By order of His Royal Majesty

The First Hyspian National Army, shortened to the "HNA" or simply the Hyspian National Army, is the military force of the Kingdom of Hyspia. It is responsible for the defense of all territories belonging to Hyspia and is the under the direct command of the King himself. For many years, the Army has served under the Kings of Hyspia to ward off threats both internal and external and has succeeded in bringing peace and stability to the Hyspian realm. 

RANK STRUCTURE OF HYSPIA

Carlos Mendez leading the Hyspian Army during the Hyspian-Bandit war.

By the decree of King Cesar I, the Hyspian National Army was formed and organized by Lord Carlos Mendez to combat banditry, and then reformed under King Cesar II and Vicente Murietta after Hyspia became a separate entity from Osanora. After the second reformation, the new Lord Marshal went on to establish a new command structure which is what the modern day Army follows.

KING OF HYSPIA

The King of Hyspia is the sole ruler of the Kingdom of Hyspia. He holds the highest authority within the Army and is responsible for choosing a new Coronelon should the Kingdom require a new one. This title is currently held by King Cesar II.

CORONELON

The Coronelon is the second highest authority in the military. Only answering to the King himself, the Coronelon is responsible for the organization and training of the soldiers under his command. He has the ability to restructure the Army's chain of command, issue new uniforms, and plenty more all with permission from the King.  This rank is currently held by Coronelon Vicente Murietta

BASTION

The Men-At-Arms of the Army, a rank most often held by Knights and Soldiers who have proven their valor. While not often having any power to command the soldiers below them, the new Coronelon is often chosen from those holding the Bastion rank. Men in this rank are often very experienced, having served in the Army almost all their lives. It is the Coronelon who is responsible for giving soldiers this rank.

(No Uniform yet)

REGULARE

The average footsoldier of the HNA, they make up the bulk of the King's forces and are the day-to-day soldiers you shall see patrolling or guarding Hyspian lands. This is the rank that all fresh recruits are given as well, and upon ranking up the title of the rank is kept. Without the brave fighting Regulares, the Kingdom would not be as stable as it is today.

ENLISTMENT

Without the brave enlistees of the Hyspian National Army, Hyspia would not be the stable land that it is today. For that, it is the wish of the Crown to encourage all able-bodied Hyspians interested in gaining glory and serving the King to enlist in the Hyspian National Army. To do so, you may approach a known member of the HNA and request to join. From there, you shall be brought to an officer of the HNA and be welcomed in with open arms. We hope to see you within our ranks soon enough!

VIVA HYSPIA!

Signed,

Vicente Murietta, Coronelon of Hyspia

Cesar Julian De Rivera, King of Hyspia and Count of Osanora.

It was a typical day in Osanora for the Hyspians, a day of long farming, prayers, and occasional sips of Saint Roberto Tequilla. Inside the home of the Prince of Hyspia, Cesar II and his regent, Carlos Mendez knelt before a Hyspian priest, there they were joint in prayer. while Holy Sir Santiago stood beside the priest. After the priest was done, he turned to leave, escorted by the Holy Sir, but stopped for a moment turning back to Carlos Mendez. 

"Is the prince baptized yet, my lord?” The priest asked before Lord Mendez

"I-” Carlos Mendez stopped for a moment, needing to think, he then looked back to the priest, “He is not, I am afraid to say”

"We must change and correct this, my lord,” The priest said

"Indeed, we must,” Carlos Mendez said in return

Cesar II, who at this point was 9 years old and not yet baptized, looked to the two men, raising one of his brows, the prince would ask, “Perhaps we could ask his holiness?”

Both of the men nodded their heads, not wanting to question the prince, not like they wanted to anyways. Carlos Mendez would reach for some paper and a quill, sliding it onto the prince’s neat and tidy desk. The prince would begin to write, but of course was aided by his regent, Carlos Mendez.

A LETTER TO HIS HOLINESS, JUDE II

(Viewable by His Holiness, and other  Canonist clergymen interested, and Hyspians!)

Dear Holiness, Jude II, Vicar of God

It has been long since a member of the royal family of Rivera has spoken to you, despite this I still wish to to plead and beg you for forgiveness for my family’s actions against the holy union of the Hyspian people. I wish for your mercy and love, to allow me to re-enter the communion of the Holy Mother Church, and for the light of God to embrace me and my family once more. I wish for you to baptize me, officially re-entering me into the communion of the Holy Mother Church. I wish to be saved, holiness.

From the Faithful

 Cesar II, Prince of Hyspia, Count of Osanora, and Protector of the Hyspian People

Día de Los Pobres

For many as privileged as myself I do not spend much time thinking about my next meal; my title and wealth ensure that doesn't happen. For many across Almaris food is a scarcity and for those with young children, this can mean death. I call upon all fellow leaders and people across the realm to join Osanora in celebrating Día de Los Pobres where we spend a day with no food to see exactly how so many people suffer. At the end of this one day, we invite all to a celebration where I shall host a feast for anyone, regardless of status, to come and eat. I ask for no mina in return, just for you to return your plates empty and your bellies full!
A special invitation to the clergymen of Canon to partake in the one day of no food, to show GOD we are not above his most unfortunate children.

Felipe De Medina, Count of Osanora

To the people of Cordoba 

May the blessings of GOD fall upon all who reside in the Diocese of Cordoba, upon such great lands we have seen great strides with the Canonist Service Center, providing a place of refuge to all who seek such. The diocese has the privilege  and the honor to host the pontiff in a few saints days, I wish all who read this come to this most holy of occasions. May GOD guide all who live in the Diocese of Cordoba.

Feel free to listen to this while you read or visit Osanora!

Adrian de la Garza Environment Artist

Culture

Cuisine

Utilizing a wide variety of spices, peppers, and vegetables, the Osanorian diet consists of bright and flashy foods many of them too spicy for the average eater to stomach every day. The most common dishes in Osanorian meals generally contain some type of meat if not multiple types and you will never find an empty belly in Osanora because of Osanorians willingness to feed EVERYONE regardless of economic status. Though portions are smaller than an average meal, it is made up with the AMOUNT of times a day meals are had, upwards of 4 if not 5 a day!

Baked goods are a common snack and dessert among the Osanorian populace. With relatively few ingredients the range of sweets, often called breads or pan, are made fresh every day and sold for cheap prices.

Appearance

Osanorians live their days below the hot sun of the desert, their skin tones are typically shades of brown with brown/black hair. Though uncommon, some Osanorians do have non-brown shades of color typically when they relocate themselves to Osanora from a different settlement.

Their clothing differs depending on gender. A few pictures added since I do not know how to describe it. 

(Feel free to wear other clothing! Osanoras colors are blue and white!)

Music

Music among Osanorians typically includes instruments. The most common form of music is a band, also called a mariachi, which will perform songs for weddings, restaurants, or even just out on the street! There are some singers who prefer to perform alone, though a bit uncommon!

Religion

Osanorians are devout in their faith, they believe in many of the traditional beliefs the Church of Canon follows. Any event hosted by the Church in Osanora is bound to draw in a reasonable crowd. 

Osanora still offers freedom of religion through their Nation, Sutica, but the official religion follows Canon

The Osanora ruler Felipe De Medina gifted land to the Bishop de Cordoba which was converted into an assistance facility. Commonly referred to as CSC the facility is home to the clergymen of Cordoba and aids the poor and abandoned of the world. There they are taught to live as a proper Osanorian should. 

Hey all, this is just a short quick list which will be updated over time! I really just want this so those of you interested in joining get a quick glimpse of what it will be like!

We pity you Felipe.

This party shall refuse to pay the 'debt' you have attempted to enforce upon us. Your attempt was to upheld Democracy in Osanora's darkest hour. You dare call our attempts a coup while you have overthrown your entire cabinet of government to have full control? Your words have been proven to be hypocritical. This paper is neither a threat or a congratulations. But we give you one peaceful demand. Retract your statements or the people who sign this will decide their actions based on their own merit. With hopes that most of them are peaceful. Do as you please

The following is a letter addressed to the people and clergymen of Osanora

"After reviewing the letter sent out by Bishop Hernando Altamirano, many of my worries regarding the leadership abilities of our new Bishop have left. He has a clear plan for our Diocese which will hopefully bring more involvement and support from our Mother Church. It seems as though just yesterday I was baptized in the Cathedral back in Providence, but since then I worried the Church had dismissed the true followers located in my lands. Bishop Hernando's arrival has proven otherwise showing their commitment not only to our leaders but our poor too. To honor this tremendous man of cloths arrival, I have decided to gift a plot of land in addition to our current church to be overseen by Bishop Hernando Altamirano directly. He may do what he wishes with this land, but I do pray he houses his headquarters on the land to better carry out his dreams and vision."

(Portrait of Padre Javier Francisco-Altamirano)

1782-1808

It comes with great sadness and heavy heart that I must write such a thing. Padre Javier, a man of the cloth has died at only 26 years old. He died after being thrown in a pit, thank GOD that the noble Father Basil Moroul has retrieved his badly damaged body. Due to the damages brought to his body, we will be having a closed casket funeral for the late priest. The late priest served as a faithful and spirited vicar for Providence, and a faithful and loyal servant to the true Hyspian state. Javier was an example of a true Hyspian, always sticking to his morals and the holy virtue. 

All are welcome to attend the funeral of the late priest, and to mourn his loss. 

Sit laus Deo,

A letter from Felipe to his people and the surrounding settlements

It has not been too long since I took control of Osanora following my fathers passing. While I still mourn for him I understand the duty that I now have; not only to my people but to my father as well. To lead, protect, and grow everything that he worked and cared for. This includes the people that make up our wonderful community despite all the challenges we were faced with. The time of my fathers passing was in the middle of the campaigns for our Corte positions that ultimately decide the current Osanora will flow down. While only recently elected to their positions they are making fine editions, taking it upon themselves to ensure each of their respective ministries are well tended to. I have high hopes for each and look forward to working with each to build a better Osanora!

    Of course this may raise a question I have often contemplated myself: Where do we go from here? I want to take a few moments to discuss future plans with Osanora. Understand my father knew that in order to prosper we had to plan extensively. As such he scouted out the surrounding land and took notes on every blade of grass, small pebble, and smallest grain of sand. We now have future plans for Osanora being drawn up as I write this. We expect to have the city planned within 2 years. While I have spent an extraordinary amount of time working on this project myself, I remind myself to stop getting so caught up in the future that I don't notice the hole in front of me. What kind of hole you may ask? We have many citizens and a bustling city. What we lack is merchants. 

We have empty shops and stalls left and right. This is a call to merchants from all corners of the world! Travel to Osanora, we offer cheap taxes and endless opportunities. We seek blacksmiths, hunters, tailors, and everything in between. You will quickly realize that Osanora is your new home when you settle into our cantina and enjoy light conversations with friends while treating yourself to our famous tacos and horchata.

This is my letter to all peoples of all nations, Osanora is continuing to grow, and si dios lo quiere we will become a successful settlement and serve our duty to our capital. Even if not to stay, travel to Osanora and try some of our local cuisine!

Felipe De Medina

Baron of Osanora

A representation of the fight at Osanoras La Cocina De Mama

Felipe De Medina had left Osanora without a care in the world. Hopping on the back of a horse he rode for the Capital of Sutica. After a long day of wandering and purchasing trivial trinkets from the local merchants he prepared himself to return home. Even at a distance he could tell something was off, he saw the cantina door damaged and through the windows he saw several chairs knocked over and -- blood? Practically jumping off his horse he did not bother tying her up. Instead he burst through the side door pausing briefly as he inhaled the metallic smell of blood. With tears springing to his eyes he yelled out "Papa!". Wandering to the side of the bar he saw the top of a head over the counter and ran towards it, nearly tripping over a chair. There on the floor sat his father, Antonio De Medina, stuffed between a wall and a chair with blood spilled all over him. Felipe collapsed on the floor ignoring the pain of the wooden floor as his knees dug into it. Crawling he reached his father praying he would move in the slightest bit. Latching onto his father he buried his head into Antonios shoulder, feeling his beard prickle his ears.
Only when Felipe had no more tears to give, did he look around the room. He found the comal on the counter bloody and a few of his fathers kitchen knives on the floor. This was no normal fight, the attack seemed to be a surprise, the kind only bandits could be responsible for. Felipe kicked a chair and spoke to his fathers corpse, "I will finish what was started si dios lo quiere. Osanora never suffers a bandit attack again papa." Felipe left the cantina to find someone to help him bury his father.

The "Private" Note would be open for the public.

To Baron Medina.

"Although my self has never seen you, I can say a few things about you.

You have neither the firmness of a man nor the gentleness of a woman! 

The fact that anyone would even find comfort in your presence amazes

me beyond belief, and the fact that people would even see you as sane 

makes me ponder also! If you have a heir, which I highly doubt you do 

since nobody even likes you, then your heir much be saddened to know 

that they have such a terrible parental figure as you. So please, perish

you excuse for a Valah."

-With Love, A very special Mali'ame.
