image.jpg Polis- Ágrypno. Location on map ^^^

Bio- Ágrypno was once a low altitude city near a forest. The city was known for it's large supply of wood. A city close by was at a shortage of wood and needed more. The city sent an army over to 'collect' wood. 'Collect' in this term means burning all the houses down and stealing all the wood. The leftover people took a long trek up the mount where they settled down again and made a new city, this one called Ágrypno, meaning Watchful.

Brief description of the people- The people are going well. They get their slaves to be taught to mine within the mountain and sell the minerals and gems to other countries. With that money they buy crops and other food. The people are also called the watchers. They overlook the land.

Insignia-

National colour(s)- Purple, Yellow

Unique laws/policies- At the age of 12, kids get taught how to use a bow. When they get to 16, the kids can learn how to use a sword. However, Lots of other kids decide they want a more peaceful life and choose agriculture. While the kids in the army path learn how to use a short sword and a bow. They get tested on each. Which one scores higher, is the one they specialise at. That weapon is the only weapon they are allowed to use.

Specialties-
Mining minerals
- Ágrypno practically lives on a mineral. Once a pickaxe breaks into rock, at least one mineral or gem are found.
Long range battle
- When engaged in battle, they prefer to use their bow towers and bow units to shoot down enemies.
High altitude city
- Since the city is so high up, it makes the city hard to conquer.

Disadvantages-
Aren't too good at head to head combat
Can't reach the bottom of the mountain easily.
- It takes the people of Ágrypno a long time to reach bottom of the mountain.
Don't like combat
- Ágrypno is a relatively peaceful city. When presented with battle, they would manage to squirm out of it. With a slight shortage of supplies afterward.

Standard hoptile description- The Ágrypno army have a two types of army units. Back line now users, they try to get to a high altitude point and pick off the advancing army. Sword uses, who go up against the leftover hoptiles. They have a purple chest plate and a purple helmet. They leave their legs and arms open because of a, sword uses have an extra knife on their left leg and another on their right arm, and b, bow uses carries their quiver on their left arm and a knife on their right leg. Bow uses are not taught how to use a knife.




National specialty- Mining. Wild guess.

Parton God- Zeus. Because why not.

Other- They play a card game called 'Ancient Grease'.

It's not my place to critique you, for that's Koda's job, but explosives are a bit far fetched.
