed to do more than just simply entertain. Another iconic piece of history, The Baths of Valence, as they're called. The public baths are quite popular amongst the locals. Though used for cleanliness, they've also become a meaningful place for socializing.
Gladiatorial shows are the integral part of society here, and they attract numerous visitors as well. Once a year these games are performed on the current king's birth day. It all takes place at the Soniat Amphitheater, which seats fifty thousand spectators. The gladiatorial games are held from dawn until dusk. Contests to the death between trained fighters form the central focus of these games. Most gladiators are condemned criminals, which, they could win their freedom throughout the games. Some free men lured by the hope of popularity and patronage by wealthy onlookers usually participate voluntarily. The more the bizarre an event, such as, fighting amongst each other to the death or facing wild animals, the more popular it is to the spectators, a delight to see of course.
King Richard's castle stands about eight storeys high and it's surrounded by a moat. The only way to enter the castle is on a very wide draw bridge. Four towers are on each corner of the castle, mainly for security purposes, Crusaders are posted there, anticipating a threat of attack from anyone. The bottom level of the king's castle, considerably the prison, has no communication with the upper floors but is approached by a flight of stairs. The prison is paved partly by stone slabs and partly by bricks. It is provided with a latrine and is ventilated by a small window. In the rear of the castle is a huge courtyard as well as the Constantinople Hall which is mainly used for the king's feasts.
The locals of Constantinople all reside in wooden cabins, they constructed the entire kingdom including King Richard's castle. A Catholic religious decorum is the norm around here as well as suicidal loyalty to the king. They are taught at an early age to, "Die for your king and you will be blessed in heaven." The women of Constantinople are considered beneath the men, they are only used for reproduction and indoctrination. Three women attempted to rebel against this order of process and ended up being placed into a gladiatorial show versus six lions.
Waterwell is located on the southern region of Black Salt. Known as "The Lion Kingdom," Waterwell made a name for itself when this one place fought numerous enemies back to back, courage I tell you. Ruled by King Ralph Mazant, a man of heart, who wants his family and citizens to understand that he is the sole monarch of this remarkable kingdom and that he makes all the decisions concerning Waterwell. The locals here, known as Waterwellians are very loyal to their king, and they're extremely hard workers. They create and provide coal, wood, and cotton for themselves and all of the other kingdoms in Black Salt. A high class establishment this place, the Waterwellians live in medium sized wooden cabins. The men, either they're labor workers or they are enlisted as a Warrior. The workers keeps this place flowing with excellent business ventures. Whether it is producing items for sale or protecting this kingdom, the men makes this place flow. The women of Waterwell do not work, there's no need to, they only take care of the home front. Waterwell is also known for their celebration of the Fallen Warriors, an honorary salute to all of Waterwell's soldiers who lost their lives in battle. Each perennial on the first day of summer is when this marvelous celebration occurs. It includes musical arrangements, roses and gifts for the widows as well as a humongous feast for the entire kingdom, a day of recognition. The Warriors of Waterwell are the king's standalone army. At approximately fifteen thousand standing, the Warriors of Waterwell aren't any pushovers. Armed with deadly sharp weaponry, double edged concave swords is the main fighting utensil of choice. The Warriors uniform are significantly different from the rest, they wear no armor, only red and blue leather, due to the armor slowing down their physicality in fighting. This place is heavily protected, throughout the entire kingdom you will see Warriors everywhere, ready for any kind of attack.
King Ralph's castle is located in the center of the kingdom, the king cherishes residing with his fellow Waterwellians. His castle sits very high, nine storeys to be exact. In front of the king's home are paraded with red and blue flags. The emblem that represents this kingdom is a lion, stressing the Warriors courage.

Ruler of the mighty Kingdom of Anarchy, is a heavy set man with brown colored skin. He has balding black hair and has no facial hair, except for his bushy eyebrows that's above his light brown eyes. He has a wide nose, and pearly white teeth. A very neat king who has smooth skin from the use of black soap and Shea butter. He has well manicured nails and he's an avid lover of jewelry, preferably gold. His crown that covers his perfectly round head is completely gold with a huge red ruby in the shape of a skull with black onyx eyes.

On both of his wrists are thick solid gold bracelets that stretch from his wrists to the center of his forearms.

He carries a short wide sword that's pretty heavy to hold, King Lucas calls his sword, "The Devil!!" The Devil is used in battle and it's also used in severe punishment on a deceitful Anarchian if need be. His fighting style is a brute style, he's not a proficient fighter, but he uses his weight to push his opponent around. King Lucas is a confident ruler, he has a no nonsense attitude and a very devious mindset. He walks with his chest and big belly out with pride. His voice sounds like he's heavily congested. The love for his wife is unfathomable, the king is faithful to his wife and he would do anything for her. He allows her opinion on how to control the kingdom, and whatever she says, he truly respects and honors her decisions. The king's son, Prince William, as well as his twin daughters, Princess Myisha and Princess Michelle Akillian are his heart and he spoils them to death. King Lucas hates any other kingdom besides his own, he's loyal to Anarchy as he feels Anarchy is loyal to him. This king is an arrogant somebody, he would set up an attack on another kingdom for no reason whatsoever just to show everyone that he can own you. He would kidnap innocent citizens of another kingdom, enslave them, and use them for hard labor in Anarchy. He would also kill innocent people from another kingdom for no particular reason. He's a king that's greedy for money or gold and he'll do just about anything to get it. He's deeply into looking good, smelling good, and having his way. King Lucas is the backbone as well as the mastermind of Anarchy, this kingdom definitely deserves him as a king.

He wears a diamond bracelet around his left wrist that is extremely sentimental to him. These precious transparent stones which are free from flaw was given to Sir Charles as a heirloom, attached to this magnificent piece of jewelry is a medallion of a crucifix. Originally from Eagle's Nest, which is near the Waterwell Kingdom, Sir Charles was captured and kept in captivity here in Anarchy since he was a child. As a prisoner of circumstance, the young Sir Charles grew as a scholar of the Anarchy Raiders, he trained with them daily and he wanted to be apart of this particular army. He couldn't be one because he wasn't born an Anarchian, he totally despised that law. Since he was forbidden from the Raiders, Sir Charles made an oath to himself to become a superior being over Anarchy soon enough, or die trying to destroy this terrible kingdom.
